Depending on who you ask and what country you live you will get either as an answer! I have lived a life as Catholic (plain fun) and JW (demonic tradition). I think it's both! Why do I say that? Because Halloween is like any other holiday, it is what you think it is!
This illustration always reminds me of a situation with my son Shaun! He did not like clowns when he was a child. Of course it just happens I loved clowns and there were plenty in his room. He would get up at night scream and point. We never knew what he was pointing at. You see Shaun did not speak until almost 6 so it was a challenge understanding him.
One of those crying nights I took this huge clown out of his room and he slept like a baby should! Then began the project of removing all clowns from the room and house. Till this day he does not care for clowns. You see clowns aren't bad except to my son and others who may have this phobia. Of course Stephen Spielberg did not make this phobia easier with that clown movie in the 80's!
So holidays are like clowns; to some just another fun day to others scary as shit! To a very limited few both!
Happy Halloween and don't come knocking if you’re a clown!
