What Is Spirit Christmas?

After seeing years of success with Spirit Halloween stores, Spencer Gifts announced they would be taking the same concept of an immersive store dedicated to one holiday and use it for Christmas. Thus, Spirit Halloween transformed into Spirit Christmas.

The festive stores will operate in the same pop-up capacity and only be open for a limited time each year. The stores will occupy empty buildings in various cities across the nation. So far, there have been 10 Spirit Christmas stores that have opened, mostly in the Northeast region of the U.S.
