All right, ghosts and ghouls, the time is nearly here for you to get this year’s hot Halloween costumes, latest decorations and everything else you need as the Tri-Cities’ three Spirit Halloween locations open in the coming days. 

The itinerant Halloween retailer known for haunting former retail stores will again have Kennewick locations in the former Toys R Us at 821 N. Columbia Center Blvd. and the former Tuesday Morning at 7411 W. Canal Drive.  

The third store will be at the former Office Depot at 1717 George Washington Way in Richland for the first time this season.  

Last year Spirit Halloween had a location at a former Albertsons grocery store at the corner of Lee Boulevard and Stevens Drive. 

The company has not officially given opening dates for the Tri-City stores.  

Nationally, Spirit Halloween began opening its stores Aug. 7 and most are expected to open by mid-August, employing 50,000 people to operate them.
