Halloween once belonged to the Church. It was the vigil before All Saints and All Souls, a time for prayer, fasting, and intercession for the dead. Today, it’s a hollow shadow of its former glory, emptied of faith, filled with superstition. In this Veritate episode, Johnny Mac exposes how modern culture stole Halloween from the Church and replaced holiness with horror. He explains the theology of Purgatory, the meaning of the Triduum of the Dead, and the duty every Catholic has to pray for the poor souls. This is not a story of loss, it’s a call to reclaim what was ours. Light a candle. Visit the cemetery. Pray for the forgotten. The saints are watching, the souls are waiting, and the battle for the dead is not over.
