No, it's more like Day of the Dead in Mexico - a chance for contemplation and to connect with the souls on the other side of the veil.

Christmas for pagans is called Yule, and it's a time for celebration, sharing of gifts, and welcoming the return of the sun.

No. Yule is like Christmas for Pagans.
Halloween is like Memorial Day for Pagans, except that we actually honor our ancestors on that day, instead of just saying "Oh look, another bank holiday".

The early Christian community distinguished between the identification of the date of Jesus' birth and the liturgical celebration of that event. The actual observance of the day of Jesus' birth was long in coming. In particular, during the first two centuries of Christianity there was strong opposition to recognizing birthdays of martyrs or, for that matter, of Jesus. Numerous church fathers offered sarcastic comments about the pagan custom of celebrating birthdays when, in fact, saints and martyrs should be honoured on the days of their martyrdom—their true “birthdays,” from the church's perspective.
