to speak of halloween specifically, it's something vaguely to do with celebrating the spirits of the deceased, but nobody really cares about that part.
at the end of the day its just a thing that you can either choose to celebrate or not, same with any other holiday.
Unlike other holidays there isn't any stress associated with Halloween (like Christmas). At least not for me. I love Halloween.
So "Halloween" is actually just saying "the night before All Saints' Day".
All Hallow's Eve fell actually on May 13, however Saints got rid of the pagan festival called Samhain, the darker half of the year. Where as the date for Christmas is actually the darkest. A lot of attempting to communicate with the dead, killing sacrifices, and witchcraft.
Yet the first witch was a woman helping child births. So there's yet another side to that story too.
It's a bunch of fear of the unknown, creating evil and then being covered over with good and then clouded back again.
Which is why it's celebrated: Pagan dates overwritten by Christian holidays considering it to be more positive on the darkest times of the year, then covered up with a bunch of non-Christian stuff as well, just like Easter, Christmas, etc. People are clueless knowing that Santa is real, but actually St Nick, etc. If you dig deep enough, you can actually find a real history story of a real person behind it, without all the crazy fairy tales thrown on top, some people actually known and teach to their children for morals and ethical values.
In Mexico, it's "Día de Muertos" (Day of the Dead) and a three-day celebration. On October 31, All Hallows Eve, the children make a children's altar to invite the angelitos (spirits of dead children) to come back for a visit. November 1 is All Saints Day, and the adult spirits will come to visit. November 2 is All Souls Day, when families go to the cemetery to decorate the graves and tombs of their relatives.
Anyways, you get to pick how to celebrate it - greed or valves. Children enjoy it, running around getting candy from strangers, when told for the rest of the year to avoid doing such things.

Short answer: Religion asides, if you put it all together, most people use the day as remembering and giving respect to the dead.

I used to enjoy watching the kids come for candy and see what they wear <trippy stuff>. Would help friends with kids carve pumpkins as a social thing.
Basically for fun. Most people are not satanic or whatever, that's more edgy kid stuff.
The last few years though they don't let kids go door to door anymore and were doing these parking lot things where kids would go from trunk to trunk... more like a Grateful Dead concert parking lot. This year I don't know what people will do beyond decorate homes.
I enjoy decorating mine but I started putting up my Halloween stuff when the virus hit months ago. Death party and whole world is invited ha ha ha.
Why you think it's "wrong" and "something needs to be done about it" is beyond me.
Keep that in mind.
it's a holiday that carries over from Gaelic tradition just like Christmas.
The Irish Scottish and the manx did nothing wrong on their New year's they celebrated the passing of those who gone beyond the veil. They offered their loved ones gifts and treats keep them happy. They burn candles to keep away the ones who were malevolent. They dressed in masks to fool those spirits.
They were more respectful of the deceased than anyone here has a right to claim. Samhain was a remembrance of what we lost and to celebrate the greatness of their lives.
