2. The Nightmare Before Christmas Serving Bowl

Cheap and cheerful, this serving bowl would be a delight for fans of the Disney classic (i.e pretty much all goths in existence)

3. Skull Salt and Pepper Shakers

I own this pair! They really add a certain Gothic classiness to our dining table. Seems only natural to put the salt in the white one, the pepper in the black one.
