Elementary Schools Give Red Light to Squid Game Halloween Costumes

Squid Game is one of the year’s most pervasive shows, becoming Netflix’s biggest series of all time and topping internet searches for Halloween costumes.

Craig Tice, superintendent of the Fayetteville-Manlius School District, which includes the schools Enders Road, Mott Road, and Fayetteville, told CNYCentral that staff had observed students reenacting Squid Game scenarios at recess.

For the uninitiated, Squid Game centers on 456 indebted people who are recruited to play various children’s games, including Red Light, Green Light, or tug-of-war, for a prize of 45.6 billion South Korean won .

Despite Squid Game’s mature content, costume bans have been met with some resistance, as reported by CBS New York.

“We understand that different types of costumes have different types of experience and historical connections, and it’s hard to single out one particular type of costume and say that’s not allowed,” Ricca explained.
