This week I wanted to introduce a short one-week series on Halloween! During these fall months that are numerous different celebrations and activities celebrated all around the world! One that is known globally is Halloween. On Sunday, October 31st, and throughout this weekend thousands of people will be dressing up and going out to partake in this celebration/ holiday!
This week I will highlight how both psychology and this holiday meld together, and what psychology can tell us about ourselves when it comes to Halloween.
Our first blog post will focus on an NPR article entitled “Halloween Provides A Look Into Human Psychology” where we learn about human behavior.
In the second blog post, I will highlight a Psychology today article which suggests why Halloween can be therapeutic!
