End of Times To Come This Halloween, Fundamentalist Christian Group Predicts

The end of the world will "surely" come on Halloween this year, a Christian fundamentalist group claimed in a YouTube video.

The group called End Times Prophecies posted a video on the video-sharing site entitled "Why The World Will End on 31 October 2016? Shocking Facts," where it details Jesus Christ's supposed second coming supposedly happening on that day.

In the video, a female robotic voice narrates how doomsday will happen, supposedly through a magnetic polar shift. The video even cites a verse in the Holy Bible, particularly Isaiah 24:20, which says: "The earth will crack and shatter and split open. The Earth itself will stagger like a drunk, sway like a hut in a storm."

The makers of the apocalypse video, according to Inquisitr.com, also stated that the magnetic polar shift is long "overdue," with the weakening of the Earth's magnetic field.

The same website noted, however, that a magnetic polar shift is "not sudden," and is unlikely to cause an apocalyptic or cataclysmic event.

The Christian fundamentalist group also used a verse from the Book of Revelation to describe how the end of the world would come, primarily following an earthquake. The moon would supposedly go red as blood, and the stars would supposedly fall down on Earth, with mountains and island being removed from their places.

Inquisitr.com, noted, however that there is little if any evidence that the world will come to an end this Halloween, just like on July 29 when the same group made the same prediction.

"The simple altering of the target day of the end of the world is reminiscent of many doomsday prophets over the years, the most recent being the Second Coming prophecies made by the popular Christian evangelist Harold Camping in 2011. When his prediction that the world would end on May 11 of that year did not actualize, according to USA Today, he told his followers that he had miscalculated by five months," Inquistr noted.

The online news source said the fundamentalist Christian group will just likely delete this video claiming the end of the world this Halloween when its prediction does not happen, then move its apocalypse scenario once again to another date.
