Rogers sees the 1970s as a renaissance period costumes for Halloween, chiefly as an outlet for the expression of "cultural inversion." In the final two chapters, he takes stock of Halloween at the end of the millennium, noting how some elements both of European and Latin American (El Dia de los Muertos) antecedents have been assimilated and reshaped by U.S. popular culture.An impulse to "kick over the traces," at least occasionally, has marked every society and has manifested itself in everything from forbidden rites to seasonal experimentation with folk religion to transvestite parades. One of Rogers''s central points is that the fear and spookiness surrounding Halloween have always tended to engender both reverence and revelry, and that the two responses are not easily separated. Writing email of the late medieval English Hallowtide, he observes that "in this season of misrule, choristers became boy bishops and urban leaders were temporarily usurped from power by mock-mayors and sheriffs in a ritualized topsy-turvy world replete with "subtle disguises, masks, and mummeries.''"
