Until recently, Halloween as currently celebrated - pumpkins and witches = was almost exclusively a US phenomenon. It has recently spread across the English-speaking world. In many other Christian countries, Halloween (All Hallows Even, the night before All Souls Day) was distinctly more scary, a night for staying in and praying for the departed, not going out. Bad things happened, allegedly, to people caught out after dark on that night.

No. Only predominantly Christian countries celebrate the pagan festival of Halloween. China and Japan for example do not celebrate it. They have more sense to, I suppose
