Columbus / Ohio / United States
Founded in 1983, Spirit was already a Halloween force in malls when Spencers acquired the then 63-store chain in 1999. Through Spirit, the company pioneered the rollout of a national, seasonal Halloween operation that has grown to over 1,100 locations in strip centers, malls and free-standing locations across the United States and Canada, and online 24/7 all year long. Spirit stores open in late August through early November each year, stocked with everything you can imagine for Halloween including costumes, masks, wigs, indoor and outdoor decor items, animatronics, makeup, collectibles, props and in-depth accessories. With its "So Much Fun Its Scary" mission statement, Spirit provides an entertaining and interactive in-store experience for all.
