Jewish Connections to Halloween, Part II

By Sandi Masori

SAN DIEGO — In Part II of our Jewish Halloween series (seen above) , I interview Rabbi Scott Meltzer of Congregation Ohr Shalom, and he shares with us some of the parallels between our Jewish observances and Halloween and Dia De Los Muertos.

Some of these parallels include the full moon, honoring our ancestors and the use of candles.
