    Halloween dates back over 2000 years to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced Sown). November 1st, the Celtic new year, marked the end of summer and harvest and the beginning of a long, cold, dark winter for Celts, who inhabited areas that are now known as Ireland, the United Kingdom and northern France. This time of year in particular was associated with human death and Celts believed that on the night before new year, the boundaries between the worlds of the living and the dead became murky and blurred. On the evening of October 31st, Celts and Druids would celebrate Samhain, where it was believed that the ghosts of the deceased returned to earth, by building large bonfires where people gathered to burn crops and animals as a sacrifice to the Celtic deities. The Celts wore costumes, such as animal heads and skins, they attempted to tell each other’s fortunes and when the celebrations were over, the fires were re-lit to protect them during winter.

    The idea of being murdered by a complete stranger is a significant fear that has been mentioned several times on this podcast, however, more recently, has been discussed at length in the news and on social media following the murder of Sarah Everard. This horrific murder has solidified women’s fear around walking alone in the dark, and has ignited significant conversations surrounding women’s trepidations and how men can make us feel safer. According to a recent survey by UN Women UK, 97% of women in the UK have experienced sexual harassment.

    A huge thank you to Mel from Mask of Sanity and Bobbie from Killer Stories for their voice over for this episode.

    If you have any information relating to Cherrie's disappearance, you are urged to contact Pennsylvania police's Missing Person Unit on 724-284-8100.

    It’s impossible to put an exact number on the amount of stranger abductions in the US in the 1980s. Child Find, a missing children organisation, suggested the number was roughly 600 per year, with the FBI reporting 67 cases and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children holding records for 142 cases of stranger abduction. Law enforcements suggested that 95% of missing children in the 1980s were runaway teens, who typically returned home within 3 days. The majority of the rest of that proportion are parental abductions who are in custody disputes and only a small minority of missing children are actually abducted by a complete stranger.
