Resurrector Set

Share

At Halloween only, Brach’s Candies makes a pack of sour fruit-flavored candies known as Dem Bones. They’re thoughtfully provided in the shapes of hands, feet, rib cages and leg/arm bones as well as the cliche skull, so little anatomists can assemble whole skeletons before chewing them up. One 14-ounce bag contains about 28 packs of candies (each pack with a skeletal personality: Slim Jim, Boney Tony, Neck Bone Nick and Fractured Fran).

Dem Bones candies, $2.29, at most supermarkets and drug stores.

Skull-O-Rama

If you’d like to make every day Halloween--or just provide a cool conversation piece for a Halloween party--a whole line of grinning-skull-motif tableware awaits your pleasure. Pieces range from a shot glass to an ominous Secret Potion bottle (whose skull looks peculiarly exhilarated). There’s a coffee cup and saucer, of course, and even a dietarily incorrect butter dish.

Skellramica skull ceramics, from $12 (shot glass) to $190 (bottle); at New Stone Age, Los Angeles.
