Is Halloween Satanic? Satan says take it up with the Vatican.
Forget pagan death cults—modern Halloween has a lot more Catholic paperwork, medieval souling, and made-up Druid fan-fiction about Samhain. We’re taking a festive blowtorch to Halloween’s Satanic Panic to demonstrate that Satan did not, in fact, invent fun-size Snickers bars, Halloween is not the Devil’s holiday, and it’s not even Satan’s birthday (much to his dismay).
We're digging into All Saints' Day, All Souls' Day, medieval soul cakes, and Samhain—which turns out to have about as much historical evidence for its existence as Atlantis. Expect high-density religious satire, historical myth-busting, gossiping monks, and, shocking absolutely no one, an 18th-century mediocre white man. Fully scripted. Heavily produced. Featuring original punk rock music from The Genuine Hoots of Joy, and the Pope planning his holiday in Ibiza.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Where did Halloween originate? Discover how Pope Gregory III and IV standardized Allhallowtide in November to streamline Vatican paperwork rather than battle imaginary pagan death cults.
• Is Halloween a pagan or Christian holiday? We dig into the 300-year gap between the Christian conquest of Britain and early Samhain mentions.
• Where did trick-or-treating come from? Medieval soul cakes, mumming, costumes and begging from strangers turns out to be much older—and much weirder—than you'd expect.

In Revelations 9 our favourite cranky god unleashes 200 million horses with lion heads, breathing fire out BOTH ends (insert fart joke) because apparently hell needed a cavalry! Which is pretty metal of him, not gonna lie.
First up: some scary monster locusts clearly designed by a committee, none of whom had ever actually seen a locust. These guys rock scorpion tails, the faces of men, the hair of women and the teeth of lions. Horrifying as that sounds, don't worry — they can't kill you! They just torture you for a very precise, bureaucratically mandated five months.
Then the sixth trumpet sounds, god decides subtlety is for losers and goes with 200 million horsemen — riding horses with lion heads that breathe fire, smoke and brimstone, with vicious serpent-headed tails , and a body count of one third of humanity.....
Seems like a slight overreaction bro.
And yet, the survivors still don't repent and continue to thug it out.
Meanwhile, team leader Abaddon, Angel of the Bottomless Pit, is technically running the entire operation off the strength of one biblical mention — classic middle management.
Fully scripted. Packed with Jokes. Heavily produced. Featuring Judas's haemorrhoid theory of the apocalypse and Abaddon's deeply unimpressive & dull locust army.

As Big Bird sang "It's Not Easy Being Green" at Jim Henson's funeral, fundies managed to somehow twist this wholesome moment as evidence of a Satanic conspiracy. So how did the internet turn the nicest man in Hollywood into the Devil?
Join us in Part 2 as we venture into The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth and The Storyteller, where children's entertainment gets tangled up with occult symbolism, Kabbalah, alchemy, demons and David Bowie's impressive yet inappropriate codpiece. Plus a very confused demonic Yoda from the 14th century, some Fraggle Rock satanic panic and a scary cathedral — and somehow Jim Henson's memorial is more Satanic than this actual Satan podcast.
Skepticism, religious satire and atheist comedy collide once again in a glorious pile of puppets, demons and deeply questionable interpretations of children's entertainment. Fully scripted. Heavily produced. Featuring our intrepid hero Satan, some deeply uncomfortable questions about puppet anatomy, and an unwelcome QAnon cameo.

PATREON — We already proved supporting the show helps fund deep-state puppet conspiracies, and frankly, if that's not a five-star incentive, we don't know what is. Patrons get 2 bonus episodes a month, early ad-free listening, and exclusive extras. 👉 Join Our Community on Patreon Here → patreon.com/satanismysuperhero

CONTINUE THE JOURNEY — If you missed how any of this started, Part 1 covers the actual reason we ended up here: Jim Henson's Christian Science childhood, a Ouija board, and the CIA's alleged gay agenda for Sesame Street. 👉 Listen to Ep.136, "Jim Henson's Muppets — A CIA Plot To Turn Everyone Gay (Part 1)"
