Isn't it the other way around?
My five-years old nephew understands halloween, but I don't.

Where does the pumpkin tradition come from?

Don't forget to pray for both those who have passed on and those who are still alive!

I don't know.
Halloween was pretty much non-existent in France when I was young.
It's a relatively recent thing here.

November 1st is a bank holiday but for another reason, it's a catholic tradition of All Saints Day
