Hallowe'en comes from the Celtic celebration of Samhain which was to celebrate the fall harvest (the counterpart to the celebration of spring planting and fertility, or Beltane) and it was believed that the connection between the spirit world and the temporal was at it's most complete. So, I can certainly see how Christians could have an aversion to it, but it's not the same today as it was then. At least, not in America. I have no qualms with it. Besides Christmas, it's my favorite holiday.
