ScarePros Halloween World

Turns out this store is within an hour from here and it's open all year long.  Definitely planning a visit.

The Weeping Glass

Never visited this neat shop, but it appears to be the store featured in the old Friday the 13th tv series from the 80's...  The Weeping Glass is a true Oddities & Curiosities Shoppe.

I always wanted to work in this store...

They are in the process of moving to a new location, so I wanted to feature them as I brew some of their fine hot elixirs on this weird windy snowy day. 

Hope to visit the new location some day.

Gravestone Girls

One of my earliest blog posts was about this fine shop.  Happy to be the proud owner of two of their pieces.  It was super neat meeting one of the owners at the Market of the Macabre on Saturday.

My new piece in all of its moody gloomy glory.

Lunar Light Company

These are some high-end super-scented candles.  

I've ordered a few of them and the scent descriptions are spot-on (usually scent descriptions embellish and flat-out lie [I'm bitter]).  

Here are some from their site:

A smoky & haunting scent, smoked woods and spicy cloves mingle with pine needles and herbs. Autumn leaves fall on a bed of earthy sage and moss. Imagine a cool & grey graveyard colored in red, gold and brown leaves - This is Autumn in the Graveyard.  

Notes: Smoked Woods - Leaves - Clove - Pine - Sage - Moss

Wet leaves on top of damp earth. Rich birch wood highlighted with dirt, oak wood and aged tree bark. This scent will transport you to the creepiest town around, Shadyside Ohio. 

Notes: Leaves - Birch - Earth - Dirt - Petrichor - Garden Mint.

Ohhh, haunted….Soft and delicate, ripe purple figs and cinnamon bark mingle with notes of pine needle, winter woods, and creamy sandalwood. Reminiscent of a quiet, peaceful, snowy graveyard.

Notes:  Fig - Cinnamon Bark - Pine Needle - Frosted Cedar - Sandalwood 

Sweet incense and moss on a bed of aged wood and damp leaves. Patchouli musk and oak wood provides a rich and dark finishing base to this spellbinding fragrance. Warning: this scent may have you grab the nearest broom and will have you flying into the night! 

Notes: Incense - Moss - Aged Wood - Patchouli - Musk - Oak Wood

This fragrance starts with spicy black pepper and strong notes of teakwood and cardamom for a sharp edge. Earthy wet moss, vetiver and hints of citrus fruits give it a natural base. Dark, alluring, and strangely romantic!

Notes: Teakwood - Black Pepper - Cardamom - Vetiver - Citrus - Moss

Walmart

Cool to see Mr. Jones being carried at Walmart.
I heard this was a big deal by way of volume.

Such a huge fan of photographs of Halloween store displays.

Some of our outings (scary how many photos I've taken of store displays).

Target Halloween

Seems like most of Target's stuff is out at the store near me, but it seemed lacking. I'm hoping more is on the way.



31 days of Halloween treat box! (peeked and the first day is a little tiny gummy human heart).
