October the 31st is halloween. It is the evening before all saints day (November, 1st), 'All Hallows Eve'. That evening ppl used to pray for their dead ancestors and it's reported the Celts celebrated their thanksgiving then as well.
So yes it is a good month until Halloween, but, hey christmas is on December the 24th and shops are full of cookies and decoration from September on. Why not helloween the whole October then?
Btw.: Spooky design...

Whenever you're sad just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.
