Spirit Halloween has created a movement to have Halloween fall on the last Saturday in October EACH and EVERY year.
- More fun. Parties last longer, families spend more quality time together.
- Unrushed. Parents can take their kids trick-or-treating earlier and for longer periods of time and nobody has to worry about rushing home from work to get into a costume.
- Better for the economy. Halloween-related retail sales are as much as 30% higher when Halloween falls on the weekend versus a weekday. And that means more jobs and better paychecks.
