Spirit Halloween Coming Soon To Former Albany CVS
While it is only early July that does not stop the Halloween mood. It has become very common in recent years for stores to start rolling out their Halloween merchandise right after the Fourth of July. Some places have even gone as far to start after Memorial Day as many celebrate what they call "summerween."
I know that some of you think that it might be too soon, but who are we to judge at all? Let's just let people have their fun since it really isn't hurting anyone.
The biggest thing that Halloween lovers wait for to happen is the opening of Spirit Halloween. Not only the opening, but finding out where these pop up stores will be in their area. How close will one be to you? Luckily if you live in the Capital Region you have options. So far I've found one spot and it's t the former CVS on Western Ave in Albany.

The location in question is 1170 Western Ave, Albany, NY. This is located near University Plaza, Dave's Hot Chicken, and Ted's Fish Fry. That CVS location was part of some major closures for the pharmacy in 2024. It has sat vacant since it officially closed it's doors nearly two years ago.

No word on an exact opening date for this location yet, but most Spirit Halloweens begin to open in early August. It depends on the store an location. Since we already know where this one is going to be, hopefully that means it will be open sooner rather than later for us Halloween obsessed folks in the Capital Region.
