I am a Christian and I celebrate Halloween. I just do not find anything wrong with it. It is not my intention to worship the devil, or practice witchcraft. To me it is simply another holiday where I get to spend time walking with my children, meeting the neighbors, and getting free candy.
If you really have a problem with Halloween, then you would have to have a problem with all holidays, including Christmas, and yes Easter. They are all based upon Pagan holidays. I have seen where churches are trying to offer an alternative to Halloween, however, it turns out to be the same celebration. The only difference is, it takes place in a church parking lot.

well we are christians as well but we dont 'celebrate' halloween, but we do take part in it, my kids dress up and go for candy (although my youngest daughter has gotten scared in the past and doesnt want to go out anymore).
we do have friends that hide from halloween, but we hand out tracts with our candy... what other night do you have so many people coming to your door? why not share the good news with others then!??!!
