For those that aren’t familiar, Spirit Halloween is a store that pops up in vacant stores around the middle of August and remain until early November. They sell Halloween things like costumes, decorations, etc. I wonder why there isn’t a Christmas version that could sell Christmas stuff that could pop up after Spirit leaves and remains until January. There’s plenty of Christmas decorations, tree, etc that are sold each year, feels like it would be something that could work.

    I believe you’re looking for Christmas tree farms.

    Also, there are so many year-round Christmas shops.

    Also also, Spirit is mostly for costumes, which aren’t relevant to Christmas.

      The recent trend of Halloween decoration is swinging towards Christmas decorations. Just flood your yard with a Halloween theme made of every item you can afford rather than trying to set an unsettling mood (for the people with more than a few decorations). Maybe I’m too stuck up, maybe I overrate the spookiness of my display. But there’s a ton of absurdly overpriced props with the world’s worst speakers for sale in Spirit. I really noticed it when the home depot “#12ftskeleton” prop went so viral they put the hashtag on the box (still not convinced it wasn’t viral marketing).
