There are more little Lucifers than ever before 👿
There were no recorded Lucifers in the UK until 2016, with a rise of 275% since then.
Which either means people have warmed to the TV show character, or that parents are less concerned with the religious aspect.

@jenny_uzzell explains that while Halloween derives from the Christian festival of All Hallows, others are rooted in pagan religions, ancestors, the new year and relationships with the dead.
'There's a real difference of emphasis - it's a time of reflection and a serious connection with the dead. In Halloween we think about ghosts and scary things, but for pagans it's about remembering those who have died and celebrating them' - @jenny_uzzell
