  It is true that Halloween is the "holiest day" on the Satanic
calendar. The "trick or treat" concept was originally Druidic in
nature. They'd go from place to place, demanding a person that they would
take to be sacrificed. If they were given one, they'd put a "lit
pumpkin" at the doorstep, so that the house would not be harmed.
