They can celebrate it when they please, but it falls on the 7th.

No, it varies every year. Here is this year's calendar.

The confusion comes from forcing the Roman solar calendar onto the Celtic lunar calender. The Roman equivalent for the beginning of Samhain is October 31-November 1. If he is wanting to be culturally accurate then no it's not today.

I really dont have anything planned for Samhain. Though I started thinking about maybe using the time to do something for my grandmother.
