The people of Wyrdham take Halloween very seriously; it's even more popular than Christmas, and it's much more than just a night for trick-or-treating. The Wyrdham Historical Society, whose members are descendants of the town's founders, host an annual ceremony at a very special tree down at the town square. All of the town's schools and banks are closed on November 1 as well, so that everyone in Wyrdham can stay up late on Halloween to honor their ancestors. For most families in Wyrdham, the festival of Samhain is the single most important night of the year.
