I've been waiting for weeks to see what was going to come of Bath and Body Works Halloween season merchandise and I can easily say, it's not great. It's not even that much.
Last season ('11) they had all sorts of scents, candles, candle holders, and little decorative touches that were totally irresistible and cute. I bought quite a few items there and felt satisfied at their selection. It erroneously built me up to expect some similar things this year, but I was let down.
I'm not sure if someone just thought no one really bought them last year, or no one cared this year, but the selection is pitifully small.
About 2 (count them 2) new candle holders:
One being this haunted house that holds 3 small candles inside it
Yes, it's cute but it's also $50.00!
Then there's Mr. and Mrs. Frankenstein
The bride of Frankenstein is new, but Frank was around last year. The only difference is that his mouth is a little more open and his stitches have moved. Both of them hold small candles and are $6.50 each.
They have a few more things, but the choice is so small this year, I just feel really underwhelmed.
They don't even have any cutely decorated Halloween candles to offer. They have the usual hand anti-bacterial tubes, the soaps, a soap cover, autumn scented candles....that's it.
I'm wondering if this is really it or is there more that they're hiding, only to be released closer to Halloween? Somehow, I doubt this, but I can hold out hope for a little bit longer.
