Isn’t Halloween also 1 of the 4 times that the witches get together? I know that another one is called Lama’s night, which is the 1st August.

Brattd,
I have not heard that bit of lore, nor have I heard of Lama’s night. There are connections between August and the Day of the Dead in Mexico and other places, but witches aren’t involved in that. I’ll keep my ears open, and in the meantime, please enjoy upcoming episodes on witches.
And thank you for listening.
