Guatemalan Skull Worry Dolls
These handmade Guatemalan Skull Worry Dolls capture the spirit of El Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), a vibrant celebration where Guatemalans honour and remember loved ones who have passed. While the skull worry dolls may seem macabre at first glance, they are powerful symbols—reminding us of those we’ve lost and representing the enduring cycle of life and death.
According to Maya belief, life and death form an unending cycle. As the body returns to the earth, the soul journeys for four to five years to Xibalba, the underworld. Eventually, the spirit returns to the world through the first breath of a newborn, beginning life anew.
Traditional stories tell that the Mayan people of Guatemala would confide their worries to these small dolls, placing them under their pillows before sleep. By morning, the dolls were believed to have carried away their troubles. For anyone seeking comfort or a gentle way to share their thoughts and worries, this worry doll provides quiet companionship and reassurance. Whether attracted by the unique design or the meaningful tradition of honouring ancestors, this Guatemalan doll makes a thoughtful and heartfelt companion.
Each Skull Worry Doll comes on a display card and is randomly selected.

Willow Charcoal Sticks
Price range: $4.95 through $19.95Natural charcoal made from twigs is one of the oldest drawing materials in history. Symbolically, charcoal is known for its ability to absorb and dispel negative energies, making it valuable in purification, cleansing, and protective magickal practices. The willow tree, from which this charcoal is derived, is strongly associated with folk magick and is often linked to themes of the moon, water, intuition, healing, and grief. Using willow charcoal specifically—rather than other types of charcoal—can enhance the energies in a spell or ritual, particularly those related to intuition or emotional healing. When practitioners use willow charcoal sticks, they can harness the willow's inherent magickal properties. Incorporate Willow Charcoal Sticks into your magickal practice by using them to draw temporary sigils, runes, or pentagrams on surfaces like an altar, the ground, parchment paper, or in your Book of Shadows during rituals or spellcasting. They can also be used to mark boundaries for a protective circle. Being a natural product made from wood, these sticks can represent the Earth element on an altar. Handmade exclusively for Gypsy Red Corpse, these Willow Charcoal Sticks were harvested on a full Moon, then whittled and left to dry naturally. Then, they were pit-fired on a Full Moon to enhance their magickal properties. Please choose carefully from the three options below regarding quantities and grades: vials containing either 1, 3, or 9 Willow Charcoal Sticks. 1 Stick @ 6-7mm x 100mm length $4.95, 3 Sticks @ 4-5mm x 100mm length $11.95, and 9 Sticks @ 2-4mm x 100mm length $19.95.

Howlite Owl Beads
$1.65Owls are widely regarded as symbols of wisdom, intuition, and transformation. Their nocturnal habits and extraordinary vision have led many to see them as messengers from the spirit world, able to perceive what is hidden and see through darkness and deception to uncover truths. While not a standard ritual tool like an athame or chalice, owl beads may serve as powerful conduits for practitioners who identify the owl as their totem or spirit guide. Wearing or holding these beads acts as a tangible link to the animal's energy. As altar adornments, owl-themed artefacts are frequently placed to honour lunar power and the element of Air, especially during Samhain when the "veil" between worlds is thinnest. Crafted into jewellery, they become personal talismans, amplifying intuition, providing protection as night guardians, and offering wisdom during pivotal life transitions. Carved from Howlite gemstone and measuring 3cm in height, 2cm in width, and 0.4cm in depth, these owl beads are available in eight distinct colours and are the perfect companion for your practitioner's needs. Sold individually, please select your preferred colour from the options below. COLOURS: Blue – Green – Orange – Pink – Purple – Red – White – Yellow
