Pretty sure that the Halloween is Anglo exclusive. Most Christian countries (even protestant ones) traditionally celebrate the Carnival, something of their own (like Mexico does) or nothing at all. The Halloween has only been popularized during the past few decades due to American media and this popularization is almost entirely secular.
Yeah, here in Germany (so Lutheran Protestant/Catholic split) Halloween is not celebrated at all. We have Carnival for that (celebrating the end of fasting).
Only in recent years (think 10-15) trick & treating and dressing up in costumes have become a thing. But that is due to American influence and mostly commercial interest driven.
