Samhain is the Day of the Dead when the veil stands at it's thinnest and the doorways to the Underworld stand open. It may be possible to commune with the ancestors at that time. Doorways - traditionally, caves and springs. Samhain Eve is the best time.
I did this last year at a sinkhole on the High Cross Fell in the Pennines and will be doing so again this year in another location, the Buttertubs Pass in the Dales. [ getting lazy - easier climb this year ! ]
