#skeleton war

well i have to say, a tutti-fruiti disco ghosts were not on my bingo card

okay but I low-key would love the disco candy corn if I had a place to put it XD

these skulls are cute but I super don't understand most of this theme

for example:

like… what is happening here?? the coffin shelf I get

but the other things??

am I missing something??

and this guy would be kind of cute if his gaping maw wasn't so terrifying XD

^v^v^

theme #2: The Black Decor

on the opposite end of the spooky section we have what I'm going to call The Black Decor line. not gonna lie the snake candleholders are pretty cool 🐍

then we have topiary that look like they were stolen from a black and white movie, which is kind of disconcerting o.0

the black "crystal" glassware is really cool though 🖤

^v^v^

theme #3: Spooky Sideshow?

next we have turn of the last century side show art?

interesting. I guess that could be spooky? and the posters are pretty cool

these are just boxes that look like books.

I feel like they could have done more here

also! addendum theme??

theme #3: Spooky Sideshow Circus??

i don't know why, but all this circus stuff was on the other side of the store from the sideshow stuff

love the pumpkins though :3

^v^v^

theme #4: Celestial??

um guys? you've lost the plot. this isn't Halloween related... it's just the moon and sun and tarot cards. they sell stuff like this year round 🌞🌛🤷‍♀️

like they have stuff like this at Home Goods. it's just sky related

cool but not halloween?

lol i don't even know what the hell these are. XD

they don't hold candles! they are basically just crystals on sticks! XD

^v^v^

theme... dang it i already lost count :|

::scrolls back up::

theme #5! Over the Garden Wall :D

this is more my speed! classic victorian halloween decor!

spooky scary skeletons and black cats and witch pumpkins! oh my!

oh no! I love him! D:

maybe it isn't too early to buy halloween stuff… 👻🎃

^v^v^

theme #6: "Normal" Halloween Decor

starting with...

first we have some more editions for your garden if any of you weren't content with the single knock-off audrey 2 they've had previous years!

i like the eyeball one best 👁️🪴

of course we have this year's skeleton people. i am always impressed that they come up with new ones every year. the statue of liberty dressed in black is a little on the nose for this year though...

and this year's "that's NOT how skeletons work" figure

(unfortunately I didn't see the "try me" button so I don't know what it does)

not gonna lie, i kind of love the heart candle too XD

and that's it for this year!

Is it ready for the skeleton war?

The fact that my skeleton has not already ripped itself free from my flesh prison and gone on a rampage is honestly kind of shocking

DRATS ! I have been noticed by the skeleton army recruiter, and- oh, what's that ?

THE WHIMSY ARMY RECRUITERS ??
