Halloween Hot Potato (10/29/25)

Halloween is slowly transforming into something new. Catholics and some other denominations of Christianity are now claiming that the festival is itself is, and always was, a Christian holiday. Other Christians are maintaining their claims that it is an evil holiday that should be avoided at all costs. Still, many non-religious, or even satanists, embrace the day as evil. What if all of these arguments miss the point of Halloween? Also, a recent viral post about kids in MAGA-costumes being given laced-candy is nothing more than a modern legend about the razor-in-an-apple, something candy companies certainly profited off for decades, but which was nothing more than an urban legend. The way that people respond to the laced-candy story seems to be a political cope, just as the “Halloween is Christian” hashtag is a religious cope. In both cases, and in one way, we can witness the natural evolution of tradition and legend. In another way, it is a sort of Halloween hot potato.
