Also curious: how many tokens were in circulation before and right after the re-release?

The price dropped to about 1/60 of the original value, but I highly doubt we now have 60 times as many tokens. It was extremely rare before. There was uncertainty as to whether it return as a token or just an override.

Assassin was not nearly so rare as zombie, though assassin is more popular. I cannot for the life of me manage to catch Covid. Perhaps it's because I didn't get vaxxed? The travails of those lacking immunity.

Price isn't just a matter of rarity, of course. The price is set by buyer and seller, often with perceived price and past trades influencing what they're willing to trade at. If supply suddenly runs out, or if buyers suddenly dry up, the price can suddenly move hard in either direction. One person buying up supply or selling his small hoard can impact the price if it causes others to follow.

I have 15 zombies; so, clearly I expect them to go up at some point. But anyone who wants one can easily get during next event. And the price will absolutely be lower after the next event.

If, for some reason, the token does not return next Halloween, up it goes. I cannot for the life of me manage to catch Covid. Perhaps it's because I didn't get vaxxed? The travails of those lacking immunity.
