Holy Ghosting

To Hell with the Devil’s Holiday: How we learned to ditch the harvest party & embrace Halloween


Listen Later

Before we dive into the good, clean fun (explicit fun, so with all the swears still) of the episode, please take note if you are a human with regular human emotions. This episode contains a few campfire horror stories about strange events and spooky shit that happened in our youths. Content warning includes: demon possession, youth pastors grooming…well, youth, animal death (in a DEEPLY disturbing way), and, if you love Sarai’s conspiracy theories, there’s a real humdinger in this episode. 

For the bravest among us who can wade these dark and murky waters, carry on.

As Good Christian Girls®, Lindsay, Meg, and Sarai grew up in the shadow of the Satanic Panic, which made Halloween a ghastly time for Evangelicals. To create a safe haven from the ghosts and witches and satan worshippers (can we stop for a moment and appreciate that this was a THING we all learned??? That satan worshippers are marauding about your suburbs and sacrificing stray cats??)…ahem, the safe haven, that is, was one that was nestled inside the holy walls of a church. Harvest Parties! (Or Harvest Festivals! If you were extra). 

Wind your way through the emerging Halloween appreciation your 40-Something Mom Friends are experiencing in their own special ways. And then?? Then! Get on the sosh meeds and tell us your favorite Evangelical childhood antics - anybody dress up like Larry the Cucumber? We need to know, and we need to see the photographic evidence, PLEASE!
