Weeping Angel Tree Topper: Because Christmas Needs to Be Abjectly Terrifying

Halloween has just wrapped up, and the last parties have been attended, but it has left you with a feeling. It’s a feeling that all holidays might be better if they were a little more terrifying. Perhaps we need to chase our grandchildren with turkey organs on Thanksgiving (I was that grandchild. Good solid fun, that), or tell our kids that the Easter bunny bites a few kids in every town whenever he comes through, or that on Presidents’ Day the spirit of Andrew “Old Hickory” Jackson appears before lone wanderers at night and beats them with his cane.

But how shall we make Christmas scary? It’s so over-sweet and cheerful by nature? How about by topping the tree not with a traditional angel, but with this: a Doctor Who Weeping Angel, available from ThinkGeek for $19.99(USD). If that doesn’t make your tree seem a little more malevolent and dangerous, we don’t know what will. Perhaps we can add some stilettos instead of icicles, and hand grenades instead of ball ornaments. Yes… yes… we’re getting somewhere.

Doctor Who Weeping Angel Stress Toy: Whatever You Do, Don’t Squeeze

Do stress balls actually work for you? Then don’t get Underground Toys’ officially licensed Weeping Angel Stress Toy. Because I think it works the other way around: when you squeeze it, you get stressed.

I’m not sure why I’m telling you this, but you can pre-order this abomination from Big Bad Toy Store for $25 (USD).

Weeping Angel Tree Topper: Just Don’t Use Blinking Lights

Don’t blink. Don’t use lights that blink on your Christmas tree. Otherwise it is bound to be a very short holiday season for you if you have a weeping angel tree topper.

weeping angel tree topperArtist and crafter Cynthia posted a step-by-step tutorial on how to make your own weeping angel Christmas tree topper. It isn’t as difficult as you think, but it is dangerous. Basically you will be using a plastic water bottle, a Barbie doll, modeling clay, tape, glue, and paint.

However, bringing weeping angels into this reality could kill you. Remember, always work in a mirrored room so you can keep an eye on your creation. Make one for your tree if you want, but don’t say we didn’t warn you.

Weeping Angel Barbie: Don’t Blink!

Whatever you do Ken, don’t blink. If you are in the Malibu Beach House soaking up the sun’s rays by the pool, or riding along with Barbie in her convertible, don’t do it. Not even for an instant. Always keep your eyes on Barbie – and keep them wide open.

While I’m sure that Barbies must have been turned into weeping angels before at some point, you have to admire the dedication and the quality of Sarah Franz-Wichlacz’s work here. But if Sarah is making weeping angels, does that make her Doctor Who’s greatest foe?
