Spirit Halloween, the iconic costume and prop store, has inspired a slew of memes related to their costumes. Twitter users are now parodying knock-off costumes by adding various pop culture icons to Spirit Halloween packaging and slapping on an absurd (yet usually accurate) name. And the "Our Flag Means Death" version of the ruthless Captain Blackbeard was reduced to "Leather Clad Middle Aged Sad Sack." Spirit Halloween has not yet publicly addressed its widely memed costumes. In a response to a request for comment, a spokesperson for the store said, "Stay tuned to our Twitter and Instagram accounts this evening."
