Come To Me, My Darlings

     Hocus Pocus is among my top 5 favorite Halloween movies.  A few years ago, I came across a custom vinyl figure collection of the Sanderson sisters.  They were really well done, but the price tag was a bit hefty for me because they weren't original Funko figures.  Since then, I have been longing for Funko to come out with them.  I have been waiting...and waiting...and waiting...

     Well, this year they have finally arrived!  Spirit Halloween got the exclusive.  I pre-ordered them right away.  I have a Trick 'r Treat Sam Funko Pop vinyl figure and I managed to get the final remaining ones at regular price.  I bought one for myself and the other for my nephew.  He was Sam at my wedding.  They are now retired and very difficult to find.  If you do manage to find one you're going to spend a pretty penny.  I was not risking missing out on these.

     They arrived yesterday and I couldn't be happier with them.  It's the 25th anniversary and there is so much cool Hocus Pocus merchandise coming out.  I've got my eye on the Target exclusive DVD coming out with the limited edition 40-page gallery book.  I also want the hardcover Hocus Pocus all-new sequel book on Amazon.

The hideaway books in the background came from The Dollar Tree

     If you like to collect these vinyl figures and/or love Hocus Pocus go to Spirit Halloween and pick up the set.  It's $36.99 for the set.  They have a 20% off promo code right now.  They should show up in the Spirit retail stores too, but I can't guarantee that.  They have lots of other Hocus Pocus brand items as well.

Until next time my peculiar friends...

Hello, October!

Giveaway at ShellHawk's Nest

One of my favorite blogs, ShellHawk's Nest, is giving away six 25% off coupon codes to six lucky winners for AtmosFX.  I've been drooling over this company's products for a couple of years now.  I was really hoping to get the projection kit to have at our Hallowedding this year.  Alas, it was not in our budget.  AtmosFX is coming out with a Trick or Treat digital decoration this year!  I will definitely be getting this in preparation for buying the kit.  You don't have to buy the kit, though.  You can use an HD projector and see-through mesh material (see the Tips & Tricks section on the website for more information).  They have many wonderful digital decorations even...eck...Christmas...eck...ones too.  If you're interested in ShellHawk's fantabulous giveaway, please follow the link below and read her post to find out how to enter:

Look What's Out at Michaels Craft Store!

Now that the 4th of July is over, we decided to check out some of our favorite stores to see if the Halloween decor is out yet.  Woot!  Woot!  Michaels has started putting their stuff out!

It looks like the main color schemes are black, bone, metallic gold and silver, velveteen, and splashes of burgundy.  I really liked the velveteen items, but with cats and an old rickety house that manufactures its own dust by the hour, there was no way I could bring them home.  Unfortunately, we did not bring anything home with us today, but rest assured that we are picking our pieces wisely.
