montims:
 The Oxford English dictionary shows:
hallow

/*hal*o/

  • *verb* *1* make holy; consecrate. *2* honour as holy. *3*
*hallowed*greatly revered.

  • *noun* archaic a saint or holy person.
and
Halloween

(also *Hallowe'en*)

  • *noun* the night of 31 October, the eve of All Saints' Day.

  — ORIGIN contraction of *All Hallow Even*
All Hallows is 1st November - All Saints Day.

I think it might refer to the fateful night and another Halloween when Harry
and Voldemort complete the prophecy...
