Ten Hocus Pocus Product Finds July And August 2022

8/31/2022

0 Comments

Spooky Season is here and it is flying by so fast! One minute it's April and now we're about to fall into the 'ber' months with September starting tomorrow.

I absolutely love this time of year and have been so busy that I actually forgot all about my finds for July, so this month is a bumper month filled with ten finds instead of five.

All of the products in this months list are available now and would all be perfect for your growing collections and also the release of Hocus Pocus 2!

Check out the list below!

Cross Stitch Kit

If like me, you're quite a crafty person, you'll love this new Cross Stitch Kit!

The kit has everything you to make three of the four designs that you can make inside the box. Inside you'll find threads, a 3 inch hoop, cotton Aida cloth, needles and a small booklet which contains guides for all 4 designs.

You can pick up your own kit right here.

Hocus Pocus: The Illustrated Novel

I have been waiting for this to be released ever since is was revealed earlier this year.

The brand new illustrated novel includes the Hocus Pocus story taken from the All New Sequel book which was released in 2018, but with brand new illustrations throughout. The book is absolutely stunning and fans of the story will absolutely love the new style for each of the characters.

Written by A W Jantha and illustrated by Gris Grimly, this is definitely one for the fans. The hidden cover underneath the sleeve is a really nice touch too.

You can order this from Amazon however I purchased my copy from Blackwells.

Hocus Pocus Spell Book

Disney seem to be getting a little more serious with their witchy Hocus Pocus products this year and this Spell Book is no exception.

The book itself has been written as if Wini, Sarah and Mary themselves had worked together to create a book. The book is filled with spells and stories throughout.

Fans of the film will love this book and it makes a great addition to any Hocus Pocus collection.

You can pick up your copy right here.

Hocus Pocus 2 Candles

Hocus Pocus 2 is less than a month away and I personally cannot be more excited! So when Goose Creek Candles announced they were releasing a set of eight Hocus Pocus 2 candles, I was over the moon.

They were kind enough to send me all 8 candles from the new range and i'm very happy to say they look even better in person. The designs are gorgeous and I especially love the set of three candles that represent the colours of the Sanderson Sisters. They also smell amazon and they would definitely be a nice touch to your Hocus Pocus 2 watch party this September!

Although they're only available in the USA you can pick them up right here.

Hocus Pocus Countdown

Hocus Pocus 13 Frights of Halloween is definitely on my top ten list of favourite Hocus Pocus releases so far this year.

The countdown calendar opens up like a book to reveal 13 envelopes inside. When you reach 13 days to Halloween, the countdown begins and you can open to reveal a new treat each day.

When I first saw the pictures for this online, I actually thought that a large amount of the treats within this calendar had been revealed but I was so wrong. There are so many products inside each envelope and I cannot say this enough, this is definitely a must for any fan!

Pick up your own calendar right here.

Hocus Pocus Tarot Cards

The second witchy product on todays list is the newly released set of Hocus Pocus Tarot Cards.

These cards are absolutely stunning and if you're into tarot, you need these! If you're just a fan of Hocus Pocus.... you need these too!

The set contains all 78 major and minor arcana cards and also includes a 128 page guidebook for those who are new to tarot. This set features so many of the characters from the film, including the obvious main characters and other such characters as the parents, the bus driver and even Elijah!

You can pick up this set right here.

Emily Binx Crossbody Bag

Loungefly have very quickly grown to become well know with famous brands and great movie tie-in merchandise. They always release amazing Hocus Pocus products which are sadly aimed more at female customers and so I never buy any of it... that was until this bag appeared.

This Emily Binx tombstone bag recreates her tombstone from the film, it has heaps of detail and even glows in the dark!! The bag has a Black Flame Candle enamel pin attached along with an embroidered Binx too. Inside also features a Sanderson Sisters full print. Although I will never personally use it.... I needed it for my collection!

You can pick up this bag right here.

Hocus Pocus Bedsheets

One thing that has been such a nice surprise this year from the UK is an increase in official Hocus Pocus merchandise.

Already this year we've seen official Hand Towels and Cushions from Homesense and TK Maxx and now Asda is also bringing us magical goodies in the form of bedsheets, t-shirts and even knickers (I never thought i'd be writing about Hocus Pocus underwear this year but here we are).

The bedsheets from Asda are available in Single and Double sizes. They feature a large "Welcome to the Sisterhood" design on one side with a white designs featuring a repetitive print on the other.

You can pick up a set right here.

Hocus Pocus 2 Apparel

If you were looking for Hocus Pocus 2 apparel this year, Amazon has you covered.

They've release a whole series of Hocus Pocus 2 themed products including the first poster design, Hocus Pocus 2 logo and even designs featuring new characters too.

These new designs are available on a variety of different products, including Tees, Hoodies, vests and more!

Check out all of the designs right here.

Hocus Pocus Binx Jewellery Set

The final product on todays list is a newly released jewellery set from Truffle Shuffle.

This set includes a necklace and matching earrings featuring our all time favourite black cat Binx. They're made from silver metal with enamel charms.

The set is officially licensed and available right now, just click here.

Five Hocus Pocus Product Finds June 2022

6/30/2022

1 Comment

June is coming to an end and what a month this has been for Hocus Pocus fans!

This month saw the release of a brand new Movie Moments Pop at Spirit Halloween in the USA and the very first teaser trailer and posters for Hocus Pocus 2.

As we creep closer to Hocus Pocus 2, October and Halloween 2022, the next few months are guaranteed to be bursting with spooky surprises and of course Hocus Pocus merchandise!

All of the below finds are from small businesses and as always, links are included with each post!

Binx Acrylic Pin

If you love Binx the cat, you'll love this!

This pin is made from clear acrylic and has Binx standing in front of a bright moon and purple clouds/smoke.

Measuring approximately 1.25 inches, this would look great on any outfit this Halloween! You can also pick up a matching Dani pin and sticker from this store too.

To grab yours just click here.

Hocus Pocus Ice Cream Pin

Summerween officially started this month and what better way to add a spooky touch to these long, warm summer months than with this ice cream pin!

This isn't just any ice cream pin though, this is a Sanderson Sisters glittery pin that is guaranteed to add a little magic to your summer outfits.

The pin features Mary, Wini and Sarah on top of a sundae glass thats filled with ice cream. Spell is also written across the front of this 1.77 inch pin.

I really like this pin, mainly for the fact it's so different to what we usually see for a Hocus Pocus inspired pin and with Summer in full swing, this really is such a great pin to celebrate the warmer months with the Sanderson Sisters.

You can pick up this pin right here.

Hocus Pocus Square Prints

I came across the third product on todays list only this morning and instantly fell in love with them.

These Hocus Pocus prints are available in four different designs and feature Sarah, Mary, Wini and Billy in different scenes from the film.

Each print measures approximately 8 inches by 8 inches and you can purchase each design individually or as a set of four for a lower price.

I absolutely love each design but if I had to pick, Billy is definitely my favourite from the four.

You can pick up these prints right here.

Sistahs Pin!

The third and final pin on todays list is this Sistahs! Pin.

The pin, as the name suggests, features a silhouette of the three Sanderson Sisters against a bright yellow circle. They're also surrounded by glittery stars and the moon. "Sistahs!" is written across the front in glittery text too.

This pin would pair really well with the Binx pin mentioned above. Measuring approximately 3 inches wide, it's definitely not a small pin but is perfect for any fan.

Grab your very own pin right here.

Hocus Pocus Patch

One thing I am really looking forward to over the next few months is all of the fan merchandise that will be created.

This Hocus Pocus embroidered patch features the Hocus Pocus 2 title text. Although there is no '2' with the text for the sequel film, this is still a great patch for those looking forward to the sequel and would be great to add to your collection too. The patch measures approximately 2 inches x 2 inches and has an iron-on backing.

You can pick up your very own Hocus Pocus patch right here.

Ten Spooky Product Finds June 2022

6/29/2022

0 Comments

Another month is coming to an end which means another month closer to Halloween and we're now officially at the beginning of Spooky Season!

TK Maxx and Homesense here in the UK have finally started to stock spooky products and I could not be anymore happier! It is always so exciting to see spooky things appearing in store and the fact that this year appears to be the earliest year so far, is a treat all by itself!

The past month I have discovered so many wonderful products, especially spooky pins and like usual, the majority of the products below are from small businesses too.

Halloween Forever Print

Stores are starting to stock spooky products and for those of us who look forward to this time of year, this print is perfect for you.

This Halloween Forever print from Sandstar Art is available in A5 and can be purchased with a mount for easy framing.

The print is so adorable and features two cute ghosts holding a large love heart. A sweet little bat and Jack o'lantern are above, with autumnal flowers around the heart too.

You can pick up this print and many other spooky products from Sandstar Art right here.

Spooky Ghost Knife Pin

The second ghost product on this months list is this cute ghost pin.

The pin features three little ghosts floating around a knife. The ghosts also glow in the dark when the lights go out, adding another layer of spooky goodness to this pin.

One thing I especially love about this pin, is the fact the ghosts faces have bene screen printed onto the pin. I've never actually come across a screen printed pin in this way, but think it's such a clever way of adding small details.

You can pick up this pin right here.

In Memory Of My Sleep Pin

This months list does contain a handful of pins, as I came across so many awesome designs.

The second pin on todays list is one of a series of spooky pins and the pin that jumped out the most to me is the 'In Loving Memory of Sleep' design. I absolutely love it and also love the other designs available in this series, which includes a ghost, pumpkin and more.

You can pick up this pin right here.

HalloweenTown Pin

Full confession before telling you all about this next pin... I only watched Halloween town for the first time around a year ago... I had never seen HalloweenTown until Disney+ arrived in the UK, but I absolutely loved it and I absolutely love this pin too.

The pin recreates the Halloweentown book and features so much tiny detail. It's perfect for fans of the films and would make a great gift too.

You can grab this pin right here.

Trick 'r Treat Pop

Trick 'r Treat is one of my all time favourite films and I can watch it every single day of the year and never got bored of it.

When Funko revealed two new TrT Pops this year, I was pleased to see more Pops being added to the current range but at the same time disappointed that both releases were of Sam.

However this week it appears there are even more Pops on the way, with the reveal of Chuckles! Chuckles is one of the kids from the School Bus Massacre and they come with a cute Jack o'Lantern bucket too.

Very little detail is known about this Pop and unfortunately I haven't been able to find it for sale anywhere yet. As this is only one of the school bus children, i'm keeping my fingers crossed that we see more characters soon!

Boofy the Bat Pin

If you absolutely love bats, you will LOVE this next pin on this months list.

Boofy is a super cute, purple bat pin would look great on any outfit! The pin measures approximately 25mm and is made from hard enamel. Why not buy two of these pins and place them on the collar of your shirt/jacket?

You can pick up this little cutie right here.

Halloween Jack O Lantern Crossbody Bag

This year will see the end of the Blumhouse Halloween trilogy with Halloween Ends being the final film released in this series of films.

We still have plenty of time before the film comes out, so why not prepare yourself for what is sure to be a great film with this amazing Halloween Jack o'Lantern Crossbody Bag?

The bag features the famous pumpkin from the original film and is lined with a matching Jack o'Lantern and Michael Myers fabric print.

You can pick up this awesome bag right here.

Spooky Ghost Ceramic Collectible

A haunted home is a happy home and this ghost will definitely make your home happy!

This hand sculpted ghost is made from porcelain ceramic and featured a daisy print all over. This little ghoul is also available in three different sizes and you can choose from yellow or pink daisies too.

You really can't get more Summerween than a flower print ghost!

Pick up this little cutie and be sure to check out all of the other ghosts available from this store right here.

Jack O Lantern Backpack

I absolutely love the next addition to this months list. How cool is this Jack O Lantern bag?

The bag has a full Jack o Lantern design on the front, with a pumpkin and bat print on the sides too. Inside contains a pocket to hold a 15 inch laptop, with pockets also on the front. This water resistant bag is the perfect way to show off your spooky side and would look great for your little ghouls school bag too!

The Jack o Lantern design is definitely giving me The Nightmare Before Christmas vibes.

You can pick this bag up right here.

Murderous Ghost Pin

The name of this pin is what first grabbed my attention, as it's such a great name and design for a pin.

The Murderous Ghost pin features a naughty little ghost that has carved out and is now eating a poor Jack o Lantern.

I adore this pin and love how it's also giving of a vintage Halloween style. The pin measures 2 inches too, so it's a good size pin!

You can pick up this pin right here.

May is coming to an end, which also means that we're another month closer to Halloween and Hocus Pocus 2!

This month has definitely been a great month for Hocus Pocus fans, first we had Funkoween, which revealed a brand new Movie Moments Pop, along with a new card game.

If that wasn't enough, Disney FINALLY revealed the release date for Hocus Pocus 2. The sequel will release exclusively on Disney+ September 30th 2022!

And finally here's five more new Hocus Pocus products that you can look forward to this year too.

Funko Movie Moments Pop!

During Funkoween, a brand new Movie Moments Hocus Pocus Pop! was revealed.

This new Pop features the Sanderson Sisters during their 'I Put A Spell On You' scene. All three of the witches are standing on a small stage while Winifred cast's her magic and Mary and Sarah stand behind microphones.

It's great to see another new Pop in the Hocus Pocus line of products, but where are Max, Allison, Jay, Ice etc? We NEED those characters too!

This new Pop! will be released exclusively at Spirit Halloween this July in the USA and will be coming to Shop Disney in the UK and across Europe later this year.

Billy Butcherson T Shirt

Billy Butcherson is definitely one of my favourite characters from Hocus Pocus and it was a nice surprise to come across this Billy T shirt on Amazon.

This official tee is printed to order by Amazon, but is sold within the Disney Amazon Store. You can also pick this design up on multiple products including a sweater and vest.

I personally went for the vest (Summer is creeping closer) and I can happily say it's great quality and the fit is perfect, so if you are curious about the sizing, stick to your regular size.

You can pick this up right here.

Hocus Pocus Colouring Book

If you listen to mine and Ally's (@HocusPocusCollectors) Hocus Pocus podcast, you will have listened to us talking all about Hocus Pocus merchandise in Episode 2.

In the episode we discuss an upcoming Hocus Pocus colouring book that is due for release this year, well it now appears that there will be two colouring books being released this year instead.

Disney are releasing another official colouring book that contains over 80 different colouring designs. This new book is due for release September 15th 2022, so just in time for the upcoming sequel.

You can pre-order the new book right here.

Dennison House Decoration

I recently features The Cats Meow on Mays Ten Spooky Product Finds list but had to include this store on this months Hocus Pocus list too.

The Cats Meow store is filled with these wonderful wooden decorations that feature different locations around Salem and you can get your hands on the Dennison House, Thackery Binx's House, Allison's House and more!

If you place all of these together you'll have your very own mini Hocus Pocus village or buy other Salem locations to create your own mini city of Salem too.

Check out all of the wonderful decorations available right here.

Hocus Pocus Tricks and Wits Card Game

The final product on this months list is the brand new Hocus Pocus Trick and Wits card game.
