CHARLOTTE — Spirit Halloween’s takeover of the ghosts of past box stores continues.
The Halloween merch company has opened a store in the former Dick’s Sporting Goods at the Northlake Mall.
The opening comes after the mall lost several high-profile tenants including the Apple Store, Michael Kors and Buckle.
Northlake Mall has an 85% occupancy rate, which includes temporary stores and is up from last February’s rate of 74%, according to the latest filings in North Carolina Business Court.
Spirit Halloween also opened a store in the former Rooms to Go on J.W. Clay Boulevard and is planning a location in the former Bed Bath & Beyond in Carolina Pavilion on South Blvd.
