Hate Halloween?

[Miss Darcy]

I am not such a big fan of Halloween. I have never really celebrated it. I have never been trick or treating. This year I went to a Halloween party which I did not enjoy. The party is really my only experience of Halloween and from that experience I can say that I do not like it.

Halloween was good here, but Christmas is my favorite holiday. My girls came & carved pumpkins out, & we had over 65 kids that night.

I wish I got that many kids..I only had maybe 20
So needless to say I am stuck with the candy, my daughter also has a ton left, she really isnt a big sweet eater.

I like Halloween because the weather here finally cools down and I know that Christmas is just right around the corner.

I think Halloween is fun!! I love the decorations, not the blood and gory stuff, but traditional decorations. I used to love trick or treat but we've moved to an area where we won't get any trick or treaters which is too bad. One year we'd love to have our own Halloween party, but finances haven't allowed it yet. umpkin: And during the Halloween season I love to read books about Halloween and watch documentaries.

any holiday where you get free candy is ok by me

Getting the kids all dressed up and taking them out to get candy is the best part!!! They arent allowed to eat alot of candy through out the rest of the year, so halloween is really a treat for them (and for me!!) lol..

Any day you can eat candy it has to be a good day.

I agree there

My girls are older, but even on Halloween they dress up in there costumes to answer the door or go to a party. They are like little kids that night & it's great to see.
We had over 65 kids here on Halloween night trick or treating, it was cute seeing all the different ways they were dressed.:boo:

I love Halloween and get more and more into it as the years go by.
That first lighting of the pumpkins when you get to see how your carving skills have turned out never fails to thrill me!

I also like Halloween as it signals for me that the Christmas season has really arrived in earnest...same as Guy Fawkes Night five days later.

Love the smell of candle cooking pumpkin...can't wait!!

I like Halloween, my wife LOVES it. So I play along. She does the same for me at Xmas so it works out. Of course living in the Bible belt sometimes you have people who want to say that it's "an evil holiday" but I say horse doo doo. There are people who love Xmas purely as a secular holiday so why can't that apply to Halloween too.

Halloween is one of my top three holidays. Christmas and Thanksgiving are tied, Fourth of July is second and Halloween third. Halloween is great because it is creative and all about fun.
