Hi all,
Growing up, Halloween was nothing more than your ‘clean’ Halloween fun…dressing up in ‘cute’ costumes, trick-or-treating, and the like. The ‘scariest’ things I ever encountered were ghosts/goblins/dracula/etc. of “Scooby-Doo”-level. (I hope that makes sense).
I have never had a ‘bad’ feeling about Halloween as a kid/teenager.
I learned in young adult about the other side of Halloween. But, still, since I’ve been a good Catholic, and hang out with Catholic friends, I was never directly in touch with the other side, nor did I run out to see all those scary movies.
But it seems like the other side of Halloween is popping up everywhere now. A lot of decorations that people are using are way beyond the Scooby-Doo-level phantom level.
I have a friend who lives at an apartment complex, and one of her neighbors has these decorations that look extremely demonic. I go out of my way now so I don’t have to look at these.
Is this happening in your part of the country?
I guess we should amp up our prayer this time of year against the occult/witchcraft/etc.
