You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

For example, most of the candy sold during this season has been dedicated and prayed over by witches.

Well, yeah. How do you think we can afford to wage the war on Christmas? We sell cursed Halloween candy. It's simple capitalism, people.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The actual CBN blog post: The Danger of Celebrating Halloween

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).

Wait, this is getting complicated.

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.

Like time-release pills? Cool!

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.

...

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.

So... she's prayed for zero witches?

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.

Boy, the Halloween parties she goes too are a lot different than the ones I've been to.

So you've never spent a Halloween night assembling Revell plastic models?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

You haven't been to ours.

She totally got her candy stolen and was stuffed in a trashcan as a kid. Every year.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I loved Silk Stalkings, even as I knew it was crap. Never saw Forever Knight until cable reruns though--was Silk Stalkings paired with anything else?

Sweating Bullets was the one I loved.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That whole post doesn't even mention Samhain? Hilarious.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I checked Wikipedia--I'm not sure I ever saw Silk Stalkings on CBS. I'm pretty sure it was USA only, since I only came to the States in 93 and none of the other Crimetime shows look familiar.
