Halloween is right around the corner and people are still on the lookout for costumes.
If you go to Halloween Express, located on West Broad Street, you can see a giant Frankenstein and Rocking Grandparents. This store carries hundreds of costumes, decorations and accessories for adults and children. Originally a franchise with over 300 retail store locations, Halloween Express remains only temporary.
The store opened the second week of August. Blair Baldwin, the store manager, says they try to open by Labor Day weekend so families can start browsing.
“Sales don’t really start happening too much until October; people aren’t in the mood,” said Baldwin. “So we open Labor Day weekend and then we’ll stay open for a couple days after Halloween, just for After-Halloween Sale Monday and Tuesday. And then we pack up and start over again next year.”
When choosing a costume, people like the idea of something unique and original. Customer Erin O’Grady advised its best to find something easy and creative to avoid looking like everyone else.
Whatever you decide to be this year, remember to stay safe and have a happy Halloween!
