Traditionally, Nos Galan Gaeaf is the night before Calan Gaeaf (first day of winter) observed on 1af o Dachwedd (1st November).
 
Our ancestors believed that on Nos Galan Gaeaf, evil spirits would be able to visit from their world. People would avoid churchyards and any places where they thought spirits would gather.

One rhyme tells of how the last child out on Nos Galan Gaeaf would be eaten by this terrifying beast!

"Home, home at once, the tailless black sow shall snatch the last!"
