Iam just wondering, why we have to celebrate Halloween. What is the purpose?

I'm not big on traditional holiday celebrations. This year on Halloween I'm going to see a ballet production of Dracula. I don't live somewhere where I get a ton of trick or treaters and I don't enjoy costume parties, so I try to do something that I'll enjoy.

Well If your a Witch or Wiccan like me, Its the Witches New Year
called Samhain, a harvest Festival, a time when the veil between the living and the dead is thinnest. a time to honor the dead. Among other things

Why we "have" to celebrate Halloween? Is somebody forcing you to partake in Pagan holidays?

You don't HAVE to celebrate Halloween it stems from a pagan festival when they thpought thatevil spirits would come back from the dead on one night of the year to try and steal your body for their own use. and christians took it as their own, in order to have a reson for Mass on all saintsday (NOV1)
