BRICK TOWNSHIP, NJ – It’s official: Spirit Halloween has packed up its skeletons, strobe lights, and endless rows of fake blood, and now, in an unexpected twist, some stores are giving way to a new seasonal pop-up: Spirit Christmas. Yes, you heard that right—New Jersey shoppers might be surprised to see Spirit Halloween locations transforming overnight into holiday wonderlands, swapping out creepy animatronics for cozy holiday decor, twinkling lights, and, of course, inflatable Santas.
So what’s behind this shift? While Spirit Halloween has long been known for taking over abandoned storefronts and filling them with Halloween magic, the concept of a quick-flip holiday takeover has caught on, especially with New Jersey residents eager to start their holiday season a bit early. Spirit Christmas has popped up in a few locations around the state, a move that seems to be tapping into the same holiday enthusiasm—just with more cheer and fewer chainsaws.
Inside Spirit Christmas, you’ll find the essentials: festive lights, classic ornaments, garlands, and decorations, from the elegant to the over-the-top. Shoppers can stock up on everything from giant inflatable snowmen to retro holiday decor, with the same kind of “one-stop shop” vibe that Spirit is known for. It’s an unexpected but oddly fitting transition, a jolly 180 from the thrills and chills of October, but hey, if New Jerseyans have shown us anything, it’s that they’re game for a little holiday spirit—no matter the season.
The stores open in November!
