The Dhaka Times Desk 3 New York state elementary schools have banned Halloween costumes from the popular Netflix series Squid Game. The decision was made on the grounds that this Halloween costume may encourage violence.
The South Korean thriller series tells the story of debt-ridden people competing for a huge cash prize. Schools in New York are sending an awareness email to parents about the show's gory content and 'violent message'. They say the Squid Game costume would be 'inappropriate' at a school event.
New York's Fayetteville-Manlius School District Superintendent Dr. Craig Tice told CBS News that schools have issued guidelines banning Halloween costumes with "items that could be interpreted as weapons" because they are "too gory or scary."
He added that students were re-enacting scenes from the series during breaks and principals warned parents that 'games involving violence are not appropriate for school children.'
Netflix in the US has rated the series 'For Adults'. It therefore 'may not be suitable for those aged 17 or under.'
But some parents are unhappy with the school's dress ban. They said, 'It's just a dress. Just don't let your kids watch the show.' Source: BBC.
