Halloween outfits 'create fear'
Retailers who sell traditional Halloween merchandise, such as scary masks, are creating a "climate of fear", the Bishop of Bolton has said.
The Rt Rev David Gillett has written to supermarkets asking them to rethink the way they promote the pagan festival, celebrated on 31 October.
He said they are focussing on the darker side of Halloween.
Mr Gillett suggested shops stock hair braids, bright balloons and colourful costumes alongside traditional items.

What complete twaddle! The bishop should be more concerned about who come knocking on his door trick or treating and the consequence he may face if he rightly tells them to f*** off!

Why is this guy so afraid?
I thought the whole point of halloween costumes were to look scarey?! I think someones been at the alter wine and got a little bit confused.
Why is this guy so afraid?
I thought Hallowe'en was only celebrated in North America. Shows what I know.
The old guy needs to get a grip and go along with it.
There are enough truly bad guys he could be worried about?
What's he doing about the spectre of hunger, for example?
