Spirit Halloween will trade jack o’ lanterns for candy canes after Oct. 31 with plans to debut 10 Spirit Christmas stores in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania.
But before that, the seasonal retailer will offer same-day delivery from 800+ of its Halloween stores this season via a partnership with crowdsourced delivery provider Roadie, leveraging a direct integration between the retailer’s online store and the Roadie platform. The Roadie partnership joins Spirit Halloween’s previously announced collaboration with Uber for on-demand costume and décor delivery this spooky season.
“We have a ‘no zombie or witch left behind’ policy at Roadie,” said Marc Gorlin, Founder and CEO of Roadie in a statement. “But it happens some years — you get busy and all of a sudden, Halloween sneaks up and says, ‘Boo!’ With Roadie’s help, getting all your last-minute Halloween needs doesn’t’ have to be a horror story. The Roadie crowdsourced network of over 200,000 drivers, not including the ghosts and ghouls, allows Spirit Halloween to scale up a same-day delivery solution quickly to meet their nationwide demand.”
