Vintage Halloween Dance

I love Halloween. My husband and I were married on this magical day. Halloween, in my opinion, has gotten a bad rap recently in some quarters as being evil. Sad. This day, or should I say night, is enchanted, but evil? Never.

Folks from yesteryear understood that ghosts and goblins should be given a healthy respect, but if well treated they could be interesting party guests. Much like living humans. :-)

Here is an old invite caption:

"At Hallowe'en a dance I'm giving, Come mingle with the dead and living; For I'm inviting spooks as well, Who will impart a magic spell."

And the accompanying graphic:



Now that doesn't look scary, does it?
