Those who love the spirit of Halloween were extra lucky this year with an October Friday the 13th.
This is the first time October has had a Friday the 13th since 2006.
The Spirit Halloween store in Woodbridge says that they have already sold more items this year than in the last 11 years.
District store manager Donna Gallow says that the increased sales seem to be due to the fact that more adults are dressing up for Halloween.
“It’s became more of an adult [holiday] than it did kids. The kids have their one day, but the adults have their weekend,” Gallow says. “They can relax and they can become whatever they wants to be.”
Gallow says that the children love dressing up as super heroes and she says that the staff cannot keep up with the demand for “Hocus Pocus” costumes this year.
The beloved movie is getting a television remake.
