Absolutely, you can return items to Spirit Halloween—but with conditions. If the merchandise is unworn, complete with original accessories, in its original packaging, and in new, resalable condition, Spirit Halloween will accept it. Online returns must be initiated within 14 days of the ship date or delivery. In-store returns must be made by October 17, 2025, and exchanges in-store are accepted through October 23, 2025. After that date, all sales are final.
Do I Need a Receipt to Return to Spirit?
For in-store returns, yes—a receipt or invoice is required. The policy clearly states that customers must present proof of purchase when returning items in-store.
When it comes to online orders returned in-store, the same rule applies: you'll need the original invoice to qualify. Without it, you can still exchange the item for something of equal value at the current selling price, but a receipt is necessary for a full refund.
If you don’t have a receipt from a store purchase, exchange-only policies may apply. Based on customer experiences, some stores allow exchanges without a receipt at the manager’s discretion, especially if the item is in new condition. However, it’s best to have proof of purchase.
What Conditions and Timeframes Apply to Online Returns?
When shipping items back to Spirit Halloween:
Everything must be unworn, with original accessories, still packaged, and in new, resalable condition. Returns are accepted within 14 days of the package’s postmark date or delivery. Wig products are non-returnable.
You must log into your account or use your order number to start a return, print the provided return slip, and ship items using a carrier of your choice. Spirit does not accept COD packages. You are responsible for return shipping costs, and original shipping charges are not refunded. Tracking is highly recommended. Refunds typically process within 5–7 business days, but during peak season, it can take up to 4 weeks.
In‑Store Returns and Exchanges: Important Dates You Can’t Miss
At seasonal Spirit Halloween stores, returns and exchanges follow specific timelines:
Return deadline: October 17, 2025
Exchange-only period: October 17 through October 23, 2025
After October 23, 2025: All sales are final—no returns or exchanges accepted
Items must be unworn, include all original parts, and be in resalable condition. A receipt is required for returns; without one, stores may only allow exchanges for an item of equal value at current prices.
Exchanges Across Online and In‑Store Channels
You can exchange an online purchase in-store before October 23, 2025, as long as you bring the item and invoice. If you don’t have the invoice, Spirit Halloween may still allow an exchange, but only for something of equal value at the current price—not a refund.
To exchange an item online, Spirit recommends placing a new order for the replacement product and returning the original item for a refund using the standard return process.
Refund Timing, Shipping Costs, and Other Terms to Know
Refunds follow this schedule:
In-store returns: Expect credit back to your account within 2–3 business days.
Online returns via mail: Refunds post within 5–7 business days of receipt, but may take up to 4 weeks during the Halloween season.
Return shipping costs are not covered by Spirit Halloween. You must pay to ship the items back and you will not be refunded the original shipping charges. Spirit recommends using a trackable shipping method, as they are not responsible for lost or damaged return packages.
Troubleshooting Common Questions
Can I return a costume I bought after Halloween?
Yes, as long as it’s within 14 days of purchase and in new, resalable condition. After October 23, 2025, all sales are final.
What about damaged or defective items?
If you receive a damaged item, contact Spirit Halloween’s customer service with photos. They will guide you through the resolution process. Return timeframes still apply.
Receipt lost—can I still return?
In-store returns without a receipt are not eligible for refunds but may be accepted as exchanges for an item of equal value. This is up to the discretion of store management.

For mail returns, track your shipment. For in-store purchases, bring proof. And if you're ever unsure, ask the staff—they want your Halloween to be as smooth and spooky as possible.
