Got some really great spooky stuff this year from my Trick or Treat Santa.

I got this great African animal mask to hang in my room. I used to work as a tutor for the art department in college and I used to help students make these for one of the assignments. It's a neat little reminder in a way.

I also got a bag of bones. I don't have many decorations this year for Halloween so I'm thinking about maybe lightly burying these in the front yard to spook a couple passerby.

The last item is my favorite. It's this really wonderful detailed monster skull. The monster seems to also have earrings which is awesome.

Thank you Santa.

EDIT: Wow, these gifts just keep on coming.

I got some scary horror themed shower curtains. They look pretty darn sweet. Unfortunately, my shower is really small, but that just means I'll have to get clever about how to use it.

This next thing quickly beat out monster skull for my favorite skull. You tried monster skull but this has got you beat. A bit of back story first so people understand how awesome this is. I love making things and Halloween definitely allows me to send some friends some spooky homemade items or just creepy stuff in general in a light prank gesture. Since I have amazon prime I decided to google "Creepiest things you can send someone on Amazon". And there are a surprising number of weird stuff you can send people including 1,000+ live ladybugs, preserved animal fat, a drum of industrial grade lube. This is relevant because on the list there was something I read that I remembered and stayed hidden in the back of my mind until I received it today.

Yes, lo and behold the a single Magic the Gathering card appropriately named "Torture". Simple amazing and to the point. I had myself a good hearty chuckle. One of the things on the list was sending someone a single MtG card for Torture. Such an elegantly creepy gesture. It's by far my favorite thing from this exchange. I'm thinking about possibly framing it for maximum visibility and effect.

Thank you once again Santa.
