True while its not cool to make money off of religus holidays christmas for example has been so comercialized in the last 2000 years that it is now all mixed together. For instance the tradition of gifts on christmas goes back to the birth of Jesus seeing as he was the First christmas "gift" I mean it is called Christ-Mas.
Halloween started as a day of respect for the dead and thats where the costume tradition came from seeing as people would wear costumes because they beleived that spirits would come back to the land of the living on this one night a year and the costumes were used to blend in with the spirits and make them feel more comfortable.
