For some, spooky season starts over the summer, with everyone racing to get their hands on trending decor like Home Depot's Skelly. But for Spirit Halloween, it's always time for tricks and treats. Each year the retailer even carves out a weekend when shoppers can head in store for the Spirit Halloween Butterfinger Giveaway to get a free Butterfinger candy bar and trick-or-treat tote bag.
Beginning in 2023, Spirit started linking up with Butterfinger as their official candy partner for Halloween, hosting free giveaway events each year.

Tips to Save at Spirit Halloween
Spirit Halloween may feel like a one-stop shop for all of your Halloween needs (and it is), but you still don't want to pay full price.
Sign up for emails to get 20% off one item.
Spirit Halloween coupons are not as easy to come by as you might expect. However, if you sign up for their emails, you'll receive a 20% off one item coupon (exclusions apply). This coupon can be used either online or in store.
Choose store pickup or shop in store to avoid a $7.99 (or more) shipping fee.
Every so often you'll see a code for free shipping on orders of $40 or more at Spirit Halloween, but largely you're on the hook for $7.99 flat rate shipping. The costs pile on if you order large animatronics — Spirit adds a $30 oversized shipping fee for bulky items. Note that even if there's a free shipping code and your animatronic is over $40, you'll still have to pay that $30 oversized shipping fee. Only the regular shipping fee will be deducted.
