Spirit Halloween, the ephemeral retail wraith that haunts the departed vessels empty Sears, Kmart, and other benighted retail stores before vanishing into the aether, will transform into a smaller seasonal chain selling holiday shit called Spirit Christmas, with the first one opening up in Poughkeepsie, New York in just 10 days’ time, the Poughkeepsie Journal reports.
The Poughkeepsie store is just one of 10 opening in 2024 compared to who the hell knows how many Spirit Halloweens usually open every year, but it appears to be sort of a test run to see if they can keep the corporate gypsy thing going into another retail-centric holiday season.
