Since its acquisition Spirit has expanded its store base from 63 locations to over 700 for the 2009 season and is well positioned to become the leading national Halloween retailer.

Here's your chance to defeat Spirit Halloween's proposal to change all Halloweens to Saturday and keep Halloween on October 31st.
Present day Halloween festivities and beliefs are an amalgamation of superstitious traditions and religious beliefs of many cultures, some 3000 to 6000 years old. There is no reason to change an already great holiday celebration, especially not for extra retail sales.

HALLOWEEKEND MOVEMENT COMES KNOCKING
National Retailer Spirit Halloween Launches Campaign for Permanent Saturday Halloweens
NEW YORK, October 1, 2009 – Last year, Halloween fell on a Friday, inspiring revelers to celebrate all weekend. This year, with the beloved holiday on a Saturday, trick-or-treating can start at dawn. But every year can’t have a Halloweekend. Or can it?
Spirit Halloween believes Halloweekend can – and should – be every year. The leading seasonal retailer proposes that costume-loving, home-decorating fans of all ages give Halloween its own permanent home: on the last Saturday of October.
“With homework, jobs and busy weekday schedules, Halloween often doesn’t get the attention it deserves,” said Steven Silverstein, Spirit Halloween’s CEO, who is leading the uprising. “We’re tired of seeing this enchanted holiday getting lost on a weekday, disappointing ghouls, goblins, witches and warlocks. Halloween deserves a Saturday to call its own, and we all deserve a Halloweekend.”
“Saturday Halloween will let adult and kids alike trick-or-treat earlier and longer, while adding more jobs to the economy,” Silverstein added. “Halloween-related retail sales are as much as 30% higher when Halloween falls on the weekend versus a weekday. Halloweekend could mark a turning point in global economic recovery.”
To rally Americans, Silverstein recently marched up Capitol Hill with supporters Wonder Woman, Popeye, Scarecrow and Dorothy at his side. A concerned citizen captured never-before-seen video of the march which can be viewed at www.spirithalloweekend.com. The new Halloweekend online hub also gives instructions on how to join the Halloweekend movement in your local community and on Facebook.
