Thread: San Diego/El Cajon Halloween Stores?

Tweet

My wife will be traveling to CA. San Diego, El Cajon and prob. Hollywood, can anyone recommend any Halloween or related stores that I could make, err ask her to stop in and pick me up somein' ? Even a cool t-shirt, would do.
Thanks in advance,
Dennis

I used to live there and I'm drawing a blank. I used to work for "TikiLand" down by the sports arena/swapmeet, they usually have some good skulls/pirate stuff and lots of cool props he rents out, worth the time to check it out. Last I talked to him he was talking about moving so check out the website. Tiki Land
El Cajon you won't find squat.
Cruising up the I-5 there's a "spirit" store that's great but pricey, it's somewhere in the Santa Ana area I think. Been a long time, I'm sure they have a website. Some killer high dollar props.

Well, for when she's going up to visit Hollywood, along the way, she should have a look at the Halloween Club store in Santa Fe Springs (about 12-14 miles north of Disneyland, up the 5 freeway).
Huge place. Open all year, pretty much.

Can't miss it.

There are 2 Halloween Club Stores within a few miles of each other. (santa fe springs and montebello) Both are filled with so much halloween stuff its unreal!!

San Diego has Buffalo Breath Costumes....but its pretty much just costumes/wigs/makeup.

The newer store is in Montebello... We stopped into that one a few weeks ago on our way back from the Renaissance Fair.... It was soo much stuff, and it looked like they had just gotten in a new shipment... I spent $140 on stuff we didn't even need for this year's haunt/party because I was there.

I do have to say though that we live in San Diego, and will be making the drive up there to both stores in August or September for props/etc...because despite the 100 halloween stores that pop up in San Diego every September, the 2 Halloween Club stores are far superior.

how are their prices?

Wow, that store looks amazing! I'd be there nearly every day if I lived nearby Spirit, Halloween USA, and the like have got nothing on that place

ya know the prices are lower than a lot of the regular halloween stores. I got my Webcaster gun for $49, which isn't such a "GREAT" price, but I didn't have to pay for shipping on it, and they had it and all the glue sticks for it there. They had a really nice selection of foggers that were all very reasonably priced... Some of the stuff is clearly overpriced, but you can definitely find the hidden gems that are more valuable to some of us who are more hardcore. Costumes seemed much lower in price compared to the spirit halloween stores...for those not inclined to create their costumes from scratch like us freaks over here.
