This poster says “Der Nacht de Lebenden Toten.” It’s been signed by the cast of the 1968 film. Framed on your wall, this would be quite a conversation piece for your dinner party guests! ...

This latex bat can sit on your shoulder, enhancing your Dracula costume. Or just walk into your next dinner party wearing this bat on your shoulder and see what your friends do. ...

I think it would just about do me in to walk into someone’s home and see this corpse rising out of a coffin prop. The seller says it doesn’t require air or power, making it easy to surprise people outdoors, too. (Like in the creepy woods near my house!) ...

I love the idea of this parasitic twin costume. I’ve been to quite a few big Halloween parties, and never seen anyone in a costume like this. Probably you should come up with a witty or quirky name for your “twin,” but you probably shouldn’t try to use it as a ventriloquist’s dummy. Your pre-teen or tween can also go ...

It’s unusual to see classic horror icons depicted in anything other than plastic or vinyl. Here’s a retro cloth Dracula by Universal Monsters. Wolfman is another in the cloth doll series. I guess the cloth makes it easier for his hairs to sprout during the full moon! The series wouldn’t be complete without a cloth Frankenstein figure. I bet the ...

Perhaps he starved to death inside his cell, then re-animated, like some prisoners on the current season of The Walking Dead. This variation on the costume is a caged skeleton. My least favorite cage costume is this caged gorilla. It doesn’t make sense to me – why ...

Incredibly, someone took the time to alter a Barbie doll into this El Dia de Los Muertos altar doll. They repainted her face, redressed her completely in a skeleton bride lacy white dress, and rewigged her. Decorate your altar with marigolds, candles, incense, beads, and this cheerfully grim Barbie altar doll! ...

At just four inches tall, these trinket boxes don’t hold much. But they’re sure adorable. I wouldn’t store food or candy in them, but they’d be great for necklaces, earrings, and other jewelry. Yellow Sugar Skull El Dia de Los Muertos Trinket Box Black Day of the Dead Sugar Skull Jewelry Box Day of the Dead Sugar Skull Trinket Box, ...
