I've been to a lot of Halloween Stores and Costume Stores in my lifetime but this Spirit Store is…read morethe Mother of them all. This place is huge. There's costumes for every age group. They have all kinds of cool decor and accessories for you to wear or to decorate your home for a Halloween party. If you can dream it up they have it. The employees are very friendly and helpful. They just opened a couple days ago. They have a coupon on line I'm posting. Check out their website. You have to go into the store though it's an experience in itself. I'm recommending you start getting ready for Halloween. My daughter sure is starting to prepare!

Very disappointed in Spirit Halloween. They are crooks. My son asked if they had a try on room the…read morewomen told him no. then he ask her if he can return for a refund to his credit card. she told him yes but it must be by tonight!!! So my son bought two of the same costumes just two different sizes, to go home and try on. when he went right back, after trying them on, to return them They refuse to refund my son. He spoke to the manager and he told him no as well. I called and tried to have this rectified on the phone with the main office . They also refused and refused to let me speak to ma supervisor. So they basically ripped off my son of $100. I think it is very unfair to take advantage of people especially in this day and age. I am not usually one to post this but I feel that we were not treated correctly and I ma tried of being taken advantage of. I will never be going to this store again nor ordering online. I will also be taking this to the next level.

Got big black numbers and confetti happy birthday black nylon balloons . They where only $3.99 for a pack of 6 but they added $1.75 each for the inserting the confetti Additional $10.50 but so worth it they where unique and fun to pop lol . Pop them on the Cieling and it's a party of confetti explosion . Learned the hard way as I lost two that hit the ceiling . This store has an amazing variety of everything . Pricey but you will find great options More than party city but the variety unique I felt

First and Last time here. Went in this morning to get a birthday gift for my daughter's friend…read moreparty. Walked in it was a lot going on in terms of items so I stopped a lady carrying a ladder. I said good morning do you work here just to be sure. She replied Don't you see me wearing an apron what do you think. Then rolls her eyes and walks away. As I'm getting over my shock she comes back without the ladder and go what do you want. Nothing now!!! What! My little girl is with me and she's on her way to this party breathe! I look around and see at check out an older woman and man walked over asked for a gift for my daughter's friend age. The couple was so helpful and lovely and that's the only reason I'm giving a star. I downloaded yelp just to write this review so that should tell you something! Got the gift paid the older lady and she goes go to balloons they will wrap. Who is at balloons? Ms Nasty Attitude yes I've named her in my head. Took 10 plus minutes with attitude to wrap this little gift. I just wanted to get out of there. Then my daughter go O I don't think she's having a good day she's not very nice. Leading to me having to turn my girl's fun day of tea partying to me explaining to her that some grown ups do have bad day and it's ok to have one but just don't take it out on other people. You work in costumer service lady stay home if you don't like your job. Will NEVER VISIT THIS PLACE AGAIN.

WOAH I think…read moreHalloween Adventure is really cool, I usually visit way before Halloween to check out the good stuff with no crowds. They have a lot of novelty items, there's a kind of carnival or sideshow vibe in there with all the odd artwork. They also have an excellent selection of bloody severed limbs that you won't find at Party City! The staff knows where everything is so ask else what you want may be under a big pile and you will not find it

I have worn multiple Nika dresses for Dancesport competitions and black tie events, and I know when I put on a Nika dress, I will be stared at and complimented continually. This is how entrancing her designs are. Nika really takes costuming to the highest level. I was impressed when I learned about her and that she designs for World Champions and TV stars. Every time I interact with Nika I not only get her full, undivided creative attention, but I get her spunky, upbeat, and kind personality. She truly believes in her mission of empowering individuals and I cannot say enough amazing things about her. I have found my costume designer for life, and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you take your next costuming need to her. You will absolutely be wow'd by her!

As far as party supplies go in the city, I consider myself a pro. Many a day I've found myself…read morescrambling for specifics and running from store to store only to find if it's not "in season" they don't have it. Until I found Paramount... the first day we were here I distinctly remember my co-worker and I saying... really?!? we only have to go to one place?!?! could this actually be?!?! and it was... not only will they go upstairs and drag out the Hula gear in the middle of winter but they are also happy to order stuff from their catalog for you. I've never actually had time to wait unfortunately but never have had a problem getting what I need- whatever my little party heart can dream up! There's even been days I've called them as they're closing and said WAIITTTT i need balloons and confetti please don't closeee and they've gladly stayed open for me. Super friendly guys that run it and a lot of fun knick knacks you won't find at party city or the other commercially run chain stores throughout the city. Also very reasonably priced.

Their…read morecoupons aren't as good nowadays as they used to be and I don't have as much time as I used to have either but I still love coming here and browsing. The store layout here is a big congested and feel the checkout area and online order area could be better designed. I placed an order online for store pickup and it was ready in less than 10 minutes after I placed the order, which was quite impressive (I couldn't go until a few days later). The pickup area is located to your left as soon as you get off the escalators. There really wasn't a shelf to get your items and your bags situated after you pick up your item and the waiting area was quite small. No one was there when I went to pick up but a line of about 5 people behind me formed as I got my item making it a bit tricky to navigate to leave the area while also trying to stuff my item into my bags. The general checkout area was quite tight as well. It's long and it's sometimes hard to see if a self checkout counter is open. Self checkout itself is pretty easy to use and I like how the machine is able to detect if the handheld scanner was properly placed back in its slot before it moves forward with checking you out. I was able to find my account easily and apply all my coupons during my transaction. The staff I asked about inventory were quite knowledgeable and were able to point me to the right aisle to get the things I needed. things were well stocked and neatly displayed as well.

To some degree I understand that many retailers are tighter on inventory to reduce how much needs to be sold at deeper discounts after certain holidays are over. However this also means certain things run out and there's no selection left which could also mean lost sales, which was the case when I came to look for a couple Christmas-related products a week before Christmas and much of that section looked decimated outside of wrapping paper, kitchen/dining supplies, some decorations and wearable accessories. They were already setting up for Valentine's Day. Walking around the store, I still appreciated that this location is still around, it's been a while since I've visited so I was glad to see still a strong selection of frames, scrapbooking supplies, paints, yarns and ribbons/trimmings. They also installed more self-service checkout machines. The shopping stop wasn't altogether unfruitful in that I picked up a pack of baked goods boxes (to place home-made cookies/pastries inside before gifting to others). I hope next time to find more of what I need!
