Big Lots Is Selling a Stoneware Ghost-Shaped Halloween Candy Bowl for $5, and It's Hauntingly Cute

With less than a month of summer remaining, retailers everywhere have been gearing up for the official start of spooky season. It’s a magical time of year when everything is laced in cobwebs, creepy crawlies lurk behind every corner and Jack Skellington awakens from his year-long slumber to haunt our screens on an infinite loop until the new year. Everyone from Target to Five Below has swapped out their typical sunshine-y summer fare with frightening decor and Halloween staples like trick-or-treat pails and mountains of sticky sweet candy. But before we get to the fun part, we’ve got some decorating to do first.

Whether you’re stringing up lights and putting on a pyrotechnic display that would make a Hollywood VFX artist jealous, or you prefer to carve a couple of pumpkins and strategically place a broomsticks around, there are so many ways to decorate for the over-the-top holiday. Best of all, you can go all out and still stick to a budget by carefully choosing where to shop. And if your preferred spot is Big Lots , you might be in for a cutesy little treat.

The off-the-beaten-path retailer is a discount hunter’s paradise, and they’ve got a frighteningly good deal on a Figural Ghost Shaped Candy Bowl we need on our Halloween candy table. This adorable 12-ounce ghost-shaped bowl features an eek-inducing ghosty in mid-boo perfectly made to hold candy, trinkets and even potpourri. In addition to its ghastly visage, this stoneware candy bowl is dishwasher safe, making it easy to clean if things get a bit sticky. If you haven’t jumped out of your skin yet, this Casper-adjacent dish will only set you back a meager $4.99, so you might want to grab a few to disperse throughout your haunted house setup.

Now that we’ve got decor out of the way, the next (and possibly most important) line item is all the sweet, sweet candy. Word on the street is you might even find delicious Twizzler Ghosts hiding out at Walmart . Now that’s what we call meta. \
