you’re so right about how much the millennial generation has upped the ante on costumes/Halloween in general.
Maybe it has to do with increasing corporates pressure, hell, there’s a whole industry for costume stores. Many of which used to be seasonal, now open all year. Millennials (like me) do tend to shy away from religious holidays and towards the hallmark category, at least from what I’ve noticed.
