HALLOWEEN AT MAISLABYRINTH LIEDERBACH, 26.10. - 02.11.2024

In autumn, the horror and scary maze is transformed. The Horror Labyrinth is open to visitors aged 16 and over. The monsters provide fear and terror at 15 stations. There is also a Halloween party from 7 p.m. with a DJ who plays until around 00:30!

This, according to legend, allowed the souls of the deceased to return to the world for one day on that very day. To appease the evil spirits, people made sacrifices, but often magic and sorcery were consulted to appease the spirits or, if possible, even keep them away altogether. The tradition of dressing up on Halloween also dates back to this time. By doing so, people wanted to make themselves unrecognizable so as not to be recognized by the spirits roaming that night and to enter the New Year, which began on November 1 according to the Celtic calendar, unscathed.

After the festival was first Christianized, the custom came to the United States from Ireland in the 19th century. Here, Halloween moved more and more away from its origins over time and became increasingly commercialized, especially in the 20th century. Today it is one of the most important celebrations in America, along with Thanksgiving and Christmas.

A small candle or tea light is then placed inside the pumpkin, and it is best to place the candle in an old canning jar. This will keep some of the heat from the candle flame out and keep the inside wall of the pumpkin from drying out too quickly. Jack-o-lanterns that have already dried out a bit before October 31 can be refreshed by a longer water bath, by the way.

Because the pumpkin is the central symbol of Halloween, especially in the U.S. on October 31, pumpkin foods are of course also traditionally on every menu. No Halloween feast is complete without pumpkin pie, cream of pumpkin soup, or some other delicious pumpkin dish. If you're looking to sweeten up Halloween with delicious pumpkin dishes this year, here are two suggestions:

Preparation

First, the most thankless task: you need to peel and seed the squash, then cut it into small, bite-sized cubes. Skin the tomatoes (best to put them in boiling water for a very short time for this) and cut these into small cubes, or slices, too, just like the carrots. Now also cut the onion into fine cubes and sauté them in the butter. Now add the diced tomatoes and let the whole thing boil down a bit. Now add the carrots, the pumpkin cubes and the vegetable stock, season the whole thing with herb salt and curry (dosage according to your own taste) and pour in about 1500 ml of water. Let it all cook at medium heat for about 15 minutes until soft. The now soft vegetables must now be pureed, and the pumpkin soup is ready. Then just refine with the cream and the ginger and sprinkle with the chopped parsley. Yummy!

2. Pumpkin goulash

Ingredients

About 1kg giant pumpkin
. 650g pork shoulder
¼ l sour cream
1 onion
1 tbsp grated red pepper
2 tbsp vinegar
50 g lard
40 g flour
1 tomato
1 tbsp tomato paste
salt
pepper
Cumin

Preparation

First, the real horror - you'll need to shred vigorously: The squash (either grate it or slice it into fine strips), the tomato, the onion, and the meat. After you've completed this rather thankless task, lightly sauté the onion in a large pot. Add the meat, cut into small cubes, and fry until it takes on some colour. Then add half of the paprika powder and the vinegar, as well as the tomato, the tomato paste and season the whole thing with salt, pepper and - depending on your taste - also with some caraway seeds.

Pour everything now with 5 tablespoons of water. If you want to intensify the taste, you can also use some strong broth instead of the water.

The delicious mixture must now steam for about 25 minutes.

Now mix the pumpkin with the meat and then add the rest of the peppers and vinegar. Again, you will now need to add water or broth to this and let it steam up. Now mix the sour cream with the flour, add it to the pumpkin goulash and let it boil away. If necessary, you can now add a little more seasoning and then serve the finished goulash. Particularly delicious taste to it of course - how should it be different on Halloween - delicious potatoes.

In this sense, we wish you spooky and tasty Halloween!
