Hmmm... Isn't Halloween also when Voldemort originally attacked the
Potters?

I don't know how much bearing this has on the HP universe, but it's
interesting-- some pre-christian religions in the UK and Europe
considered the halfway point between the fall equinox and the winter
solstice (roughly our Halloween) to be the the start of the new year.
