US stores opened their Halloween corners in August, so creators film first-person cart tours, picking up each new prop on camera. The season jump is spreading into parties, snacks and DIY that mix summer with Halloween.
Editor's note
You don't have to be a retailer for the open-the-season-early hook to work. If a fall product is sitting in storage, shoot the concept of pulling it out ahead of time. Every 'already?' comment turns into reach.
How to do it
- Slowly sweep the seasonal aisle in a first-person cart POV
- Pick up items you like, hold each to the camera for 3 seconds with a quick reaction
- Open with a Halloween already? caption and make the off-season drop itself the meme
