The sight of Spirit Halloween locations popping up in vacant stores is a sure harbinger of fall and spooky season.

But the Halloween costume and decor staple, which is owned by Spencer Gifts, will keep some of its stores open a little longer this year. The company has revealed plans to soon open 10 Spirit Christmas stores across the northeast.

"Discover thousands of stocking stuffers, holiday apparel, fun gifts, unique décor, plus all the special trimmings for creating an unforgettable Christmas," advertises Spirit Christmas on its official webpage .

Here's what to know about Spirit Christmas and where the stores will be located.

Where will Spirit Christmas stores be located?

Spirit Christmas will soon take over strip centers and malls in New Jersey, Connecticut, New York, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania – some of which are already Spirit Halloween locations.

Will Spirit Christmas open in Arizona?

At this time, the company only planned to open locations in the northeastern United States. No Arizona locations were announced.
