Costumes based on Netflix's smash hit 'Squid Game' have soared in popularity this Halloween- and searches for baby costumes have spiked, according to Google.
"It would be inappropriate for any student to wear to school a Halloween costume from this show because of the potential violent messages aligned with the costume," Fayetteville-Manlius School District Superintendent Dr. Craig Tice said in a statement to USA Today. According to Tice, district staffers had observed students mimicking games from the show during recess, raising red flags for administrators.
So far, Netflix has not officially announced a Season 2 order for"Squid Game," but that seems certain. In a recent interview with the U.K.'s Guardian, show creator Hwang Dong-hyuk confirmed talks for a second season."Of course there is talk. That's inevitable because it's been such a success," he said, adding drolly,"It's possible that I have to do season two to become as rich as 'Squid Game's' winner.
