Lacuna has been recalled for a short time to gather a night's worth of teeth. She has to do this because it is her purpose and if she doesn't, she's like Spok when he has to mate.
Lacuna gets her assignments and realizes she needs help and only Toot-toot is available.

When Harry explains to Butters why the Darkhallow happened in Chicago specifically, he comes up with a whole bunch of necessary components, including the ancient Native American zombies summoned from the exhibition in the Field Museum (not easy to replicate), the old ghosts following the Erlking, and the way the boundary between Earth and the NN has been torn up in the Chicago area. (Which is done in GP, either directly by Mavra or by Bianca under Mavra's tuition - iirc the black barbed-wire magic is never pinned down specifically to one or other of them, but either way it is a thing Mavra is doing as set-up that far back. I suspect that is also why the Stone Table manifests in Chicago in SK.)
One more piece of evidence that the object of the exercise is not to actually complete the Darkhallow at all, IMO. Just use the prospect of completing it to lure a bunch of people into doing things that serve Cowl and Mavra's greater ends.

If they are teamed up though, Mavra could easily have duplicated torturing some ghosts somewhere else to stir up the veil. Collecting enough ancient hunter artifacts / remains would be time-consuming, but either of them is more than capable of raiding a couple lesser museums and combining their hauls.
It certainly seems like Cowl or team Cowl + Mavra aren't too interested in actually completing a Darkhallow. Yet Cowl sure seemed right ready to go through with it once Grevane and Corpsetaker were dead...
Rasins:
I doubt highly that Mavra is interested in the DH happening. Seems like it feeds on Necro energy, which I suspect is what is keeping her going.

Convincing Harry of that is a good way to stop Harry digging any further into what's really going on there, though.
Bacchus:
from what we learned in cold days the darkhallow might have to be done on Halloween
and most importantly the white council would send everyone who could throw a spell to try and stop it when they learned, and they probably would learn because you have to destabilize the barrier between life and death with very heavy use of black magic. The whole city was brought to a state of panic and chaos and that cant be kept secret.
remember the kemmlerites had to make a deal with the red court to launch multiple insanely big attacks that kept the white council off their backs.
even kemmler himself couldn't pull it off because the white council knows if the darkhallow succeeds they will all die soon after
