I would have never have known what this store was if my girlfriend didn't tell me about it. Now that I know what it is, I think a seasonal pop-up store like this is amazing.
As soon as you walk inside, you are immersed in the "Spirit of Halloween". There are decorations everywhere, big and small. This location, in particular, used to be a Toys R Us, so it feels very open and well lit... almost like a Halloween fair of some kind. Some of the bigger decorations are very detailed, very creepy, and motion activated. You can step in front of them for an extra scare.
In terms of products, the store is very well organized with very clearly labeled sections. There are tons of costumes for adults and kids alike. There's even a few sections for the more "adult" themed things. You know... the typical sexy swamp creature and stuff. It's honestly amazing what you can make sexy these days.
They have full costumes, but they also have an entire section full of wigs and other accessories so you can put together your own thing. There's even a dressing room in the store. The employees are very friendly and always walking around seeing if you need help with anything.
They also have a good amount of fan merch. I ended up getting a really cool looking Assassins creed jacket for a friend who's big into the game. Stranger Things is obviously very popular this year, and they have a whole section on that too.
Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by this place. Not only is it pretty much everything you could hope a Halloween store would be, but I have the added benefit of living right across the street from here. I'm going to be sad to see it leave in a month, but while it's here, I'm taking full advantage of what it has to offer. read more
