And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy;
and between unclean and clean.
Leviticus 10:10
"It is well known that the term "Halloween" associated with this date is a contraction of "Hallowed Evening," so-called because in the early medieval church, it was the evening for the vigil before "All Saints Day" on November 1, when all the designated "saints" of the church were especially to be remembered and honored.
Especially prevalent among the Druids, this belief merged in many ways with the practices of ancient witchcraft, which also involved spirits, wide use of bonfires, and many questionable activities on that evening.
In modern American popular usage, Halloween customs have evolved into "ghostly" parties, artificially "haunted" houses, and a childish protection racket ("trick or treat"). The "holy evening" is now at least "unholy" -- not necessarily wicked but certainly not God-honoring.
"Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing" (II Corinthians 6:17)."
