The 31st is not Samhain. That is modern corruption. The ancient followed astrology to determine their festivities. 8 holidays related to the Sun and 13 related to the Moon (the 13 full moons in a year). Samhain is when the Sun is halfway through Scorpio in astrology, which this year is November 7th. Seems the chose a random date after all, or they want something to specific come up on the 31st (the modern Halloween) and/or on the 7th (Samhain), which are when the second and third chapter are released.
