It's a chicken-and-the-egg kind of question. Halloween is an eve like Christmas Eve--Christmas could in theory exist without a Christmas Eve, but a Christmas Eve with out a Christmas after it wouldn't be an eve after all. Chronologically you are right, it's one then the other, but ASD is sort of assumed to be more important and "exist" first, even if it happens second.
