Halloween Shop Simulator

A new shop on Halloween Street

You just rented a tiny shop on a street full of slimes, skeletons, yetis and ghosts. Halloween is coming, and every monster in town needs a costume. Or at least a bag of candy.
Open the door. They're already on their way.

Morning: stock up

Order on Ghoulware, your shop computer, and the boxes show up in the delivery area. Carry them in and fill the shelves one product at a time, or hold the button and stock fast.
36 products in 6 families, from candy to premium animatronics. You pick the prices.

Afternoon: the checkout rush

Customers grab a basket and start shopping. Beep every item through the scanner, then take the card or count out the change. Hate math? Turn on assisted change.
Price too high and they walk out. Price too low and the rent eats you.

Make it spooky (the cozy kind)

Build mode lets you put shelves, racks, cauldrons, tombstones and candelabras anywhere you like. Dress up the window display and monsters on the sidewalk stop to stare, then walk in.
Set up a rising ghost, a cackling witch or a creaky scarecrow and watch your customers jump.
Someone getting on your nerves? Throw a box at them. They fall over, get back up and are not happy about it.

When the shop closes…

...the street wakes up. Get a night license and open for the late shift, or hire a night crew to run it for you.
Trick-or-treat kids knock on your door, and they want candy. Judges walk by for the Facade Contest. 30 firefly pumpkins glow around town after dark, and finding them earns rewards like a giant glowing pumpkin for your storefront.
Take the phenomena camera out to snap UFOs and ghost parades, or throw darts at the Coffin Tavern for tickets.

Adopt a little monster

Auntie Tentacle runs the Moon Shelter, full of little monsters looking for a home. Take home a Slimelet or a Batling, buy treats and give it a bed.
On full moon nights, set up a stall at the Full Moon Fair and enter your pet in the Pet Contest.

The neighbors need favors

Mrs. Hexley the witch lost her cat Inky. Again. Boo the ghost kid wants to be scary and would like you to be scared, please. Mr. Brasa ran out of mustard, and a hot dog cart without mustard is just a cart.
6 neighbors, 28 favors and a finale: win the witches' Council vote and Hexley's street becomes the town's Halloween legend.

From corner shop to megastore

Hire a cashier, a stocker and a cleaner. Unlock a storage room, a bigger sales floor and the final annex. Once the street is yours, open branches in other cities and grow each kiosk into a megastore.
