Have you seen the Halloween pop-up store between 113th and 114th on Broadway? If not, fret not, we have a review for you. Staff writer Ana Rael and deputy editor Youngweon Lee took a trip down Spooky Street to get in the mood for Halloween. The store is actually fairly extensive, complete with a classic college costume section, a vaguely political section, a children’s section, various movies and TV shows sections, crazy masks, and endless supplies of corsets and accessories to make your own costumes. Here are some highlights from the store. Just flip through the gallery and see what this weird creepy place is about.
