It's almost Halloween, so it's finally the end of Spirit Halloween's reign over the local abandoned Sears. Your local liminal spaces have been occupied by something objectively less spooky, which is the famous seasonal franchise we only think about two months out of the year.

It only appears once a year, and even then, it hardly gets enough customers to keep itself alive, but it's still a place to visit when you're looking to get in the mood for the holiday. And perhaps one of the best reasons people go there is to see how much these staff members have drastically altered every liminal space they're occupying, which is one of the many reasons this chain's appearance is a popular seasonal meme. Here are some of our favorite memes about it.
