Below is a reply to a member of the Teens4Satan e-group and an article on
Halloween I wrote some time ago after doing research on the origins of this
special and most fun holiday.
Halloween is a wonderful time of year and a holiday that encourages personal
creativity. Halloween is also a good time to communicate with the spirit
world. This is in fact scientific as the earth aligns a certain way that
makes spirit communication much easier.
Enjoy yourselves everyone, HAIL SATAN and a Happy Halloween to you all!!

Xian purpose? Or do I avoid it all, sit back in a traditional Satanic
bonfire with a few buddies?

Halloween is by far, my favorite holiday. Feel free to enjoy and celebrate.
The only thing to avoid is dressing up in some "devil" costume with the
horns or anything else that makes a mockery of Satan. Use your imagination.
I used to paint my face up as a skeleton when I was much younger and put on
a black top hat and I made a wig from xmas tree string-like tinsel and then
put on a long black robe. Also, there is nothing wrong with wearing
horrifying or spooky masks or anything else, as long as you are not wearing
some devil costume that is a mockery of Satan. Anything else goes.
Watch horror movies, indulge in treats...enjoy!
Here is an excerpt from an article I wrote many years ago concerning
Halloween:
***
Let's turn the tables here. You know if the nazarene wasn't such a sorry
joke, with all the blood and gore, he is actually scary.
For starters, a lightweight wooden cross, hollowed out on the inside can be
equipped with a small sliding door where candy and other treats can be
inserted. In addition to acting as a candy receptacle, the cross can be used
to defend against thugs who, through laziness would rather rob legitimate
trick-or-treaters of their hard earned candy than go door to door like the
rest. A neon crown of thorns can be wired to a nine volt battery, blinking
on and off, followed by lights circling around the head in different colors.
Another battery can supply a small, though loud, speaker booming out church
organ music, every so often intercepted by- "have you heard the good news?"
"His pain, your gain" "have you been saved?" "Jesus loves you" "this is my
son in whom I am well pleased." This way, one can hear the nazarene coming
for blocks and get the basket of candy ready at the door. A placard can be
attached to the back of the trick-or-treater, advertising: "CALVARY OR
BUST!" Fake blood tubes can be hooked up to the palms where they can squirt
stingy people who refuse to insert treats into the door on the cross. Fake
blood must also be applied to resemble the stigmata and other gore. If one
really wants to get elaborate, a whip can be included.

Samhain/Halloween
For those of us who are very close to Father Satan, we are all well aware
that he is fed up with all of the Judeo/Christian claims and statements
concerning what Satanism is about, how we celebrate and worst of all WHAT
THEY CLAIM HE IS ALL ABOUT.
SATAN IS NOT A HALLOWEEN MONSTER
SATAN IS NOT A VAMPIRE, SPOOK OR GHOUL
SATAN DOES NOT HAVE RED HORNS AND A TAIL
SATAN IS NOT ABOUT GRAVEYARDS, GRIM REAPERS, SKELETONS OR ABOUT HORROR.
THIS TRASH COMES FROM CHRISTIANS. IT IS USED TO BLASPHEME, DENIGRATE AND
RIDICULE HIM. THE SAME GOES FOR HIS DEMONS.
For many of us, Halloween is a favorite holiday. I, myself love horror
movies and such. The point here is how these have been twisted to portray a
false and insulting image of Satan and the Original Gods (Now labeled as
"Demons").
Ask yourself how you would feel if people put on hideous masks and went out
as either you or a family member of yours or a loved one.
Father Satan should be respected on this date, not mocked by those who
believe in and honor whatever Christianity dictates he is. How long do you
think someone would last going out dressed as the Nazarene? Chances are,
they would be attacked by some fundie Christian.
Or, if Hollywood was to produce a movie depicting the nazarene and his ilk
as hideous monsters.
Halloween is a great time for costumes, monsters, and ghouls, images of
death and such. A time to be creative and indulge. It is one of our major
holidays, but the negative images denigrating Father have to go.
He is tired of it and has let the clergy know he does not approve of these
insults. For far too long, too many Satanists have gone along with the
CHRISTIAN ideas of Satan and his Demons; what the CHRISTIANS allege them to
be and what THEY claim our religion is all about, instead of seeing Satan
for WHO HE REALLY IS without all of the Christian false and twisted
overtones.
ABOUT SAMHAIN:
The holiday known as "Halloween" was originally called "Samhain" a Celtic
word meaning "Summer's End." In ancient times, religions were based upon
nature, where humanity lived in tune with the earth, the change of seasons,
and the changes in the stars in the sky. This is the essence of Satanism;
what is natural.
The major cycles of the year and the crops were important times for
festivities, rites, and celebrations. Samhain was a time of harvest and the
end of a year, a time of preparation; storing crops and preparing for the
dead of winter. The eve of November 1st was the eve of the Celtic New Year.
This holiday was a time of harvest, a time of endings, death, and dying, as
plant life died and the cold set in. Samhain was also a time of honoring the
dead. The Druids built huge bonfires, which they considered sacred, in honor
of the Celtic New Year.
There was a prevailing belief in the existence of a Celtic God of the dead
known as 'Samhain". With extensive research and study accomplished by many
scholars, nearly all agree this God was non-existent.
Nearly all of the sources mentioning a deity of death known as "Samhain" are
CHRISTIAN and they have (as usual) NO legitimate references to back up their
claims.
Samhain was celebrated for centuries before the Christian takeover of Pagan
holidays. To the intruding Christian religion, any Gods of the old faith
were considered "evil" and therefore especially unwelcome at a time of
"danger" for the "soul of any good parishioner." This was why Christians
suppressed the deadly rite and replaced it a day later with 'all soul's
day.'"
Trick or treating originated in Ireland as beggars went door to door on
October 31st, asking for handouts. The gifts were for "Muck Olla" a God who
was said to destroy the house of anyone who was not generous.
Jack-O-Lanterns also had their origin in Ireland; named for a man named
"Jack." The story goes that Jack was a miser and when he died, he was not
allowed into heaven and he also played jokes on the Devil, so he was not
admitted into Hell either, but was doomed to walk the Earth forever. He only
had a little lantern to light his way and this is why he came to be called
Jack-O-Lantern. Of course, the spooks, vampires, and ghouls were associated
with this holiday because of the natural human fear of death and Samhain was
a holiday of death.
**The above, as I already mentioned, I wrote many years ago. From what I
have learned since, Samhain/Halloween is much more important than the above
supposed meanings and legends. There are specific times of the year when
rituals and such are greatly empowered, as with the Magnum Opus. We don't
have all of the information regarding the dates for the Magnum Opus yet, but
Samhain/Halloween is another very important stage and definitely factors in.
