Ashens Halloween Special 2015

Halloween again innit and this year I've got this eye pleasing array of LED pumpkin lights from Poundland which we can use for set decoration and maximum spooky effect let's turn them on they're on now and we can add a certain little extra something spooky with this amazing party popper thing from fright night which is Poundland Halloween range I seem to remember having something like this before it didn't even have like confetti shaped like spiders with just a normal party popper but let's see how it goes oh good it's all stuck up in the air hang on let's get on with it then well at least it's not bright colors or something actually it looks like somebody got a load of ash up their nose and then sneezed across the sofa lovely anyway let's start looking at some exciting Halloween treats we've got from the pound lands of the world and we start off with fright night Halloween characters it's fake Lego and I'll tell you what it's pretty fricking and this is something is usually called block Tech it's a very very popular range of cheapy Lego power landed on various four packs of characters but this to my knowledge is the first time they've done a Halloween set from left to right we have demented slasher movie fan evil television presenter reject from Sons of Anarchy and the guy you really don't want to have to queue up for at customer service now they act now there are actual names zombie man zombie girl skeleton and vampire yep put a lot of thought into that dingy lads right let's open him up and see what they're actually like should have actually thought this beforehand and got rid of the sellotape but I didn't I don't have a knife or anything on the there we are we will rend it with strengths yeah these are exactly as we see frequently the arms are a bit sort of Daffy and the ends fall off the haircuts are all a bit terrible and look like crash hats something all kind of make them look like a 90s band the legs are disturbingly hollow from the back and they've got weird little dimples on the knees but they held together all right away for 25 P each you can't really complain until you see the faces they're frankly a little bit shite yeah not entirely convinced by the zombie setup on this one to say the least though I do quite like the look skeleton something I please you know that it's like he's got a spooky ski mask on or something also it gets massive massive bonus points for having a skull actually molded onto the Hat you don't normally get attention to detail like that on crappy um paranoid figures so well done all concerned there we are I'm sure nothing will top that throughout this in fact looking at what's coming next it probably won't boy careful where you stick that bleeding knife bleeding knife with blood Halloween I think this one will pound world can't remember now but I do remember being extremely disappointed the whole point of a bleeding knife is usually it has like a plastic sheath on it in this or blood that goes up and down it this isn't a bleeding knife at all it's literally just a cheap plastic knife with some fake blood to pour on it this is cheating bleeding knife indeed I mean come on guys you can do better than this it was this construct your own Halloween prop because you can't be asked Deary me let's look at something far more high quality to get back into the swing it is a spooky dead bride woman thing I think this actually comes from last year's Poundland stuff for a member actually somebody gave me this MCM thank you if that's true and it was you and this is quite nicely done I mean for a pound anyway it looks sort of unpleasant and scary and mouldy and it looks like an festering in the ground a bit although she's nice to look after a hair because hey she's worth it and yeah a big rose in the hand that's maybe a little bit too big but it works whoa oh I was jilted at the altar 4,000 years ago and yet have managed to keep my dress pleasingly white with drift there was something was drift even though washing powder I can remember now it's probably not been sold for 400 years hey there we are that sort of fits in with when she was buried and always well anyway this year 99p stores decided to have a go at making something similar wait for it turns out that that pound and that 99p do make quite a difference that one penny between them apparently houses all of the quality I mean just look at it it's like the cheapest scale they could find they just got somebody to spit caramel in its face it supposedly sort of the same thing even the Rose isn't as good the wig is kind of go bald and weird and got loads of visible glue the veils crap the little omen collar thing that's about the same actually we'll give it that and the cloth is very very similar that's made out of but look at the bloody skull honestly pound world you've let the side down god it just looks like did you know this looks like this is the absolute worst thing that happened in Willy Wonka's chocolate factory that they covered up in the movie just some child with his face melted off with caramel IR by their help you oh it's very sweet like right enough of this comedic nonsense time for some true horror with a mask oh yeah terrifying Halloween pirate's mask this was sent to me from a country other than this one I believe think it came from America I'm not sure Dollarama three dollars I thought the whole point of Dollarama was everything goes $1 well that proves what I know anyway welcome to Halloween pirate's mask which is pretty terrifying on many levels I tell you what it is that does it for me actually looks like somebody's skinned a Pirates face it doesn't kind of look like a mask it just looks like a severed face like when the Joker peeled zone went off in the bloody new 52 comics well Blackbeard did the same because apparently he's easily impressed by such things I wonder what this looks like on well that was a mistake that won't fade from memory quickly anyway time to look at tombstone corners now this is something else sent in I think again this is America I'm not entirely sure could be Canadian actually because you've got it in French on there hey maybe it's French no no USA Greenbrier International and Chesapeake oh yes we've heard of these before Halloween figurines look everyone it's a little spooky gargoyle thing fair enough and then you've got like this toothed monster rotting in an electric chair or something not exactly high quality paint on the teeth there and then you've got sort of spooky bride holding a weird ice cream scoop that may be supposed to be a mirror not entirely sure what they did loads of these anyway I'm now going to show you my six favorites from the one sent in first up we have Mad Professor woman holding up I think that's the stuff they used to eat in early episodes of The Simpsons when they sat down the dinner table just to sort of purple mush all the legs are stuck together crappy seventies glasses and absolutely terrible all around but don't worry it gets better with the moaner doesn't it gets much much worse with the male mad scientist you've got some crazy stuff coming off his arm with it mold it properly appears to be holding up to Grey's sax I dread to think what they are probably given scrotums or something and the face kind of has ruptured itself this is why they give you dental braces if not that happens to you and your whole face erupts also his glasses well I can work out what's going on with those but we saved the best for last in this little set with good old Igor here he is holding the skull of a small chimp while simultaneously having the most frightening smile ever to have existed also his hunches disturbingly bulbous I think it might just be inflatable he's putting it on in order to fit type let's just get that face in there yeah there we are happy Halloween everybody hey don't forget to floss also his helmet is rubbish looks like he made it have an old crock pots or something but fear not the witch will come in at least I think it's supposed to be a witch I can't really tell seems to be holding is it supposed to be a ladle a bugle a chicken leg or something I've got no idea on the it's not I was going to say it's not showing very well in the camera you can't see with the naked eye either it's just like this green and black mists I think rather than a witch it may just be a demented maid also her skin is be leaking all the way down the front which is often a problem then we've got zombie businessman I've got no idea the face is quite spooky on that one so it does actually earn some points but than that yeah it's load of old crap but what really worries me about this one is the brown stuff that seems to have run down his trouser leg and pulled on the floor that's right it's Pasha zombie with diarrhea coming soon to Netflix and finally werewolf but really confused and frightened werewolf Oh is he supposedly being beaten by the town's folk is he just really scared has he accidentally walked into a cinema showing of the keith lemon film and his terrifies gonna see a second of it I've got no oh hang on he's on his knees I think is he looks like sunk into the floor ah he's on his knees is probably gold celebration isn't it there we are he's just scored in the final minute whoo FIFA corruption or whatever the hell's going on in football these days anyway let's just have that face close up just for your new wallpaper at home right what's next how about something to decorate the old sofa with is Gaelic bidding you look a bit plain isn't it how about some lovely Halloween window stickers from good old pound world can be used on any clean dry surface well that's the sofa then now here's what the window stickers are weird bloody footprints so you can make it look like a bleeding zombie has walked up your windows or something which I don't think is really something they'll confuse people however what they actually confuse the hell out of me is that you've got the dirty footprint thing there and then what the hell is this in that case it's like got load of flesh on it or something how they're supposed to have flayed the sole of somebody's foot and stuck it on here but is it just that different from I just don't understand what they were thinking on this at all right self cling static window stick is removable and reusable oh great yeah see me using these all and these aren't good sticks are so fat or actually they're gonna be some sort of plastic thing but we'll give it a go come on and here comes and we go oh there we are you two can have weird small footprints stuck all over Oh God has actually stuck my goodness was not expecting that Wow the true horror of the world is revealed well that's absolutely beautiful so we stick the other type of foot thing on there as well I really don't know who designs these things or what an earth is going through their head at the time probably quiet desperation 'z they've got three minutes to actually design something to be so there we are oh god it's clear is this supposed on a white background that's just looking weird now I don't know what's going on with that whatsoever I'm immensely confused and my hatred glands have been kicked in as a result anyway it's about this time on Halloween that I like to perform a bank robbery of some type but fortunately pound Wells knitted mask has provided me with an element of anonymity I'm trying to work it what's going on here right you've got the obvious Frankenstein thing on the top and then these are the ice that supposed to be the mouth and like a nose for something coming out or is this also cuz you know your actual nose is going to be about here on your mouth it's going to be here so what is that is that supposed to be along I am immensely confused by it maybe it'll make much more sense when I put it on it did not make more sense when I put it on and then that thing fell off anyway time for some more Halloween Lego because apparently Lego and Halloween is the new thing on the block it's zombie car and tombstone also a popular French detective series he zombie Cara she's tombstone together they throw the book out of the window as they chase down the criminals with very little regard for the law that's supposed to uphold been on a vampire zombie car and tombstone six 12 years 50 blocks or that probably wouldn't be part of theme tune but anyway how the is that a zombie car what it's like a car with eyes and that's a zombie car I'm really not understanding this at all also bizarrely we've got the tombstone with fire coming out of the front tracks it looks like a cross between a tombstone a petrol pump and a Teletubby irie don't understand it at all does the back of the box hold any secrets nope the back of the box just kind of shows them on the surface of the Moon which has become a graveyard and there's a wolf in the background or something quality blocks compatible with other leading brands such as poo block block 70 big block Barry and all your favours right and his instructions he's all 50 bricks er don't have to build it anti jumpy cat Oh Bing and as if by magic some disappointing Lego appeared now I'm gonna be honest with you I can't really fault this for app and the pieces went together well the instructions were good and it's all held together nice - you've got a few bits of errant sprue which might pierce your children's fingers but other than that zombie car is go I feel we should move the camera down a bit to give full zombie car benefit sort of Lufkin or something they're lovely look forward to cleaning that up later go on then can evil TV presenter woman sit on the back of it or something I does she stand here I don't really understand what no is just that I'm gonna be honest I don't think this is really designed to go with the figures but she'll stand on it anyway why is the tombstone so much bigger than the car what is a zombie car why is there fire come at the tombstone why is there seem to be a screen in the tomb sir this is conceptually a very very bizarre set but the little pieces fit together world is only a quid so what can we complain about well here's something we can complain about the next item because tragically it's time for some food oh goody right apparently in America candy corn is a thing and it's like quite a popular thing to give out to trick-or-treaters at Halloween unfortunately we have this seasonal crispy treat from peddlers pantry thanks peddler or was that your job is that your name does anybody care how old is this thing for God's sake seasonal crispy treat could you be any more generic best before 12 the second 2015 brilliant and it's 9 months out or is it hang on that's probably an American date which would mean 2nd of December it's actually in date it just looks monstrous so it's kind of looking we're supposed to look like candy corn but is in fact rice krispies with goo on with a load of icing on top and then some great stuff and then some horrible baubles and then I write buy into this and then just regret the fact I've ever gone and we'll just smell what's or a hair in it it smells of Oh sort of mank with a sweet after - oh god the awful isn't it right ah-ah-ah horrible oh my even is that Oh Deary me we gets better as it goes on actually yeah it's quite bland after a while it is just awful it just tastes a sort of cheap sugar and obviously rice krispies and you know more sugar and it's there's something slightly off to it that I can't put my finger on maybe it's just all the chemicals used to preserve it but I'll tell you what if you see one of those when you're out trick-or-treating stop trick-or-treating immediately and move to a country that doesn't celebrate Halloween oh my goodness right let's end up with something of true beauty I present to you moving these out of the way so we've got some room for it Fright Night Lights projector projects spooky images whoo look at your student debt oh yes don't forget three Triple A batteries no I didn't forget them already put in this is a very unimpressive device that may come in a cardboard box but it's just a tube of shite it has two buttons led and start no star led literally turns on an LED enabled us to see a witch has had a ghost happy Halloween a speed a weird cat gasps has exploded another witch's hat or a whole London or there's supposed to be an evil cat a bat happy Halloween a jack-o'-lantern thing and another bat marvelous Aurel - well that one's the LED that just turns a light on them that one flashes multicolored lights and you can't have them both on once basically these star overrules the LED used to advise for any mathematicians out there right let's turn the lights off and see what joy we have just open up a bit so we can see the lights and the background as well for that full spooky Halloween affective it we'll just cut to errol well that's worked better than I thought it would cue the spooky music and oh my goodness look at the ceiling you subscribe for more it's like all the demons of Hell have risen up to terrify oh who we killing its load of bloody plastic pumpkin heads anyway let us begin by creating an even more horrifying atmosphere using some of these Fright Night 15 party poppers I have a feeling we've sort of used these before or very similar product and actually they were just normal party poppers that they put a sort of Halloween sticker on and they didn't even have sort of spider shaped confetti or anything but hey let's hope they're better this year right moving swiftly on

Fun fact: Dollarama is a Canadian store, not an American one.
Additional fun fact: I once saw a Dollarama selling things that cost $15+

/u/StuartAshen Just so you know, Dollarama is a Canadian chain of dollar stores. It is quite common for things to be more than a dollar as well for some strange reason. You'd be hard pressed to find something that was only a dollar really...

I'm glad I had my anger glands removed as a child

Prepackaged rice crispy treats always have too little marshmallow.

The witch was clearly holding a smoking pipe.
