Welcome to Issue 126 of Iceni Magazine!
This month’s magazine focuses on Hallowe’en - love it or hate it, you won’t be able to escape it come the end of the month. Wonder why people enjoy watching scary films? The science of our desire for fear is explored on Pages 36 and 37. Susan Leigh shares some of the history of Halloween with us, considering the who, what and why of the festival (Pages 30 & 31). If you’re struggling with ideas, time and money for a costume, Pages 32 and 33 share some simple suggestions.
Elsewhere in this issue, Charlie reviews her experience of a Vampire facial – it certainly sounds topical for this time of year (Pages 18 & 19). Motoring writer, Tim, reviews the Ford Focus ST with added track pack – check out what he thinks on Pages 14 and 15.
