Lawton, Oklahoma Will Open Two Spirit Halloween’s This Year

If you spend time on the various Lawton Facebook community pages, you've probably seen the announcement and call for applications to one of America's greatest outlets of fun, Spirit Halloween. What you may not know is that the retailer will open two locations in Lawton this year.

You know fall is making its way down from the frozen north when you start seeing preparations for Spirit Halloween. It has to be the most successful Halloween-themed business in the country. Springing up in small towns and big cities alike, they are all about spreading the spooky joy... and making money selling really cheap imported goods... but mostly the spooky joy. It's a fun place to take a date.

Throughout its history, Spirit usually opens up wherever there was open space and a people. I remember the first location in Lawton was inside the mall. I remember them taking over the void that Big5 Sporting Goods left (where BootBarn is now), and in the last few years it seems they've existed out on 82nd, but 2022 will feature two new Lawton locations for this spooky store.

These two new Lawton locations may seem randomly out of the ordinary, but something ties these two locations together... They were both previously Galleria Furniture locations while the Lawton franchises lasted. Now it seems Spirit Halloween will step in to briefly fill that void.

If you're looking for work, Spirit seems like the modern equivalent of the classic record store. If you love Halloween, I couldn't think of a better place to get paid to be surrounded by spooky stuff.
