Did you scare away any demons tonight?

'Twas all Hallow's Eve... the night before All Saint's Day. And supposedly the purpose is to scare away all the demons then usher in the saints. Did you?

Update:

I cleansed the house with sage, too.

Set out 3 pumpkins, a caged ghoul that shouts, black tunnel-like coverings around my porch, cobwebs across the entire front of the house, huge spiders hanging, and a KEEP OUT!!! sign on my door. Then I sat in the shadows dressed in black, holding candles in one hand and a bowl of candy for the brave in the other. I overheard comments like "this house is creepy" and "don't go up there, it says keep out". MAUH HA HA!

Update 2:

jacob - right on, scary dude. but it's not as fun that way, is it?

xcbear, jonboy, and ginger - high 5 and boo back atcha

ihateu - you sound WAY creepy. stay away from my cat

witchyboy - i like your style... smooth

goldyy - *shiver* you sound the creepiest of all

bajingo - too bad you couldn't join us

monarch - share the magic recipe?

smileysal - what can i say? don't do crack.

    Only the ones in my head. And not all of those, I've still got those 'unfinished business devils' chattering and knocking at the doors of perception...

    Didn't even manage to get a pumpkin, so made a swede lantern.

    Hurrah! Happy New Year, pagans...

    Well....all the Saints are just Pagan gods given a Christian image...so in a way yes...

    blue and white sage to smudge my space...

    cleansed my house with salt, water, fire, and incense....

    and lit some candles to honor the ones passed on through the veil. And of course I set out Jack-o-Laterns for the spirits to find their way and to scare off the harmful and mischievous spirits.

    I must have...I ate a big fish dinner and had neither any trick or treaters knock, no pesky IM's, nor any bad dreams while sleeping. The night was quite peaceful and totally quiet.

    Source(s): Tobit, and the angel Raphael? Who knows, maybe there IS something to eating fish.....

    Just butterflies, bumblebees and a few pirates none of which was over 3' high.

    They only bow to the name of Jesus, the name that is above every name. They will flee under no other name.

    No, daemons are too afraid to come anywhere near me for me to be able to scare them personally.

    If demons you mean foul-smelling brown goo, and by scare you mean defecate, then absolutely!

    It was refreshingly relieving too.

    yes, by standing outside like a statue, and as the little children approached........HAHAHAHA
