(NEXSTAR) — How foolish of us to assume they’d stop at Halloween.

Spencer’s Spirit Holdings, the parent company of Spirit Halloween, has announced plans to open 10 locations of its seasonal Spirit Christmas locations, to sell gifts and decorations ahead of the holidays.

All 10 of the shops also plan to offer photos and meet-and-greets with Santa Claus, who doubles as the brand’s mascot.

“Discover thousands of stocking stuffers, holiday apparel, fun gifts, unique décor, plus all the special trimmings for creating an unforgettable Christmas,” reads a brief description of Spirit Christmas on its official web page.

The 10 locations opening in the coming weeks are all located in the Northeast:

  • Marlton, New Jersey — Willow Ridge
  • Brick, New Jersey — Market Place at Brick
  • Mays Landing, New Jersey — Consumer Square
  • Woodbridge, New Jersey — The Plaza at Woodbridge
  • Albany, New York — Colonie Center
  • Bohemia, New York — Sayville Plaza
  • Poughkeepsie, New York — Chestnut Plaza
  • Eria, Pennsylvania — Mill Creek Mall
  • Waterford, Connecticut — Crystal Mall
  • Dartmouth, Massachusetts — Faunce Corner Shopping Center

The flagship location, in May’s Landing, New Jersey, is scheduled to open Oct. 18. The rest “will open in early November,” a representative for the company told NewsNation parent company Nexstar.

The representative also indicated that stores will include a “life-sized gingerbread village” where guests can mail letters to the North Pole.

Spirit Christmas, however, may not be an entirely new endeavor. There’s evidence to suggest Spirit Christmas locations operating in the 1990s, and again for a brief time in the mid-2000s, after the brand was acquired by Spencer’s, according to ads and newspaper articles cited at the Spirit Halloween Fandom page.

A representative for the brand did not say whether additional locations were planned in coming Christmas seasons.
