 | I've never really understood why Americans treat halloween as a more general (spacemen, cowboys, belly dancers,
 etc.)fancy dress, rather than a horror/occult themed one. Is
 it because of conservative Christianity's wishing to
 distance the occassion from anything unholy? I'm not
 criticising, I've just always thought it odd and wondered
 what the reasoning behind it was.

 | halloween is technically about demons, the devil, evil spirits and stuff, cults, whatever....but over the
 years/decades and decades its turned into a comercial thing,
 its not 1930 any more, and the kiddies go door to door, or
 there are special events at public places like parks, zoos
 and the malls for the kiddies to dress up and get thier
 treats and all :)
 
 I dont know about the trying to "distance the occasion from
 anthing unholy" just how many ghost and vampires, draculas
 and frankensteins do you really need ?  Its the one time of
 the year where mommies get to dress up all slutty, and im in
 favor of that :)
 
 side note: I admit it, that when i was in high school, we
 would scare little kids on the street and take thier whole
 bag of candy :(....im very generous with the treats when the
 kiddies come by the house now.
 
 Remember:
 brush and floss your teeth.

 | I remember we had a halloween party at my church that was (horror) fancy dress and we had to keep quiet about it,
 because some of the wardens etc. would get worked up about
 it. Unsurprisingly, the priest didn't lead us in a satantic
 orgy of bloodletting and human sacrifice, we just had a
 party dressed up as monsters. I won the prize for best
 costume for my home made skeleton outfit.
 
 I might print out some copies of this to give to
 trick or treaters. I particularly like the way it focuses on
 spiders as being evil, even though spiders are animals which
 are not biblically related to evil or the devil at all. The
 Muslims would have a field day with this idea of one of
 God's creatures being evil (I believe it would be
 blasphemous to them).

 6am-7pm people go to work
 7pm-10pm family time/watch tv
 10pm-6am the racoons and night animals come out
 if you ever go out after 10pm either here or there
 the streets are pretty much dead
 
 besides if you did foolishly get caught, it would be a funny

 | Generally this is true, but I think you're neglecting to mention the increased police patrols and general heightened
 sense of fear and distrust that members of neighborhood
 watch muster on nights such as halloween. People almost
 expect their houses to get TP'ed/egged in certain
 areas on nights like that, especially if they've had their
 property vandalized by teens in the past. Or was it just my
 neighborhood that it felt that way?

 | I'm living in Florida at the moment, but possibly (waiting on a lot of tentative details to work themselves
 out) making a move to Washington state in the next year or
 so, so I might be able to stop by in Nebraska during the
 drive.
 
 If you don't drink, we'll meet up for a coffee, then. Or
 just bring the fam and we'll go bowling or something. :)
