Seasonal Question

[Guest Kate]

Ok, so with the Halloween season upon us, I was just wondering - is it in any way a sin to go to haunted houses and the like for the sake of pure fun? I didn't figure it would be, but just wanted to be sure before I went to any. Thanks so much!

There is no sin in going to a haunted house, or wanting to be frightened just for fun. If you were actually putting yourself in real danger it would be a different story, however, I trust that the monsters and things will be fake.
