We don\'t celebrate halloween any longer. I did as a kid and it was one of my favorite holidays but then my parents learned more about the Faith and we stopped. My kids don\'t celebrate it at all.
FYI: I did hear that jack o\' lanterns where pagan. I heard that on Halloween no one was allowed to light their hearth. Then at nightfall they went to do their rituals which included a human sacrifice. Afterwards they would all take a light from that fire and put it in a pumpkin which was carved to \"look\" like someone they knew that was dead, and taken home to light their hearth. This supposedly made the person (who they carved) present in their homes that night.
Someone who is very read told me this, but I personally have never read it for myself. Just thought I\'d share... :)
