One day after Charlie Kirk’s death, his longtime friend Allie Beth Stuckey said that the event had major spiritual importance. “Demons are rejoicing right now,” the conservative influencer said on her podcast, Relatable. “Satan is glad that he took an effective soldier out of the fight”[…]
Which doesn’t mean Stuckey is no longer stuck on demons. On a recent episode of Relatable, she returned to the long-running debate about whether Christians should participate in Halloween celebrations. “We should also realize that the trauma that comes from Halloween for some people is real,” she said. “Decisions surrounding this, they require humility, they require wisdom, and they do, as I said, have a level of liberty”

As Stuckey’s words imply, spiritual warfare is having a moment[…]
Stuckey, whose podcast appears on former Fox host Glenn Beck’s Blaze Media network, is no stranger to looking for demonic influences in pop culture. In August, Stuckey spoke out against the popularity of KPop Demon Hunters[…]
During her Halloween episode, she played a video shared by fellow Christian influencer Forrest Frank that explained an extreme version of the argument against the holiday. In it, a self-proclaimed “former satanic church leader” claims that Halloween is the “highest day” for satanists[…]
Ultimately, Stuckey decided against endorsing this view. “There are evil spiritual principalities at work, and we should acknowledge that and we shouldn’t minimize that at all,” she said. “But I also want to push back against this idea that as Christians we are inviting Satan into our neighborhoods or into our homes or into our children’s lives by living next to someone that celebrates Halloween.” Yet Halloween celebrations carry with them other dangers, according to her: “There is, I would say, a big intertwining of Pride and LGBTQ pride with Halloween,” she said. “People are kind of pushing back against sexual norms through their costumes and through their celebrations”
