Happy Walpurgis/Vappu all. Hope you are having a blessed day & are able to honour & celebrate the coming springtime. "Walpurgisnacht Traditions In line with the belief that Walpurgis Night was a night when witches and other evil entities were roaming freely around the land, certain practices were developed to keep them at bay. Thus, in Germany, on Walpurgis Night, people would dress up in costumes, and make loud noises. Additionally, to ward off these malevolent forces, people would also hang blessed sprigs of foliage from houses or barns, or leave offerings of bread with butter and honey (known as ‘ankenschnitt’) for phantom hounds ."- https://www.ancient-origins.net/history-ancient-traditions/walpurgis-night-0010965 n/WalpurgisNacht
