I loved Halloween as a kid. Pumpkin patches, apple orchards, wagon rides, carving pumpkins, costumes, free candy, scary movies, haunted houses all of it. I still do but now with my kids. My son’s 18 but I’m doing it all over again with my five year old. Halloween whatever it’s original roots has been so commercialized that in this era it’s just a day to have fun.

The real meaning of Christmas and Easter were mainstreamed. I don’t feel at all bad about doing the same with Halloween.
