I did as a kid thought it was fun til I grew up became a Christian then realised what it meant! My Children don't celebrate it at all as we are originally from a Jewish Background I am the only Christian.

I enjoyed every second of Halloween, I never stopped celebrating & continue to dress my home & wear costumes every year & my children really enjoy it as much as I did/do. We have a lot of traditions; pumpkin patch visit, putting out lights & decorations at the house, choosing or making the perfect costumes, picking out what kind of candy to hand out. It's all about fun & it is a good time for making memories. I got the love of it from my mom, who passed away 11/28/06 - so we'll be really missing her this year.

You kinda should if you have a kid old enough to dress up and trick or treat, but we don't do a whole lot. My son dresses up and we tend to go back to my old street to trick or treat as many of the grown-up, moved away kids have done, but my dad is with us this year. We put 3 lighted jacko' lanterns in the window and that's the end of it. It's not the "evil" celebration that some think. Originally, it was a religious holiday, All Hallows Eve, before All Saints Day on November 1st.

Yes, I went trick or treating every year, except the one my parents grounded me, until I was 13. And now that I have a kid we're looking forward to our fourth year of trick or treating. When he's too old, I'm planning my haunted house, or to have more kids!

I did as a kid. I don't have my own kids yet, but I take all the young friend and family members, so I still get to be in the atmosphere every year.

i celebrated it as a child and i loved it. i had so much fun w/ my friends. i celebrate it now with my two boys. although you have to be a lot safer now with all those creeps out there. our church has a harvest fest. we don't allow our boys to dress in satanic costums or demonic such as the grim repor, devil, witches,....and they love it. they play games and win candy and that way we know that it is safe.

No I do not celebrate Halloween, I don't see the purpose of putting so much energy in celebrating a day that is all about evil.
