Halloween is Devil's Night?

Post by Haunt Master » Wed Dec 17, 2008 3:37 pm

Did you know that Halloween is also known as Devil's Night?

I read about it somewhere on the internet... Devil's night may also have ties to the German "Hexennacht" or Witches Night (also known as Freinacht). Hexennacht is celebrated on the night of April 30th, so did you know that? Have you ever heard about this story before? Please post it here. ;)

Actualy it's not the Devil's night. It's "All Hallowed Eve," which is a holy night in both pegn and Christian traditions. Some Christian fundamentalists believeit to be the devils holiday, though.

Ok, thanks for posting the opinion here PM! ;)

That's what I heard some people calling "Devil's Night", well, maybe that's what some Christians think they can call that Halloween name like that. :roll:

It's not the Devil's night. It's Hallow's Eve. Don't say that it's the Devil's night! UGH! :evil:
