Hurricanes have been known to form in both October and May. Even though these May hurricanes are less common they still happen.
Hurricanes need warm ocean water to form. Because of it's high specific heat water takes a long time to both heat up and cool down. In May the oceans of the northern hemisphere are still relatively cool from winter, generally to cool for hurricanes to form. In October those same oceans are still warm from summer and can often produce a few hurricanes.
May is normally warmer than October which is why it may seem weird, however Ocean temperatures take a long time to react to the seasons so October has warmer waters (which is the basic ingredient for any hurricane). Also the jet stream in May (which causes shear that destroys developing storms) is usually over the Caribbean and Gulf in May where as October usually has a few weeks before the Jet stream moves back into these areas
