Just a bit of a warning that All Hallow's Eve is a card already. If you're cool with it, then I'm cool with it.

Cool card, btw. 👍

I recalled that card faintly as I was about to post that card. I'm not worried about it. For one thing, the difference is one word, one that is at the beginning of the card name so people won't have trouble distinguishing between the cards when searching for one of them (especially in autocomplete, suggestive searches). All Hallow's Eve is an obscure design, a "proto-Living Death / Living End" it seems - one which is on restricted list. English versions of it seem to be hanging around with a price tag of 200+ $. It's not a card that is seen much - I've personally never seen it being played.

... How did you get that thumbsup icon to appear?

Copy paste? 👍
Yeah; evil unicode supporting text box of doom.

Strict upgrade on raise dead - in two ways. So possibly slightly too good. But I like the idea.

recurred creature now needs to be black

This isn't a strict upgrade but it isn't too far from it. With this you have to play the card on the same turn and can't save it up. You also can't do any discard shenanigans.

We actually have had strictly better versions of Raise Dead now, both of them tribal related: Ghoulcaller's Chant and March of the Drowned.

Anyway, I do too felt that this was a bit too blatant of an upgrade over Raise Dead so I just now added the restriction that the recurred creature needs to be {b} ala Call to the Netherworld. It also seems to fit the general flavor so one could think of it as a 'strict' improvement on the design. Makes it less able to snatch enemies' creatures as well.
