The Danger of Celebrating Halloween
By Kimberly Daniels
Guest Writer
CBN.com – Halloween—October 31—is considered a holiday in the United States. In fact, it rivals Christmas with regard to how widely celebrated it is. Stores that sell only Halloween-related paraphernalia open up a few months before the day and close shortly after it ends. But is Halloween a holiday that Christians should be observing?
The word "holiday" means "holy day." But there is nothing holy about Halloween. The root word of Halloween is "hallow," which means "holy, consecrated and set apart for service." If this holiday is hallowed, whose service is it set apart for? The answer to that question is very easy—Lucifer's!
Lucifer is a part of the demonic godhead. Remember, everything God has, the devil has a counterfeit. Halloween is a counterfeit holy day that is dedicated to celebrating the demonic trinity of : the Luciferian Spirit (the false father); the Antichrist Spirit (the false holy spirit); and the Spirit of Belial (the false son).
The key word in discussing Halloween is "dedicated." It is dedicated to darkness and is an accursed season. During Halloween, time-released curses are always loosed. A time-released curse is a period that has been set aside to release demonic activity and to ensnare souls in great measure.
You may ask, "Doesn't God have more power than the devil?" Yes, but He has given that power to us. If we do not walk in it, we will become the devil's prey. Witchcraft works through dirty hearts and wrong spirits.
During this period demons are assigned against those who participate in the rituals and festivities. These demons are automatically drawn to the fetishes that open doors for them to come into the lives of human beings. For example, most of the candy sold during this season has been dedicated and prayed over by witches.
Even the colors of Halloween (orange, brown and dark red) are dedicated. These colors are connected to the fall equinox, which is around the 20th or 21st of September each year and is sometimes called "Mabon." During this season witches are celebrating the changing of the seasons from summer to fall. They give praise to the gods for the demonic harvest. They pray to the gods of the elements (air, fire, water and earth).
Mother earth is highly celebrated during the fall demonic harvest. Witches praise mother earth by bringing her fruits, nuts and herbs. Demons are loosed during these acts of worship. When nice church folk lay out their pumpkins on the church lawn, fill their baskets with nuts and herbs, and fire up their bonfires, the demons get busy. They have no respect for the church grounds. They respect only the sacrifice and do not care if it comes from believers or non-believers.
Gathering around bonfires is a common practice in pagan worship. As I remember, the bonfires that I attended during homecoming week when I was in high school were always in the fall. I am amazed at how we ignorantly participate in pagan, occult rituals.
The gods of harvest that the witches worship during their fall festivals are the Corn King and the Harvest Lord. The devil is too stupid to understand that Jesus is the Lord of the Harvest 365 days a year. But we cannot be ignorant of the devices of the enemy. When we pray, we bind the powers of the strong men that people involved in the occult worship.
Halloween is much more than a holiday filled with fun and tricks or treats. It is a time for the gathering of evil that masquerades behind the fictitious characters of Dracula, werewolves, mummies and witches on brooms. The truth is that these demons that have been presented as scary cartoons actually exist. I have prayed for witches who are addicted to drinking blood and howling at the moon.
While the lukewarm and ignorant think of these customs as "just harmless fun," the vortexes of hell are releasing new assignments against souls. Witches take pride in laughing at the ignorance of natural men (those who ignore the spirit realm).
Decorating buildings with Halloween scenes, dressing up for parties, going door-to-door for candy, standing around bonfires and highlighting pumpkin patches are all acts rooted in entertaining familiar spirits. All these activities are demonic and have occult roots.
The word "occult" means "secret." The danger of Halloween is not in the scary things we see but in the secret, wicked, cruel activities that go on behind the scenes. These activities include:
Sex with demons
Orgies between animals and humans
Animal and human sacrifices
Sacrificing babies to shed innocent blood
Rape and molestation of adults, children and babies
Revel nights
Conjuring of demons and casting of spells
Release of "time-released" curses against the innocent and the ignorant.
Another abomination that goes on behind the scenes of Halloween is necromancy, or communication with the dead. Séances and contacting spirit guides are very popular on Halloween, so there is a lot of darkness lurking in the air.
However, Ephesians 1:19-21 speaks of the authority of the believer and the exceeding greatness of God's power in us (the same power that raised Christ from the dead). It goes on to say that that Jesus is seated in heavenly places far above all principalities, power, might, dominions and every name that is named. The good news is that because we are seated in heavenly places with Jesus, the same demonic activity that is under His feet is under our feet, too!
People who worship the devil continue to attempt to lift him up. But he has already been cast out and down! Many are blinded to this fact, but the day will come when all will know he has been defeated once and for all.
When we accept Jesus but refuse to renounce Satan and his practices, we are neither hot nor cold but lukewarm—and the Word says that God will spit us out of His mouth. The problem with lukewarm is that it attempts to mix the things of the devil with the things of God. It is God's desire that we serve Him alone.
Second Corinthians 6:15 asks the question, "And what agreement has Christ with Belial?" As believers, we need to answer that question in our hearts. We must avoid the very appearance of evil. I would not want a demon spirit to mistake me for an occult worshiper.
There is no doubt in my heart that God is not calling us to replace fall festivals and Halloween activities; rather, He wants us to utterly destroy the deeds of this season. If you or your family members have opened the door to any curses that are released during the demonic fall festivals, renounce them and repent. I already have. Then declare with me: "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord!"

wow...too funny! Who are you by the way?

Here's the thing though. If they claim to be walking in true spiritual authority over evil, then it doesn't matter what the witches say. Good always overcomes against evil. A person walking in true spiritual power can nullify what a witch does or says with relative ease. I know these things, I am ahol888, the coolest dwarf in the world.

lol. you're also the funniest.

Me? Just someone who found this site while looking for the text of Ms. Daniels' Halloween drivel. My husband suggested I look in Google's cache for it & I thought I would share. Phooey on CBN for taking down the page!

oh and welcome to the site and thanks for posting the article.

oh ok. I got all paranoid. I made fun of witches and the article and you showed up oout of no where.

wwooooooohhhhhooooooooooo --- :)
Allvoices is coming up on a lot of search pages lately - pretty cool!

yeah did yo notice that too. I came across it while researching something for work yesterday.

that is creepy and a thought people may want to consider.But i agree with Ahol and good can beat evil!

Good can beat evil, but it is not an easy task

Excellant quote "The Danger Of Celebrating Halloween" about this terrible unholy day called Halloween. Thank you very much for sharing it. Welcome SallyM to allvoice.com. I have a feeling you are going to be a very productive and positive member. God bless.

A pope invented Halloween.

hahaha oh my god... ridiculous!

Great post, really funny. I'm going to go to the store today and put a curse on all of the candy, ...You know, in case any of the witches missed some.

lol...be sure to get the ones that aren't marked as Halloween candy as well.

>_> How did they even come up with something like that...

HMMMM, I am a little disturbed by this for many reasons, and they are not limited to the following, but for brevity sake, I'll post the most important ones:
1) I didn't read the site or the news articles about this on the net because it was so dumb and cheesy. Then a respected writer Amalgam80 posted it so I had to see what all the fuss was about. It's still cheesy and stupid to think witches can curse candy.(a seasonal marketing ploy for sure!)
2)I hate Halloween because it is a pagan holiday. But this is was WAAAAAY overboard and makes Christians look like freaks like Islam extremists. Thanks CBN for coloring that picture to the world, really.
3)I have my entire house full of orange, brown, and red. I love fall colors. It is a timeless household color decor and has a lot of resale value. I never thought for once my conservative Christian home was the color of witches and demons.
4) my wedding was in the fall and in those colors. My spouse affectionately refered to the colors as the three colors of crap. However, it wasn't mentioned as witch colors and I don't think the 150+ old farts that attended the wedding thought they were in a cult. They just thought we were hippies, and that's probably partially true.
5)This is saying that witches exist AND they have power. Unless you are a non cable channel with dorky witch shows all year around like Eastwick, they don't have power, and they don't exist, and no one cares about them. Only poeple like my spouse watch those stupid shows and find that entertaining.

I would rather eat Pagan candy than X~tian candy anyday...

Pagan candy tastes better and doesn't come w/ any insecurity nor guilt!

Peace ~LunaWolf~

I'm respected...thanks. I had no idea. That made me feel good.


Everyone reading this article should also drop over at AKADE's article about people living in caged apartments in Hong Kong. That's a real horror story.

Let me apologize for all the typos and bad grammar (as if grammar in other articles written by me was just fine) in this article. For some reason Allvoices isn't allowing me to edit the article without erasing it, so the typos stay.

hahaha oh my god... ridiculous

I have three little kids who went to bed crying their eyes out because Halloween is now cancelled. Geez, this after a huge Halloween party at school too.

Bummer- Those costumes cost more than the candy. I look at it this way.. I LOVE CHOCOLATE...since no one will eat the cursed candy - that's going to leave a lot of Baby Ruth's for ME!! ah-ha-ha-ha-ha.

Just kidding, my zombie, my dead cheerleader and my fairy princess will all be out in force tomorrow!

Halloween is a fun night for kids. I don't consider it a holiday - just a day to play and have some really fun QT with the kids!

yeah, I think events like Halloween need to be called something else, not Holidays. It confuses people. Even though Halloween in a way is backed by the Catholic church and is a Holy Day, but still, it isn't anymore, at least not in the U.S.

wow. Sometimes, People must belive what people told them on halloween night as children.

I hate this place

there should be a proof before an allegation.
