Frank’s fans quickly flocked to the comments section to discuss the religious and spiritual implications of celebrating the holiday.

“Not a hill I could die on, but a little girl dressed as a princess to get candy isn’t the same as a human sacrifice,” one social media user wrote. “They may both happen on the same day but they are not related. God cares about our intentions, not specific days. He is still God on Halloween.”
