How is it that this overly commercialized, religiously contentious, and politically fractious holiday unites us in a community based on fantasy and fear; and what draws us together on this one night when we open our doors to strangers? Drawing on research from her latest book, Halloween Nation: Behind the Scenes of America's Fright Night, Bannatyne looks at who celebrates Halloween and what gives it an important and relevant place in our 21st century culture.
