From White Sheets to Viral Dolls: Tracing Halloween’s Costume Culture
In this episode we follow the evolution of Halloween’s visual symbols—from the ancient white-sheet ghost that has haunted bedrooms for centuries, through the chaotic tradition of Mischief Night that turned streets into playgrounds, to the pop‑culture icon Chucky whose murderous presence reshaped costume trends. We uncover how these elements reflect broader social, commercial, and technological shifts in Halloween history. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
