Holiday Gifts and Plans for Horror Fans

Spider stockings are hung by the chimney with scare, as horror fans add festive frights to their lair. What gift do you get a horror Funatic? Something ghoul & sprinkled with ghosts from the attic… 

Warm the cockles of their dark hearts with merry and fright gatherings—and gifts. Here’s how:

Such a Merry Scream

Hang raven wreaths on the door, or string lights around the candy “cauldron?” If your festivities cross seamlessly from Halloween to the holidays, then you might be in good company with horror Funatics who celebrate scary stories and fandoms year-round. Invite them over for a fiendishly festive time. 

Summon them with a vintage invitation featuring Krampus or Belsnickel—or Big Foot dressed as Santa. Greet them wearing something cozy, comfy, and frightfully fun, such as a Disney’s Mickey & Minnie Ghost Floral Hoodie or Stitch Ghost Costume Hoodie by Loungefly.

You might also find an ornament that grabs you from our U.S. Funko shop online.

POP! Venkman & Slimer Ornaments, Ghostbusters

Bake up your favorite refrigerator-cookies and cut them out in wicked wild shapes for guests. Serve creepy cocoa (which is just cocoa, but maybe with extra sprinkles or holiday flavors) and “buttered snow monster snacks” (popcorn).

Awfully Fun and Festive Activities

Gather your fiends and go caroling in costumes or stay in for a night of horror movie trivia with gifts for the winners. Select Funko Pocket POP! Keychains and wrap them in eerie paper. Or, you can always watch your favorite holiday-themed horror movies (like Gremlins) and put together a Stranger Things puzzle.

If the horror fan on your list wants a creepy doll, there are plenty of fan-favorite options, including a M3GAN backpack by Loungefly, our Chucky collection, and POP! Annabelle.
