Halloween House, billed as the largest dedicated Halloween store in the UK and Europe, is set to return to the Merry Hill shopping centre in Brierley Hill, West Midlands, in August 2026. The seasonal mega-store will open on the Lower Mall, opposite Boots, offering thousands of costumes, life-size animatronics, horror masks, makeup, and themed homeware.
Shoppers Express Excitement
News of the store's return has sparked enthusiasm among shoppers. One wrote on social media: "AHHHH IM SO HAPPY." Another commented: "Hell yes. can't wait! Tbh you should stay open all year." A third added: "Give us dates stop teasing us. I live 1.5 hours away and always try and visit twice."
Store Announcement and History
Earlier this month, Halloween House teased its return on Instagram, stating: "The wait is almost over, you lovely lot! Let’s make sure every Halloween fan sees this. Who’s coming through those doors first?" The Merry Hill shopping centre also shared the news, posting: "Summerween > summer heatwave. We’re so ready for you @halloweenhouseuk coming August 2026." The exact opening date has not been confirmed, but the store has been a fixture at the centre for several years, operating only during the Halloween season. In 2024, actor Paddy Considine, star of House of the Dragon, visited the location to pick up his Halloween essentials.
