In the immortal words of Marnie Piper, “Halloween is cool.” It’s so cool, in fact, that Disney has dropped a whole heaping ton of new Disney Halloween merch for 2023.
We’ve rounded up the best home decor products from the collection (which sadly doesn’t actually include any Halloweentown merch) to help you transform your house into the Haunted Mansion.
From Mickey Mouse-shaped candy bowls to Hocus Pocus-themed mugs, we’ve got the spooky stuff you’ve been missing in your life. Oh good, the neighborhood ghost is back!
Here’s your guide to decorating for a swinging wake that even the grimmest of grim-grinning ghosts would want to attend. Or at the very least, us, for sure.
22 Bone-chillingly Cool Disney Halloween Merch for 2023
1. Mickey Mouse Jack-o’-Lantern Halloween Candy Bowl, $39.99
There’s something a little unsettling about this giant-mouthed candy bowl. It’s a strange and unnerving horror movie trope for characters to have massive, supernatural-sized mouths to freak out the audience.
We think we just figured out why the show “Big Mouth” gives us the heebie-jeebies. Or maybe it’s just the writing.

2. Starbucks Halloween Tumbler, $49.99
If you love Disney and Starbucks and Halloween, you’re in luck as they’ve collaborated to release this ombre studded tumbler. Which we will be immediately filling with apple cider or Dole Whip. Not apple cider and Dole Whip. We learned our lesson there.

3. Mickey and Minnie Mouse Halloween Countdown Calendar, $54.99
While you could always just count down to the big spooky night with Freeform’s 31 Nights of Halloween, this countdown calendar makes it even easier.
You can enjoy the ambience of this adorably spooktacular figure while you wonder why Twitches never gets the respect it deserves. Feel free to hang out on our soap box for a minute. It didn’t get played once last year, but they played Shrek Forever After six times, and we were positively twitching with anger.

4. Minnie Mouse Halloween Light-Up Vampire Candle Figure, $34.99
In this candle figure Minnie is front and center in her vampire best. It’s time for her to be more in the spotlight. Perhaps a break-up is in order, à la Barbie and Ken (uhh… spoiler alert?).

5. Mickey Mouse Halloween Pumpkin Light-Up Treat Bucket, $24.99
We love this Mickey Mouse pumpkin treat bucket, but we do want to know who made the design choice to put flames in Mickey’s eyes. Are they trying to say he wants to watch the world burn?
In witch (Halloween pun intended) case, we already knew that, considering how much he’s charging at Disneyland these days.

6. Mickey Mouse and Friends Halloween Light-Up Decoration, $44.99
It’s fitting that Donald is the most frightening one of the bunch on this Mickey and friends light-up decoration. One word, Donald: pants.
Get it here
7. Hocus Pocus Color Changing Mug With Spoon, $24.99
This color-changing mug will have you believing in all kinds of hocus pocus. At the very least, it’ll remind you of the miraculous power of coffee. Caffeine is some of the greatest witchcraft we know.
Get it here
8. The Nightmare Before Christmas Light-Up Countdown Clock Calendar, $69.99
Have you ever watched The Nightmare Before Christmas and thought, “I want to live there!” Of course you haven’t, because everything is freaking terrifying.
But if you want to bring a piece of Halloween Town home, you can start with this countdown clock from the movie. Halloween Town characters (thankfully) not included. Unless…

9. Doom Buggy Light-Up Living Magic Sketchbook Ornament, $24.99
The grim, grinning ghosts from the Haunted Mansion have come out to socialize, and they made this special Doom Buggy ornament just for you.
Oh no, it’s not a trick just to get you to take the Hitchhiking Ghosts home with you. They moved in long ago. Rent is so expensive these days.
Get it here
10. The Haunted Mansion Doormat, $39.99
Install a sensor on this Haunted Mansion doormat so you’ll know when someone’s at the door. Then, answer it before they knock and tell them you knew they were there because the ghosts sensed your sympathetic vibrations.
If they’re a Disney fan, they’ll get a kick out of it. If they’re not a Disney fan, your UPS person will start leaving packages at the bottom of the stairs.
Get it here
11. The Nightmare Before Christmas Jack-o’-Lantern Votive Candle Holder, $24.99
We’d argue that the jack-o’-lantern from Halloweentown is quite a bit friendlier, but this Nightmare Before Christmas jack-o’-lantern is better if you’re trying to up the creepy factor. Maybe bringing it to work was a bad idea.
Get it here
12. The Skeleton Dance Figural Incense Holder, $44.99
What do skeletons smell like? It’s an answer we’re better off not knowing, just like you don’t want to know how many people dump Grandma’s cremains in the Haunted Mansion. Hint: it’s a lot, and it’ll get you a lifetime ban. But Granny will get a kick out of it.
Thankfully, there are no real skeletons to sniff in this “Skeleton Dance” incense holder. Unless skeletons just smell like incense. Huh.

13. The Nightmare Before Christmas Mug With Spoon, $19.99
Nothing like a mug of Nightshade to help you sleep like… well, the dead. Drink up from this Nightmare Before Christmas mug, complete with a holey spoon.
Holey, not holy. The latter is just any spoon that’s touched Pedro Pascal’s lips.
Get it here
14. Billy Butcherson Water Bottle, $34.99
We re-watch Hocus Pocus every year, and not once have we paused the film wishing we could drink from Billy Butcherson’s zombie head. But for those of you who clearly get something we don’t, there’s this Billy Butcherson water bottle.
Get it here
15. The Nightmare Before Christmas Diffuser, $59.99
Diffusing the tension between Jack Skellington and Sandy Claus? That’s complicated. But diffusing the smell of the incense from the Halloween cake you burned? That’s easy with this Nightmare Before Christmas diffuser.
Get it here
16. The Nightmare Before Christmas Light-Up Wreath, $59.99
Ah, the age old question: Is The Nightmare Before Christmas a Halloween or Christmas movie? Plot twist! Both are wrong — it’s a Thanksgiving movie.
But if you want to hold tightly to the belief that it’s a Christmas movie, put this light-up wreath up this Halloween and leave it up for the whole jolly holiday season. Join us in the comments to debate about Die Hard.

17. Behemoth Nutcracker, $64.99
We were today years old when we learned that the guy with the ax in his head in The Nightmare Before Christmas has a name. And apparently, it’s “Behemoth.”
Why he gets a name when the clown with the tear-away face is literally just called “Clown With Tear-Away Face” is beyond us. But we can’t deny that Behemoth makes for one great nutcracker.

18. Ghost Host Sketchbook Ornament, $24.99
Hell hath no fury like a Disney fan dedicated to canon. If you want a more recent example, check out the pushback from fans about Disney adding the Hatbox Ghost before Madame Leota’s scene in the Magic Kingdom’s Haunted Mansion.
And last year, when this ornament debuted, fans were mightily upset that Disney had referred to this character as “Master Gracey” when he’s actually the Ghost Host. So this year, the ornament goes by its proper name. The things you learn when you stay up until three a.m. scrolling on TikTok.

19. The Bride Light-Up Living Magic Sketchbook Ornament, $24.99
Here comes the bride, hatchet held up high. Constance Hatchaway looks lovely in this light-up ornament. All she’s missing is a groom to behead. Maybe keep your “Just Married” ornaments away from this one.
Get it here
20. The Hatbox Ghost Light-Up Living Magic Sketchbook Ornament, $24.99
The Hatbox Ghost is having quite a moment. He’s one of the most famous Disney Parks characters, as he was in all the promotional material for the OG Disneyland Haunted Mansion ride. But he either never materialized or was around for only a short, undocumented time.
These days, he can be seen in the Disneyland Haunted Mansion ride and will soon make his controversial debut at Magic Kingdom. Plus, you can see him in the new Haunted Mansion movie. Commemorate Hattie’s big year with his very own light-up ornament.

21. The Haunted Mansion Porcelain Tray, $19.99
Madame Leota serves you up to the ghosts on a silver platter, so it’s fitting she’s the star of this porcelain serving tray. All of your guests will want to hurry back to dinner at your place. And not just because they left their scarf there. But, mostly.

22. Hitchhiking Ghosts Sketchbook Ornament, $24.99
Always wanted the Hitchhiking Ghosts to follow you home? Now they can with this Hitchhiking Ghosts ornament. Honestly, these three are probably safer than any other hitchhiker you’ll pick up. Us included. We will eat all your snacks.
