Here in Costa Rica we don't usually celebrate Halloween because people back in the 90s said it was satanic and stuff.
Eventually the tradition died down
As in the tradition of calling Halloween satanic died down?
Nah, Halloween died down and we celebrate Mascaradas (another tradition) instead in that same date.
They used to say that black shirts, heavy metal, Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokémon and even Winnie the Pooh were satanic too as well
Not sure about Yu-Gi-Oh, but Winnie the Pooh is definitely satanic.
