This is only for people who believe the Bible to be God's word.

Most people view Halloween as a time to simply have some spooky good fun and such is fine to do on any day of the week, as long as you don't hurt anyone. However, there is a certain number of the population who believe that dead people come around during this time of the year. The scriptures teach that God gave man a soul, and it is the soul that returns to God at the time of death because all souls are His (Ezekiel 18:3–4; Genesis 2:7; Acts 17:24–28; Hebrews 12:9; James 2:26; Ecclesiastes 12:7; Luke 23:46; Acts 7:59–60; Luke 8:53–55).

People need to know that God said no spirit has the ability to linger around after death spooking people. When we die the scriptures teach that the power that draws us is beyond our control; we are carried away by angels (Eccl. 8:8; Psalm 90:10; Luke 16:22). In order for a house to be haunted, such would mean a soul escaped from God and hid in the house. Now we know that nothing is hidden from Almighty God, Mark 4:22.
