As darkness falls across the land
there's a stillness in the air
The midnight hour closes in
the Hallow's Eve is here.

Eerie houses decorated
with lanterns on the door
Skeletons, pumpkins, black cats
and evil witches galore.

Wizards, witches, ghosts and goblins
lining the darkened streets
As children go door to door
calling "Trick or treat"!

Costume parties and fancy dress
enjoyed by everyone
The haunted house, the ouija board
all seem like harmless fun.

But the candy coating of Halloween
what others do not know
Belongs to something sinister
though the attraction grows.

Beyond astrology and sorcery
the devil's greatest deceit
To cast a spell upon the world
he asks us "trick or treat?"

A sinister day with occultic roots
a pagan worship day
Honours false gods and Satan
in a celebratory way.

Harmful for what it stands for
the violence, death and fear
It emphasises the occult
on this day each year.

The night of nights for witchcraft
the occult's spirit forms
Halloween belongs to this
to which none of us were born.

Children of God, can't you see
the evil behind this day?
To celebrate is to agree
with the occultic ways.

And as God's love shines upons us,
the devil in his deceit
Brings halloween to the world
and luring, "trick or treat?"

"Halloween is fun time for many people ~ a time when they can dress in costumes and so forth for parties and trick or treating.  But beneath the facade of witches costumes, magic potions and tricks is a very sinister and evil world, directly connected to the occult and satanism.   It was celebrated amongst the ancient people before Christ (BC), with sacrifices to SAMAN (Shamhain) "the lord of death and evil spirits".  We have seen the modern day Saman, the pagan god as a ghostly, skeleton holding a sickle in his hand.   He later came to be known as "The Grim Reaper". "
 

I have some scriptures for those who wish to confirm the belief of what the Occcult is and what God says about it, and for us:
One of the ten commandments is that we have no idols and worship no other God.
Exodus 20:3-6
"You must have no other Gods before Me.  You must not make for yourselves and idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.  You shall not bow down to them for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, and will punish the children for their sins of the fathers throughout generations of those who hate Me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep my commandments."

In Deuteronomy 18:10-13 warned that God's children were to have nothing
to do with the OCCULT.
"Let no one be found among you who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead.  Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD and because of these detestable practices the LORD your God will drive out those nations before you.  You must be blameless before the LORD your God."

1 Thessalonians 5:22
"Abstain from all appearances of evil."

2 Corinthians 6:14-17
"You are not the same as as those who do not believe.  So do not join yourselves to them.  Good and bad do not belong together.  Light and darkness cannot share together.  How can Christ and the devil have any agreement? What can a believer have together with a non-believer? The temple of God cannot have any agreement with idols and we are the temple of the living God.  As God said: 'I will live with them and walk with them.  And I will be their God and they will be my people.   Leave those people and be seperate' says the Lord.  'Touch nothing that is unclean in my eyes and I will be your Father and you will be my sons and daughters'."
