Children of the White House press corp trick-or-treated around the West Wing this afternoon, finishing in the Oval Office where Trump couldn’t resist taking shots at the press, asking the kids with a grimace, “Are you going to grow up to be like your parents?

Anti-LGBT activist Linda Harvey writes for World Net Daily: You’ve probably noticed that a cultural revolution is in full swing, engineered largely by promiscuity promoters and “LGBT” advocates. It’s based on deception, depravity, subterfuge, endless dirty tricks and no treats. So is it any wonder Halloween is their favorite, special holiday? It’s one more reason this event is something for …

The Huffington Post reports: Anti-Halloween creationists have some ideas about the holiday that could turn your home into the least popular trick-or-treat stop in the neighborhood. Instead of handing out candy, Answers in Genesis wants you to give trick-or-treaters fake $1 million bills that warn children of the fiery hell that awaits them. “Have you ever lied, stolen or used …

The website Influenster polled 40,000 readers on their favorite Halloween candy and somehow candy corn topped the responses from Oregon, Wyoming, Tennessee, Texas, and South Carolina. Blech.

“Who’s your favorite famous witch? Fun-loving Madame Mim? The Sinister Grand High Witch? It’s so hard to pick. And that’s the thing about witches: I believe they share a magic, unspoken bond with queer people.”

“I like Halloween because it’s the one time of year you can dress up however you want, and pretend you’re someone you’d never be in real life. For me, that’s married to a man.” (Via Towleroad)

“This may never happen to you, but I got a good laugh this week when some unbeliever – or perhaps someone who has been hurt deeply by the church – launched a miniature Twitter campaign trying to stir up witches against me.

“The coming of Halloween is a good time for Christians to remember that evil spirits are real and that the Devil will seize every opportunity to trumpet his own celebrity.
