Lets look at some verses.
Leviticus 20:26-27
King James Version (KJV)
26 And ye shall be holy unto me: for I theLord am holy, and have severed you from other people, that ye should be mine.
27 A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood shall be upon them.
Choose whom you shall serve.
Also:
Isaiah 2:6 (NIV) You have abandoned your people, the house of Jacob. They are full ofsuperstitions from the East; they practice divination like the Philistines and clasp hands with pagans.
Revelation 21:8 (NIV) But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars--their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.
Here is a quote from A.W. Tozer:
"Christianity is so entangled with the world that millions never guess how radically they have missed the New Testament pattern. Compromise is everywhere. The world is whitewashed just enough to pass inspection by blind men posing as believers..."

Also:
Exodus 22:18
King James Version (KJV)
18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
Halloween has no holy or righteous association. No one thinks of our Lords gift of salvation. A child or adult that celebrates Halloween by dressing up or even giving out candy is still associating with the observance of the day. It is certainly by no means an opportunity to witness except by nonobservance. How are we to be an example if we set No example?
What finally set me over the edge with this was actually seeing a church with a sign in front of it that literally had the word Halloween on it. Unholy and unacceptable. They were advertising for a Halloween party they were going to have. If I have an opportunity I will try to get a picture of it.
I know that as Christians we are all coming to it from different directions but there are something's that just don't change, namely The Word Of God!
More Verses:
Deuteronomy 18:10-11 (NIV) Let no one be found among you... who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or cast spells, or who is a medium or spiritist.
Revelation 21:8 (NIV) But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars--their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.
