This tiny little dinosaur hiding in this lamp adds the perfect Halloween-y vibes to your home

Posted on by

Invite this little Brachiosaurus who wants to be left alone into your house with this cute lamp!

We are in the final phase of 2021, difficult as that may be to believe, the good thing is we are officially in the festive season. Autumn is in the air, bringing with it the chill and spook of Halloween to your homes. Meet Brachio, this miniature, cute, dinosaur-inspired character that invokes the feeling of wanting to be alone, while not wanting to be left completely alone.

What starts out as a simple white silhouette, on lighting up, it shows Brachio illuminated underneath the sheet. The form has a removable cylinder underneath that can be easily removed to help you switch the bulb. The attention to detail can be seen in the little tail sticking out from underneath the sheet.

Bringing to mind all the sheet-covered ghosts we are sure to see this Halloween, the Mood Lamp Brachio creates a cozy little corner of your home that is sure to bring a smile to your face.

In East Asia, the cartoon characters are created to match the country’s sentiments – the best example of this is the Japanese giant Sanrio who created Gudetama, a lazy egg yolk with a tiny bum that took the country by craze. Want to meet Brachio and get to know him better? Watch the animated clip that shows the moment Brachio burrows under his sheet!

Bringing this ghostly lamp into your home is sure to alleviate some gloom. If you have ever found yourself alone in a crowd, this mood lamp will surely ‘feel’ you and add some Halloween spirit to your bedside!

Turkey Dinner Candy Corn Is Like Willy Wonka’s 3-Course Dinner Gum

Posted on by

Remember that scene in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory when Violet Beauregard chomps down on the 3-course dinner chewing gum? Well, this is kind of like that, though it’s not going to turn you blue when you get to dessert. Honestly, when I first saw that Brach’s had come out with Turkey Dinner, Apple Pie, and Coffee Candy Corn, I had to double-check that it wasn’t April 1st. But nope, It’s October 3rd, and this stuff is real.

Apparently, they also worked in the flavors of green beans, cranberry sauce, and stuffing. I’m assuming that each candy is a different flavor, and they didn’t manage to cram them all into a single piece of candy corn. I think that would result in the same sort of grey mush that you get when you mix all the paint colors together, only with flavors instead of colors.

I know lots of people hate candy corn, so I’m doubtful that changing them to taste like a complete Thanksgiving meal will change their minds. On the other hand, if candy corn is a guilty pleasure for you this time of year, then maybe you’ll want to try a bag of these. They’re available for $2.49 a bag from Walgreens. I wonder if these make you sleepy after you eat them too.

This Skull-Shaped Toilet Wants You to Sit on Its Head

Posted on by

When is a toilet not just a toilet? When it’s the best toilet ever! An eagle-eyed shopper spotted this skull-shaped toilet at a hardware store somewhere in Europe, and now I must have one for my bathroom. Only I need it in time for Halloween, so I’m not sure that’s going to happen. But where can one buy a skull toilet? Well, upon further investigation, it looks like this is sold by a French company called WaterThrone, and it’s not just a skull toilet, but it’s also a Bluetooth speaker and has light-up eyes! SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

The WaterThrone is available in other colors, like gold, black, and grey, along with custom colors, but I think the original off-white is the best since, um, our bones are that color. At least I think mine are, but I haven’t been able to check. The product listing doesn’t say how much it costs to sit on this head, but it does let us know that it can support up to 400 kilograms or 881.85 pounds, so that’s good news.

5-Foot Inflatable Chucky Doll Is Ready to Terrorize Your Neighborhood

Posted on by

From what I recall, Chucky was only three feet tall in the movies, and he was quite the tiny terror at that size. So can you imagine what sort of damage the little devil could do if he were five feet tall? Fortunately for you, you can always just pop this inflatable Chucky doll with a pin if he gets out of control and starts murdering your neighbors.

This light-up, blow-up Chucky doll is dressed up in his iconic Good Guys overalls and striped shirt and has all the facial scars he suffered over the years. Now, as soon as I typed “blow-up Chucky doll,” it dawned on me that there’s probably someone out there with a Chucky fetish, and things just got really creepy. Hopefully, I’m wrong, but as the Internet has proven time and time again, I’m almost certainly not.

You can grab the inflatable Chucky doll from Amazon (affiliate link) for about $60, and you’ll have a blow-up friend ’til the end.

Sub-Zero Has These Human Spine Candles on His Dining Table

Posted on by

Think your 12-foot-tall skeleton display is the creepiest Halloween display on the block? You might have to up your game by this year with something even more disturbing than a giant skinless corpse. When you’re setting the dinner table for guests, light up some of these spine-chilling human spine candles.

Bryan Lawrence of Creepy Candles makes these disturbingly realistic candles that look like they came out of a victim of Sub-Zero’s famed spine-rip fatality in Mortal Kombat. Despite the curvature of the spine, they seem to stand up just fine, so I’m guessing whoever donated their spine was good about their posture while they were alive. Each 10″ tall candle is made to order and is unscented because who wants a spine that smells like vanilla?  They’re sold individually over on Etsy for $28.99. Be sure to grab one of their bleeding hand candles while you’re at it.

 

4-Foot Inflatable Zombie Baby Yard Decoration Is a Real Product That Exists

Posted on by

Because what’s Halloween if not an opportunity for neighbors to question your taste and decency, this is the four-foot-long ‘Halloween Inflatable Outdoor Zombie Baby Blow Up Yard Decoration’ created by GOOSH and available on Amazon (affiliate link). I can already sense my neighborhood’s collective property value plummeting.

The inflatable baby has LEDs inside to illuminate the abomination at night and includes stakes for anchoring, or killing vampires. According to the product description, “Beside Halloween, it can be used as any other holiday decoration. Installed in the courtyard to enjoy Holiday with your family and spreading a happiness atmosphere to your neighborhoods.” Um, are they talking about the same inflatable zombie baby I’m looking at?

Obviously, this is the perfect Halloween yard decoration to encourage parents of would-be trick-or-treaters to pass your house on their way through the neighborhood. “They’re probably just handing out licorice anyways,” I imagine telling my children while hurrying them down the sidewalk.

Silicone Mold Bakes Life-Size Human Skull Cakes: Mmmm, Brains

Posted on by

Sure, you could bake a regular sheet cake for your next party, or you could make something a little bit more morbid with this 3D Skull Head Silicone Cake Mold available on Amazon (affiliate link). The mold creates both front and back skull pieces that, when attached with icing, create a life-size 8.5″ x 5.4″ x 7.1″ cranium. Well, an average life-size cranium. Mine is much larger.

This mold will come in handy around Halloween time. What do you think would make the best edible eyeballs to put in the eye sockets – gumballs? Jawbreakers? Pearl onions? Hardboiled eggs? Of course, those last two would probably be considered more tricks than treats. Especially if you also carved a hole in your skull cake and filled it with spaghetti to mimic brains.

Not much of a cake person? No worries, the silicone molds are equally suitable for making Rice Krispies treats or soap. But, speaking from experience, eating that much soap will probably upset your stomach. To my mom’s credit, though, I’ve never said another dirty word since.

Giant 12-Foot Tall Pumpkin Headed Vine Skeleton Halloween Decoration

Posted on by

Because what’s Halloween if not an opportunity to one-up all your neighbors with over-the-top decorations, this is the 12-ft Giant-Sized Inferno Pumpkin Skeleton with LifeEyes™ LCD Eyes available from Home Depot for $350. I can already imagine my wife asking what the $350 charge from Home Depot was and me lying and telling her it was for power tools. Matt from two doors down doesn’t stand a chance of out-Halloweening me this year!

The giant pumpkin-headed skeleton includes posable arms, a ribcage filled with a glowing flame effect, a fiery mouth, and LCD animated eyes that look around and stare at people passing by. Am I going to leave mine up year-round? For $350, you better believe I am, and I don’t care what the homeowner’s association has to say about it.

It goes without saying that if you have a 12-foot pumpkin king skeleton in your yard, you better be handing out full-size candy bars. Because I think we can all agree having a 12-foot Halloween decoration on your lawn but handing out candy corn or licorice is a recipe for getting your house toilet papered.

3D Printed Scary Hands Reaching Out of Wall: No Touching!

Posted on by

Because some people’s idea of interior design is the Addams Family mansion, these are the Scary Reaching Wall Hands 3D printed and sold by Etsy shop 3DDeluxeStore. Available in black and white in four different styles, they’ll make the perfect coat racks at your next Halloween party. Granted I won’t need to use the coat rack because I’ll be wearing a superhero cape.

The hands cost $10 – $22 depending on the style chosen (ranging in size from a toddler-sized hand to one that’s larger than most adult hands), or you can get a set of all four for $65. Will I rip all the towel bars out of the walls in my bathroom and replace them with these? No, this is a rental property and I’d like to get my full security deposit back.

I am tempted to buy one, that way the next time my wife asks me to lend a hand with something around the house I can tell her it’s fine if she just borrows the one on the wall. I’ll have a good laugh about it, but that laugh will cost me my place in bed that night.

Spooky Friends Waffle Maker Brings Halloween to the Breakfast Table

Posted on by

When you think of Halloween, it typically conjures up images of dark and scary places. Trick-or-treating is generally a nighttime activity except for maybe the tots. One thing that I don’t associate with Halloween is sunrise and breakfast time. However, I have been known to partake in the occasional bowl of Count Chocula or Boo Berry. Now, you can celebrate Halloween with waffles too.

The guys at Waffle Wow! are making this Halloween-inspired waffle maker that cranks out seven different mini waffles for kids to enjoy this October. The waffle shapes include a pumpkin, ghost, haunted house, spider, bat, cat, and cauldron designs. The non-stick cooker is easy to use and makes quick work of pancake or waffle batter.

It’s a fun idea to expand the holiday to breakfast time, though I wonder if this thing would just gather dust for 11 months out of the year. I think I’d rather go with their cars and trucks waffle maker, which I would use year-round. If you like the idea of Halloween waffles, you can get the Spooky Friends Waffle Maker over on Amazon (affiliate link) for $37.95.
