Samhain + Halloween Sound Bath in the Forest

An outdoor Halloween + Samhain Sound Bath where cult-classic camp, gothic whimsy, botanical oddities, candlelight, seasonal ritual, forest wandering, food, costumes, and sound meet beneath the trees. Cat’s live violin will weave familiar Halloween melodies with eerie, atmospheric violin work and original seasonal compositions through the forest.

4:00 PM · Follow the glow into the evening

The arrival hour is part of the experience, a slow transition from ordinary Saturday into a handmade Halloween world. Wander through our candlelit wizarding walk-up and fairy houses, visit the candy station and Wild Indigo + Cat & Owl Alchemy apothecaries, enjoy Halloween-inspired bites and seasonal libations, settle into your sound-bath nest, walk the forest, and explore the seasonal spiral labyrinth.

At the fire pit, you may burn a safe paper offering representing what you are ready to release, then pause at the center of the spiral to call in what you want to welcome for the season ahead. You are also invited to bring a small meaningful object or photograph of an ancestor or loved one who has passed for the shared altar. Please take personal objects home afterward.

5:00 PM · Sound + Reiki beneath the trees

There is no expectation that you perform relaxation. Shift, sit up, lie down, step away, get water, care for a child, cough, cry, or move however your body needs. The sound field is there to meet you, not grade you.

Trick or Treat? 🎃

We’ll have a playful Halloween spread of snacks, sweets, and small bites. This is not intended to be a full meal or dinner, so please eat beforehand if you need something substantial.

• Candy station for adults + children, with a clearly separated gluten-free + vegan selection alongside traditional candy.
• Confirmed persimmon pudding bites.
• Halloween-themed non-alcoholic Jell-O shots for all ages and distinctly separated alcoholic Jell-O shots for guests 21+.

Choose your nest

Dress for beauty. Pack for cold.

This experience is planned outdoors, weather permitting. Late October can turn chilly quickly once the light drops. Bring more warmth than you think you need: thermals, sweaters, warm socks, coats, gloves, hats, sturdy shoes, blankets, comforters, or sleeping bags. Layer under your costume rather than sacrificing warmth for the look.

The gathering grass will be kept very short and treated with Saturday Lime as part of our outdoor prep. Wild Indigo’s homemade bug spray will also be available. This is still a living forest, so the occasional insect, breeze, leaf, acorn, or curious bit of nature may make a cameo.

Arrival + accessibility

Please use the full one-hour arrival window beginning at 4:00 PM. Parking is spread across several areas of the property, with the closest Knob N’ Wood spaces reserved for guests who need additional mobility support. Shuttle service begins once the Upper Ridge Sun Lot is full, with overflow support from the Forest Lot and Knobstone Trailhead area. Event-specific parking details will be sent before the gathering.

If you have dietary, sensory, mobility, or accessibility needs, please tell us before the gathering so we can plan thoughtfully with you.
