Five saints are associated with supernatural experiences during the Halloween season

Matt McDonald noted in the National Catholic Register that the stories of certain saints align with modern themes of ghosts and cemeteries.

Saint Joan of Arc is described as a patron of Catholic apparitions because she claimed to hear the voices of Saint Michael, Saint Catherine, and Saint Margaret. Saint Faustina Kowalska recorded in her diary that she saw Saint Joseph, Saint Michael, and Saint Barbara.

Other figures include Saint Benedict, who reportedly appeared in Fleury, France, during the 10th century to threaten to leave a monastery, and Saint Catherine, whose friends reported seeing paradise at her death. A confessor also reported a vision of the saint's earthly sufferings during Mass the day after she died.
