UK (Christian Today): Popular UK evangelist and author J John has urged people to take a hard look at Halloween and its increasingly dark emphasis.
The annual spook fest, which was on October 31, is a multimillion dollar industry. John warns that many Christians and non-Christians alike are “uneasy” with Halloween and its focus on the dark side of the supernatural. While dressing up as witches may seem like harmless fun to some, John says the world of evil still has “enormous potential for harm” and children should not be encouraged to take part in an event which celebrates the “very darkest side of the supernatural”.
