WYNNEWOOD, PA — With seven weeks until Halloween, the ghosts of occupied retail spaces past have returned to South Jersey. Spirit Halloween stores have opened around the region, and one in Wynnewood will be opening soon.
The South Jersey-based chain plans to open 1,500 seasonal locations around the continent by mid-September. Most of them are now open as Spirit Halloween celebrates its 40th anniversary.
In Wynnewood, the store will be located in the Former Bed Bath Beyond at 50 E. Wynnewood Road.

Because the Halloween store is a franchise with thousands of independently run locations across the country, there is no official company-wide "opening day." Each fall, the seasonal store brand secures short-term leases at vacant spaces, leasing from mid-July to early November.
Here are some open Spirit Halloween locations around the area:
