Halloween pagan fall activities are a wicked trick and not a treat

The traditions of masquerading, trick or treating, jack-o-lanterns, and the many superstitions and symbols of Halloween are a trick and not a treat that came from pagan fall activities that were directed at appeasing spirits of the dead. It was never a true Christian observance. Names such as Samhain, All Hallows Eve, and Halloween have much in common, but the commonality is not found in Christianity. The Truth about Halloween explains how western societies arrived at this strange mixture of hallowed terms and pagan rites. It is a wicked and bitter trick disguised as a sweet treat.
