The art used on this poster (and subsequent packaging) is simply stunning. This would not fare well to one’s leg if put into a front pocket.Ī rolled scroll of incantations protected inside this tube perhaps? Stunning.Įven better, a full sized movie poster of the documentary Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched: A History of Folk Horror. Next up is a completely impractical keychain modeled from The Witchhhammer. This pendant was heavy and quite large.Īnd The Owl Service Melamine Plate! A bonafide plate! It’s a wee bit different than the advert (which shows a bumpy circumference while this one is a pure circle). This image doesn’t do the pendant justice at just how big it was.Ĭarefully unwrapping it one comes across a replica of the pendant from Alison’s Birthday. There was a wrapped packet that felt incredibly heavy. The one on the left with the sickle makes me think of the song “The Sickle and the Setting Sun” by Awen. The top right sticker is a Hand of Glory (as seen in The Wicker Man). It’s a shame that special editions like these only come with one set of stickers as folks need at least two: one set to keep pristine and the other to put on things. Next up are a set of three stickers with some fantastic art. A thick book, this tome will make for great reading later. The first object pulled forth from the parcel was a grimoire entitled Of Mud & Flame. This is good for shipping, but it will be a nightmare to get them all back in the box and be able to close the lid. When opened the contents are covered a healthy amount of packing peanuts. Of course, my kitty familiars are intrigued by the parcel and what treasure lie within. The exterior was printed with the All The Haunts Be Ours artwork in gold. Wide and unwieldy, but at least not super heavy. The parcel that The Witches’ Bundle came in was huge. What follows is an unboxing of The Witches’ Bundle edition of A ll the Haunts Be Ours interspersed with interview segments with Howard David Ingham, a folk horror expert that has material in the release. Original advert for The Witches’ Bundle version Of course, for a few pennies more, one could have ordered The Witches’ Bundle of the release which contains a treasure trove of additional goodies. The standard edition of this boxset houses fifteen discs along with a book and a soundtrack. Perhaps their most ambitious release yet, Severin released a boxset of folk horror films called All the Haunts Be Ours: A Compendium of Folk Horror.
