If you haven’t noticed–or if you’re just verrryyy deep in denial–somehow, someway, we’re already more than halfway through the year. Spooky. What’s even spookier than that? Spirit Halloween is creeping back, ready to haunt empty storefronts once again. And eight are set to pop up in NYC as soon as this August.
The beloved seasonal retail chain is known for its over-the-top Halloween displays and massive selection of all things spooky, so it’s only fitting the chain has an affinity for taking over abandoned buildings!
Oozing at the seams with everything from costumes and accessories to spooky home decor and animatronics, it’s the go-to destination for Halloween enthusiasts–whether you’re planning a full-blown haunted house or just need a last-minute costume. Part pop-up, part cultural phenomenon, Spirit Halloween has become almost as iconic as the holiday itself.
The caveat: tracking down this Halloween store can prove more difficult than scoring a good viewing spot at NYC’s annual Village Halloween Parade. Lucky for you, we’re all about the treats this year, not tricks…well, maybe just a few.
Either way, we’re letting you in on the biggest treat of them all this season: exactly where to track down your nearest Spirit Halloween.
