Your guests walk through the door, glance at the shelf, and freeze: something gruesome is waiting inside that creepy specimen jar. Is it severed fingers? Eyeballs? Bat brains? Even you won’t know until it arrives, because each jar is chosen at random for a gory surprise.

A mad scientist’s mystery jar

This plastic Halloween prop holds ultra-realistic severed fingers, plucked eyeballs or fresh bat brains, depending on the one you get. Its sealed-jar look gives any corner the feel of a haunted lab where the experiments went very wrong. The specimen jar is sold individually, so pick up a few if you want a whole shelf of creepy jars and the fun of comparing surprises.

Set it at the party entrance to greet arrivals, tuck it among the scares of your haunted house, or line your spooky shelves with other body parts in jars for Halloween. It’s reusable, so it will be back to creep out your guests year after year. Which one will land on your table?
