English: In the Halloween series, the Curse of Thorn is often associated with a constellation that could appear during Halloween. In the time of the Druids, to prevent mass death among the tribes, one family was chosen to be possessed by Thorn. It would then sacrificially murder it‘s host entire family on the night of Samhain (All Hallow's Eve), which in turn it would promise to spare their community from disastrous events such as plague and drought. This possession also appears to give the cursed inhuman strength and immunity from death.
