Disney Doorable Park Moments - Haunted Mansion

One of the gifts Mrs Dex got for my birthday was this Disney Doorable Park Moments diorama. Like most things Doorable, these are blind packed and you can get one of three sets: Small World, Jungle Cruise or Haunted Mansion.

 

 I hadn't heard of this series before and found out it is exclusive to the parks and ShopDisney. From what I can tell, it looks like you have the same odds to get any of the sets. In retail items like this, there are usually rarities involved.

 

 I was thrilled to see that I got the Haunted Mansion's Hitchhiking Ghosts! There is a clear plastic case that normally goes over the display which lets you easily stack them up but for photo purposes, it was much easier to shoot without it getting in the way.

 

 The reverse of the backdrop pays homage to one of the original attraction posters.

 

 And of course, you can't have ghosts without glow in the dark features!

 

 

Looks like they dropped a new album!

Spidey D takes over Salem Dunkin!

It's fair to say Salem is like a circus in October. 

The downtown Dunkin took that to heart this year!

  

This same store got taken over by Spidey D (Dunkin's Spider Donut mascot) last year but it was nowhere near this level! The line last year was just as long so I didn't go in but this time we stuck it out because I really wanted to see the inside.

 

Below where it says Step Rite Up is one of those big spinning wheels where someone gets strapped in and spun around while a performer throws sharp objects at them. This one doesn't move but it does have handholds to pose for a photo op.

 

 Here's the other side of the building. To the right is normally a chain link fence where the dumpsters are hidden away.

 

 But even that area got a make over with a faux fence and midway style posters.

The line actually moved fairly quick but I wouldn't recommend going inside if you're any kind of claustrophobic!

Spooky Cat Press Vintage Monster Mask Mini Cards

 If you're a lover of Halloween and somehow haven't discovered Spooky Cat Press yet, hold on to your wallet! They had a sale recently and I couldn't resist picking up these mini monster cards.

 

 I'm a sucker for anything with classic Halloween costume vibes so I had to snag these monster mask cards.

 

 There's 12 cards in the set, each with a different image. They don't open like traditional greeting cards but are double sided. The cards are 2"x3" and I would absolutely collect a trading card series like this if they decided to make more. Below the names is a fun little tagline and boxes where you can check Trick or Treat. The backs are all identical allowing you to select the type of Halloween wishes you want to bestow.

 

 The set also comes with 12 mini envelopes to put the cards in and one of four mystery stickers that aren't part of the card set. I was really hoping to get Mr. Gilly (the Creature) but the Bride is pretty cool too.

 

If you want to pick up a set, or just browse some great Halloween/horror merch, head over to Spooky Cat Press today!
