The season of scary is never out of season, especially when you can get something as simple as a candle to do bidding of the evil overlords. Once you light the skull candle, red wax flows out through the skull’s eyes giving an appearance of blood. Not to mention, the hollow eyes of the skull show a raging inferno within. Costs £20 ($33).
Shaker My Head salt and pepper shakers are two cute looking skulls with heart shapes for eye sockets. Dotted red bows that they sport on their heads add to the cute factor. Cost $18.
Skulls go exceptionally well with brains, which is the reason I always prefer to keep my brain firmly in the skull. Sometimes it is a little too tight, but mostly, I’m okay. This love affair of skull and brain has taken the next step where they’re together as furniture. Artist/designer Vladi Rapaport has crafted a combo of a skull chair and brain ottoman, both destined to be together just like god intended.
Under regular circumstances, if someone were to imagine Mickey Mouse with a skull, we would prepare ourselves to look at a scary version. That’s just a fair bet. As a rule, that part wouldn’t have anything to do with cute, unlike the sculptures we see here.
Skull portraits by artist Phil Robinson combine photography and image manipulation. But best of all, they combine skulls and sneakers, and do that quite handsomely. The prints are priced at $49.
In the grand scheme of things, some items are created for the sole purpose of being badass and spreading the gospel of badassery. Case in point: This skull mask biker helmet that was seen at the Harley Davidson National Rally in China. Or that’s just the Ghost Rider who totally forgot about concealing his identity. We’re more inclined to believe the latter theory.

We doubt Philip Watts Design made the Skull Door Handles especially with Halloween in mind, but it’s the season so we’re going to assume they were. The stylish and spunky door handles come in the choices of aluminium, bronze, brass and Swarovski crystal, with a price tag that sticks at $800 for the aluminum version and rises to $1600 for the Swarovski version. Nevermind the cost, we’re pretty sure Count Dracula wouldn’t ever get cheap, run-off-the-mill stuff for his spooky castle.
Playing on the famous line from The Fifth Element is all we could think of, seeing the Skull popsicles by London-based photographer David Sykes. Yeah, we know it’s a sad analogy, but bear with us. The popsicles are from the series Skull Lolly that Sykes made in cooperation with Hamilton Ice Sculptors. Deliciously morbid looks have their benefits.
There are creepy skulls and then there are these overly crafted skulls. And even in that weird form, the porcelain skulls show the skill of artist Katsuyo Aoki. These aren’t all that creepy, and we’d give them top points for being that artistic.
