upside down
We’re heading to the dark side, baby. Inspired by Hawkins Woods, this candle’s unmistakable design fits an upside-down aesthetic, with scents of mossy stone, smoky birch, and eerie mist.
Demon King
Don’t let the fearsome head unfolding like a flower to reveal petals studded with sharp teeth scare you away from this scent – it features notes of black orchid petals, spicy cedar and dark patchouli.
Eddie’s leather jacket
Eddie! *cry* With notes of black leather, soft musk, and smoky suede, this scent answers the question, “What does Eddie Munson smell like?” A wrap featuring his guitar and the texture of his signature leather jacket completes the tribute.

Unfortunately for the Hawkinsians, it’s also the site of a secret Russian project designed to create a portal to another dimension and pry open the town’s already damaged fabric of reality.

Argyle Pineapple Pizza
