Fake Spirit Halloween costumes meme parodies pop culture knockoffs No description found
Spirit Halloween, the iconic costume and prop store, has inspired a slew of memes related to their costumes.
Deemed the “Fake Spirit Halloween Costumes ” meme by database Know Your Meme, the trend originated in 2019, “when the Facebook meme page Guy Fieri’s Post-Ironic Meme Vault uploaded a picture of what appeared to be a Guy Fieri costume being sold at a Spirit Halloween, but the image itself was photoshopped to mimic the design of real costume packaging at the retailer.”
However, the trend re-emerged and “saw a significant spike in usage during the 2022 Spooktober season, when people created humorous costumes such as ‘Tech Tip Man,’” according to Know Your Meme.
