What is the Need of Halloween?
Halloween to me is a needless "holiday". It does not help society in any means. Halloween is a day simply for the youth or in special occasions where young adults dress up and go house to house retrieving candy, it has no significant moral or ethical lesson. Whereas, Christmas for example has moral lessons that are spread across the holiday, where we celebrate new life and coming together on one day and putting aside our differences. Halloween teaches kids nothing it has no significance because if Halloween was to never exist it would not impact our society in anyway. Halloween has become recently a skimpy occasion since most female teens or young adults are dressed being too revealing. Halloween does not need to be a holiday that is celebrated.
