4 Halloween myths that simply aren’t true<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s October and the Halloween Myths are circulating around again. There\u2019s a lot of spooky and even ridiculous things that people believe about\u00a0Halloween. While the jury is still out on whether Pennywise actually walks around in our storm drains, there are a few things that aren\u2019t\u00a0true.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Myth number 1<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

People are poisoning your candy. Despite claims of poison, razor blades and LSD being planted in candy over the years, there has only been one proven case of candy poisoning and that was back in 1974.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Halloween Myth number 2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Black cats are in danger of being killed or sacrificed. The ASPCA says, “while it is\u00a0true\u00a0that animals too often become the victims of holiday pranks and cruelty, there is no reason to believe that witches are involved, so this Halloween Myth is debunked..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jack -O- Lanterns Myth number 3<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Halloween\u00a0is all about pumpkins.\u00a0Halloween\u00a0historian, Nicholas Rogers, says jack-o-lanterns were initially carved from turnips, with a candle put inside to represent a soul trapped in purgatory.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sleepy Hollow Halloween Myth number 4<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is a\u00a0Halloween\u00a0story. It’s not. Washington Irving\u2019s novel never mentioned\u00a0Halloween\u00a0at all. The holiday wasn\u2019t\u00a0even widely celebrated at the time. Although it is fair to say a headless horseman is terrifying no matter what the season.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
