I just couldn’t get past Halloween’s massive theme of death.

You've never heard people laughing at a funeral?

The reason it has the connotation is because the day is a time to pray for Saints and Martyrs not already allocated special days. Saints are dead. Hence the skeletons, etc.
It isn’t a celebration of death.
