Honestly, we do not celebrate Halloween due to the pagan origins. However, as a child we did go trick or treating and did not know anything other than to dress up and go door-to-door for treats. As Christians, my husband, children and I, just cannot engage in any Halloween activities.

So, where is the written proof of this pagan holiday? And what god did they worship? What is the pagan symbol of the pumkin?

You seem to have gotten through it okay and are now a Christian. Might not your kids do the same?

What did you teach your kids to call the days of the week, or the constellations?

Me either. I make up a nice bag of dollar store stuff and a little candy for my two darling granddaughters and don't bother with it otherwise. We live in an upstairs apartment and I just lock the doors. I'm not a meany, I just hate Halloween. It's a satanic holiday.
