So why do people have to drag Satan into Halloween? Why should believe its all evil and sinister?
I found this site to be interesting thought I'd pass it along as a side note to those who might be interested:

It has nothing to do with Satan, pre se but, with All Saints Days, a Mexican festival honoring the loved ones that have passed before you. There fore, people in time have changed it to an "evil" practice but, ignore them.

It was traditionally the one day of the year when the gates of Hell were opened and ghouls and spirits were allowed to roam free. This is followed by All Souls' Day when the demons return home and the saints and angels come out and play. It's a Christian compromise of older festivals, like Christmas.

People don't know how to have fun. While the day's origins have been debated, I know for sure it is supposed to be a day to have FUN.

I dunno, I think it's just a fun day to put on a hat.
