You're welcome! I really wanted to make this story as Halloweeny as possible, and so I included the spirit of Halloween himself.

One interesting fact is that despite the spelling it's pronounced Sow-en. The reason for the spelling with an m was due to bad translation of Celtic text. I also mention the rules, and I just now remembered that I originally was going to have a bit more of a detailed conversation, where Samhain explains the rules of Halloween in more detail, such as the thing of wearing costumes originated so that the spirits walking the Earth would think you're one of them, and they'll leave you alone. I forgot about this while I was writing, but I still think it's fine without it
