Is it? I figured it was halloween themed.
Halloween is connected to the religious festivals, All Hallow's Eve and Día de Muertos. Whilst commercialism may have overtaken the holiday today, it is still a deeply sacred event to some, and can cause offense when it isn't treated that way.
In the same way some Christians are offended by the commercialisation of Easter and Christmas.
"Real world religions" would be better served by concerning themselves with more productive pursuits than getting worked up over every little perceived offense. Then there would be no ire at all!
