Socialite Risper Faith has expressed her surprise and fear after seeing Halloween decorations in her neighborhood in the United States. The Kenyan celebrity recently moved to America to join her husband Brian and decided to explore the local celebrations. In a video she shared on TikTok, Risper walked past several houses showing grave covers, skeletons, and other spooky figures that are commonly used for Halloween.
Risper admitted that the decorations scared her and said that she could not sleep at night because her heart was racing. She questioned the idea of putting graves in people’s yards for entertainment and wondered how it is possible for people to mix the celebration of Christmas with Halloween in such a way.
Although her husband suggested that they join the festivities by buying their own Halloween decorations, Risper refused. She believes that the holiday mixes religious celebrations with symbols that she considers unholy.
The video drew a variety of reactions online. Some social media users encouraged her to return to Kenya, while others debated the meaning and purpose of Halloween. The discussion brought attention to how different cultures view the holiday.
Minister Nashami Wangara spoke to TUKO.co.ke and advised Christians to approach Halloween with caution. She explained that while the celebration may seem harmless, many of its symbols glorify darkness. She suggested that believers could use the day for positive gatherings that focus on light or spend time in prayer for their communities.
Risper Faith’s reaction highlights the cultural differences between Kenya and the United States and shows how some traditional celebrations can feel unusual or even frightening to newcomers.
