Every year, Spirit Halloween stores pop up in random locations. The locations open for what feels like a few weeks and then vanish without a trace until the following year.
But what if there were Spirit Christmas stores? That would be fantastic, right? TODAY IS YOUR LUCKY DAY. Some genius folks at Spirit Halloween decided that’s exactly what the masses need, and this is the best news anybody could imagine for a store they’ll probably only ever visit once. (It’s me. I’m anybody. This sounds AMAZING, and I may or may not be screaming about it.)
Per Kristian Burt of CNBC, the company will open 10 storefronts called Spirit Christmas throughout the entire holiday season. An original flagship store in Mays Landing, New Jersey, will open on October 18, and nine locations will open in early November. The stores will have tons of essential holiday decorations and even a real-life Santa to take photos with.
Spirit Halloween will turn into Spirit Christmas at select locations this year after the Halloween season is over.

Of course, the news of Spirit Christmas landed differently for some people. It had a bunch of folks making perfect The Nightmare Before Christmas jokes.
