No I do not because the origin of Halloween and the fact that it is honoring spirits of the dead as if they were alive in another realm. This is contrary to the Bible's description,at Eccl. 9:5, 10 of death is a state of complete unconsciousness.

Some christians I know celebrate it as Harvest Day and decorate with smiling pumpkins and happy little cats. But I know some who decorate with coffins and skulls dressed as Vampires and Devils. I think it all depends on the person really.

if the nuns at my catholic school give me candy on Halloween then Halloween is okay w/ me, besides it's really more for kids to run around. But the meaning behind Halloween is like all saints day-a chance to remember the dead, your love ones that past away. And supposedly Halloween is the day they walk among the earth and people dress like that so that the really dead ppl can disguise themselves among us.

Yes, I do,though I am not sure why. I don't really celebrate it but I do have treats for the children.

Um Halloween is not a devil holiday!! People dress up in fire fighter outfits and as angels and princesses and fairies. Not just witches and goblins and devils. Halloween is just a holiday to have fun. You make it how you see it.
