Skip the big box stores and discover the magic in your community.

The Small Spooky Business Crawl is a self-guided shopping adventure that connects you with independent spooky shops, artists, makers, bookstores, apothecaries, boutiques, and creators across the United States. Whether you're exploring your hometown or planning a road trip with your spooky besties, every stop is an opportunity to discover unique treasures while supporting the small businesses that keep our community thriving.

Unlike large retailers, every purchase from a small spooky business supports a real person with a dream. Your dollars help artists create, makers craft, shop owners grow, and local communities flourish.

How It Works

• Browse participating spooky businesses throughout the United States.

• Plan your own shopping route or weekend adventure.

• Visit as many participating locations as you'd like.

• Shop, explore, and discover one-of-a-kind finds you won't see in big box stores.

• Share your adventure and inspire others to shop small.

There are no required routes, no schedules, and no limits. Shop at your own pace and create a weekend that's as spooky as you are.

Why Shop Small?

When you choose an independent spooky business, you're helping:

• Support women-owned and independently owned businesses

• Keep unique, handcrafted, and specialty products available

• Strengthen local economies and communities

• Encourage creativity, craftsmanship, and entrepreneurship

• Preserve the wonderfully weird shops that make every town a little more magical
