Halloween's roots go way back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain.

It marked the end of summer and the beginning of winter, a time when the veil between the living and the dead was believed to be thin.

Happy Halloween 🎃 🖤🎃

Warning ⚠️
The instagram user name is NO LONGER my account.

The username originally was flintireland. The hackers added the underscore. See the accompanying pic.

It was hacked a year ago when I responded to a friend's request asking me to vote for them.

Most of you have unfollowed it. I see the numbers have dropped by about 600 .

I have reported it to instagram on a number of occasions and sadly, it is active again and the hackers are up to their old tricks asking people to vote for "me".
Please take these steps

⚠️Unfollow
⚠️Block them
⚠️ Report them to instagram.
