So, as much as I would love to see Sam gain even more recognizability (and to be clear, I'm not saying he's like some totally obscure figure either), maybe we should leave him at the fringes of our minds, watching us silently as we drift in and out of Halloween traditions, encouraging us with a distant stare to never forget what made Halloween so special to us, albeit with a chocolate bar switchblade behind his back!
So the one thing that hurts Sam for me is that final segment of Trick r' Treat that reveals Sam's face as a weird demon thing and has him directly attacking someone.

For me, what makes Sam work is his mystery. He's sort of like The Watchers in Marvel, only he exclusively watches tragedies taking place on Halloween, and it's never quite clear what hand, if any, he had in how the events played out. Making him a simple, angry demon thing really hurt the character.
