Spirit Halloween, the ubiquitous national retail chain best known for “haunting the buildings of every business Jeff Bezos killed,” is getting an actual, honest-to-God movie co-starring Christopher Lloyd and Rachel Leigh Cook. Per an exclusive announcement from Variety, the family friendly film is set to release this October, and has an official logline:
When a new Spirit Halloween store appears in a deserted strip mall, three middle-school friends who think they’ve outgrown trick-or-treating make a dare to spend the night locked inside the store Halloween night... But they soon find out that the store is haunted by an angry evil spirit who has possessed the creepy animatronic characters. The kids embark on a thrilling and spooky adventure in order to survive the night and avoid becoming possessed themselves.
