Spirit Halloween is back in the Cape Region. For the second straight year, it has opened Tanger Outlets Seaside, next to Ulta Beauty.
After years of popping up in different locations, this is the second year in a row the seasonal Halloween store has been located next to beauty supply store. It’s been in the Rehoboth Mall space off Route 1 a number of times – in former Peebles, which is currently being renovated to become a Grocery Outlet, and in the space that is now home to West Marine. A few years ago, it was located in the former Kmart store, but that space is now an Aldi grocery store.
There are more than 1,400 Spirit Halloween locations across the United States. The store sells Halloween costumes for kids and adults, decorations, props and animatronics.
According to a sign on the front door of Spirit Halloween, 36496 Seaside Outlet Drive, Suite 1320, the hours of operation are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., seven days a week. For more information, call 1-855-704-2669 or go to spirithalloween.com.
