I think so, because it's celebrating Satan. Am I right? Is it a sin? God Bless anyone who answers!

Halloween did not originate with satan, It is the celebration of the harvest, which is no sin. who says you can't have fun on Halloween. Example: this is what we do on Halloween. Have lasagna, sit in front of the TV and watch Halloween movies which include It's the great pumpkin Charlie brown,The Legend of sleepy Hollow, Narrated by Bing Crosby, Hocus pocus, Love at First bite, and if Most Haunted Has a special, I will watch that. You see, these movies are other animated or a comedy. Plus we make pumpkin seeds. You can celebrate Halloween without including you know who.

it's funny when I was a kid the church we went to and I should say most churches had Halloween party's, then some where down the line the far right made it evil and stuff.
I also remember a church youth group that had one of the best haunted houses ever back in the 70's it was called Scream In The Dark. 2 big barns they used.............awww the good old days.
now to answer your question All Hallows Eve can be what ever you want it to be I call it fun if you want to demonize it go right ahead miss out on all the fun.

Mark 7:13: "Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye."
1 Peter 2:9: "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light
Ephesians 5:6-12: "Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. 7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them. 8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: 9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. 11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. 12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret

It does not celebrate Satan. Satan is a Christian figure and the origin of the holiday is pagan, who do not believe in your devil.
It's the ancient festival of Samhain, the Celtic new year.
This pagan holiday serves a very important and healthy psychological function. It's the holiday that acknowledges the death aspect of the life cycle (all pagan holidays celebrate some aspect of the life cycle), and invites people to 'walk around in its shoes' so to speak. By dressing up as symbols of the things we fear, and by allowing ourselves to be frightened (as in haunted houses), we acknowledge and embrace our fears and therefore, gain a better understanding of them.
This brings our fear into light and removes its power to make us afraid. So you see, it helps us process the fear and change it into something manageable. The holiday also celebrates the hope of an afterlife, so it's not just about fear either. This is why it's so fun and exciting, and good to participate in.
It leave it to you to decide if it's okay for you to celebrate.

all hallows Eve is a catholic holiday not a pagan one. Pagan holidays are NOT celebrating Satan! let me ask you this. do you during Christmas put up a tree in your house? do you exchange gifts? do you sing any carols? If you said yes to any of them then what you do for Christmas is no different then what people do for halloween but all of those things i listed are stolen for Yule a Pagan holiday.
