Halloween falls on a Saturday this year, so there is plenty of time for a film night, a spooky party at school or a small gift for a young fan. You do not need to make a costume for it. With pyjamas, slippers or socks from a favourite series you are in the mood within minutes, and after 31 October they simply stay in use. In this article we list the best Halloween items from our range, by brand and by budget. Everything is officially licensed, and orders placed by 4 PM are dispatched the same day. Browse the full Halloween collection or read on for our tips.
Dressing up made easy: pyjamas and slippers as a Halloween outfit
The easiest way to join in with Halloween is an outfit you would wear anyway. Black Wednesday pyjamas in 100% cotton (€12.95) make an instantly recognisable costume: black, simple and a little gloomy, just like Wednesday Addams herself. Add the Wednesday slippers (€12.95) and the outfit is complete for a film night on the sofa or a sleepover.
For young wizards there are the Harry Potter Find The Way To Hogwarts pyjamas (€14.95). Handy for parents: pyjamas as a costume are comfortable, wash well and get worn for the rest of the winter. So you are not buying a costume for just one evening.
Wednesday: spooky in style
Wednesday has been the most popular Halloween theme with girls aged 8 to 14 for a few years now. Besides the pyjamas and slippers there is a Wednesday notebook (€7.95), a nice small gift for a Halloween treat bag or as an extra with a bigger present.

Stranger Things: Hawkins at home
The final season of Stranger Things is still fresh in the memory, and many fans rewatch the series around Halloween. The Stranger Things Hellfire Club socks (3 pairs, size 38-45) (€14.95) are a gift for teenagers and adults who will get the reference straight away. If you would rather give something to get creative with, choose the Stranger Things writing set in TV gift box (€14.95): the box is shaped like an old television and does not even need wrapping.

Nightmare Before Christmas: from Halloween to Christmas
Jack Skellington is the one character you can keep wearing from late October right through the Christmas holidays. The Nightmare Before Christmas socks in gift packaging (3 pairs, size 35-41) cost €7.95, and the same set is also available in size 40-46. For a bigger gift there is the Nightmare Before Christmas beauty set with toiletry bag (€9.95), with a hairbrush and scrunchies in a toiletry bag featuring Jack and Sally.

Chucky and Disney Villains: for those who like it a little scarier
Not every Halloween fan is a child. For adults who love horror films, the Chucky sock gift set with 3 pairs (€12.56) is a gift that lands straight away. See the Chucky collection for details.
The Disney villains sit right in between: recognisable for children, with enough style for adults. The Disney Villains socks (3 pairs, size 36-43) (€9.95) and the Disney Villains toiletry bag (€5.95) are small gifts that go well together. For on the go there is the Disney Villains Bad Vibes Only backpack (€13.95) with the Evil Queen from Snow White. See everything in the Disney Villains collection.
Harry Potter: Halloween at Hogwarts
Halloween belongs to Harry Potter like the Great Hall belongs to Hogwarts. With a 42 cm Harry Potter backpack (€14.95) or the sturdier Gryffindor backpack of 40 x 30 x 12 cm (€44.95), a school bag instantly looks different. For the fan who has everything there is the Hogwarts calligraphy writing set with quill, ink and sealing wax (€25.95).
Smaller gifts that work well: the Harry Potter sock set with 12 pairs (€24.95), which gives you twelve small gifts in one, the Gryffindor toiletry bag (€9.95) and the 20 cm Harry Potter wallet (€29.95) for older fans. Browse the full Harry Potter collection.
New this season: Skeletor and Gizmo
Two newcomers for fans who grew up with the films and series of the eighties. The Masters of the Universe Skeletor socks (3 pairs, size 38-45) (€14.95) are a gift for dads and uncles who still know He-Man by heart. The Gremlins Gizmo writing set (€14.95) has a plush notebook with Gizmo's fur and a matching pen. You will find both in the Halloween collection.

Frequently asked questions about Halloween merchandise
Are all Halloween items officially licensed?
Yes. Everything in our Halloween collection is official merchandise from Netflix, Disney, Warner Bros, Universal and others. So you get the real prints and characters, not imitations.
What sizes are the socks and pyjamas?
The socks in gift packaging usually come in two sizes: 35-41 and 40-46 (or 36-43 and 38-45). The size is in the product title. Pyjamas and slippers come in children's sizes, and you will find a size chart on the product page.
When should I order to have it in time for Halloween?
Orders placed on working days by 4 PM are dispatched the same day. Halloween falls on Saturday 31 October. For delivery outside the Netherlands, it is best to order by Monday 26 October.
What age are Wednesday and Stranger Things suitable for?
The items themselves are for all ages, but the series are not meant for the youngest children. If in doubt, check the age rating. For younger children, Nightmare Before Christmas, Disney Villains and Harry Potter are often a better choice. Chucky and Skeletor are mostly popular with adult fans.
Can I combine several brands in one order?
Yes, everything is sent in one parcel. That way you can buy gifts for several fans in the family in one go.
