What really is Halloween?
The roots of Halloween date back almost 2,000 years to the Celtic festival of Samhain, which marked the gathering of the harvest and the start of a new year.
Many believe Halloween to be an American holiday for children due to the consumerism. A recent survey said that 20% of public said that it’s a chance to get dressed up. 33.3% said that it’s something for the children. And 30% of people interested believe it to be a religious festival or a celebration of evil. Celebrated throughout many cultures, Halloween has become a major date on the calendar. Children dress up and parents take them trick or treating. However there are people who shut themselves away from this holiday. Is it fair to impose on these people with children’s traditions?

For many children it is simply the time of the year to don fancy dress in the home or charming the neighbors out of a few sweets.

But a church magazine has shocked parents by warning their children would be 'siding with the devil' if they go trick or treating this Halloween.
