Why would ancient Japanese spirits choose an Americanized version of a Pagan European tradition as a good day for the spirits to cross over?

The same way that the Japanese themselves take on, adapt, and integrate Western culture, technology, and way of life into their own.
Pretty much any folklore and myths from countries reflect aspects of themselves and their psyche.

Aw damn. Here I thought her nine lives would let her be a recurring character.

Your point is correct if we assume that the demons learn and subsume the ideas of the humans, or, are purely based off of the imagination of them, but that is not the case here in this manga. The ghosts and monsters are portrayed not as beings spawned from human thought, but separate entities. This being the case, if a specific day is in and of itself a day for when the borders between worlds is weakened, the day itself, Japan should have already had another separate holiday on October 31, since the holiday (that kills humans)would be designated by the spiritual realm, not vice versa.
