The harvest celebrators saw Halloween as someone else's holiday. When my children were in preschool, both Jewish and Christian schools objected to Halloween. The Jewish preschool teachers explained to me, a Christian, that Halloween celebrated a Christian holiday, All Saint's Day. Though I grew up Catholic, this was news to me, but OK, no Halloween party in Jewish preschool. One year later, in a Christian preschool: no Halloween party because Halloween was a devil-worshipping, Satanic holiday

Actually October 31 is All Souls Day. All Saints Day is today November 1

All Souls Day is November 2nd... Halloween is All Hallows Eve, a Holy Eve, as it is the eve of All Saints Day...
