Take Out Your Frustrations On These Horror Icon Pinatas

Published

Who’s ready to have the coolest birthday party ever?

When I was a kid, all I wanted was to grow up. I couldn’t wait to have my own place, my own money, and most importantly, I couldn’t wait to have the freedom to order pizza delivery whenever the hell I wanted to. But now that I am grown up (at least that’s what people tell me…), all I really want is to be a kid again. Because in hindsight, being a kid was pretty damn awesome.

Remember pinatas, for example? Those goofy, shitty-looking decorations that you’d beat up with a wiffle ball bat, hopeful that you’d swing hard enough to make candy pour out all over the ground? Now those were the days, my friends. And if you’re looking to get back in touch with the sheer joy of beating up your favorite pop culture icons, we’ve got just the thing for you.

Introducing HORROR ICON PINATAS!

The handiwork of Etsy seller HangMeOfficial, these pinatas are ready for stuffing with your favorite candy, and they depict iconic heroes and villains like Ash Williams, Leatherface, Pennywise, Chucky, and Freddy Krueger. There’s even a clever one of a near-death Glenn from “The Walking Dead,” which comes with your own version of Lucille to beat him with. Now that’s just sick!

We love these. Check ’em out below.

AreYouWatching.com: ‘The Watchers’ Interactive Website Is Full of Creepy Easter Eggs

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
