Day of the Dead Skull Measuring Spoons

skull measuring spoonsNo bones about it, these Day of the Dead Skull Measuring Spoons are perfect for when you’re making creepy cupcakes or terrifying treats. They’re in the Calavera style. Calavera is a representation of the human skull made from either sugar or clay, which is used in the Mexican celebration of the Day of the Dead. Bam! You just learned something new.

That makes me a teacher. A sensei. A guru. Luckily I hate learning as much as you do, so it’s recess time. *bell rings* Who’s up for a game of kickball? Oh, I see you started without me. Seriously? I’m still getting picked last? As in not at all? Be that way. Your loss. I was gonna bake a cake and bring it to class, but now I’m just gonna buy one pre-made and cry-eat while I grade your homework. So really, typical night.

Rorschach Mask With Real Moving Inkblots

rorschach mask with real moving inkblots
This Rorschach mask, based on Rorschach from the Watchmen movie/comic is pretty amazing. And not just because I see a butterfly. Wait, no, I see two dragons with graduation hats fighting. It’s amazing because it is made with fabric paint that is temperature sensitive as well as safe and non toxic. In other words, those designs on the mask ACTUALLY MOVE! And it makes me freak out, because I don’t know what to tell my shrink that I see now. Don’t look unless you want nightmares!

It’s bat wings. It’s a KISS band member whose face is melting. It’s a clown with antlers!

Monster Neckties

monster neck tie
It takes a certain kind of weird monster to wear a suit and tie everyday and grovel to the man from behind a desk, while whiling the time away and earning that sweet cheddar. It’s not for me. In fact most days, pants and a shirt isn’t even for me. Oddly enough, footy Pokemon pajamas are for me. Like everyday. Ewww. That smell. But they’re so comfy.

Anyway, if you have to wear a tie everyday, try one of these monster ties from Etsy seller tiestory. I’m gonna wear two at once and make it a Creature Double Feature.

Use these Ouija Board Inspired Invites to invite people to your fancy shindigs. Shindigs… Not sure what that word even means, but it sounds like a Denny’s type restaurant in a one horse town.

*Holds Ouija Board invitation to my head* I sense a stirring in the spirit world. There will be liquor and hors d’Oeuvres. Followed by a nice dinner with expensive champagne. I will stuff pastries into my pockets to take home with me. Yes, spirit says to find the coat room and rummage through pockets for cash and free breath mints.*Comes out of my trance.* That seals it. I’m going! *Moves planchette to YES!*

Roadkill Bunny Rabbit Costume

roadkill bunny costume
This Roadkill Bunny Rabbit Costume begs the question, why did the bunny cross the street? To get to the other side. Get it? The other side? As in the afterlife. Now you can be a roadkill rabbit this Halloween. Complete with blood and gross entrails sticking out everywhere.

Why wait until Halloween? I’m gonna wear this and lay on my neighbor’s lawn next Easter. That way those neighbor kids will know that the bunny died for their sins.
