    Halloween returns! Obviously, we have one every year. That's how Halloween works. But Poundland's bounty has been particularly special this year - We've got cobwebs, creepy doll heads, Ouija - sorry, spirit boards, weird skeletons, bleeding candles and even a sound effects box from elsewhere. It's a spooky sensation! It's a creepy cavalcade! It's a load of stuff which cost less than £15 combined! Hooray!

      Just sit her down and explain very carefully that magic cannot be made in a factory. Not even satan's evil devil magic. And cardboard/particle board is a terrible, TERRIBLE conductor of magic because of how artificial and processed it is.
      A real spirit channel requires a blood sacrifice, it requires effort, it requires the person doing it give a shit about what they are making. You can't mass produce that shit and put in the required care, effort, or detail. Magic can't just be done with cheap, mass produced, heavily artificial, highly processed nonsense made of shit materials.

You keep every prize that falls out during your turn, and there's a big cluster in the center.

    Hearing Ashens say the words "thick boy planchette" has officially ruined my morning.

      Starlord sounded a lot like the Haunted Mansion stretching room scream.

    The odour of silly string is so embedded in my memory of terrible social events, I could smell it as soon as you started spraying it.

      Likewise! The last time I remember actually spraying any was at my sister's 18th.. she's now in her 40's! That's how long that smell stays with you 😂
