October 7th, 2014 — Food, Halloween
Halloween is at the end of the month and Hoxton Street Monster Supplies is a great new resource for getting your little monsters in the spooky spirit. Established in 1818, though the exact details of why, and by whom, have tragically been lost to history. Priding themselves on being London’s, and quite possibly the world’s, only purveyor of quality goods for monsters of every kind. Many of their customers have been coming to them for centuries. Indeed, some have been coming for considerably longer. Whether you’re a Vampire, Werewolf, Sasquatch or some Thing else entirely, Hoxton Street has everything you need.
For The British WIFE most of their goods are available to buy online at Monstersupplies.org or to shop the full range, do drop by their storefront – their staff are generally quite polite. However for THE WIFE™ stateside you can get their Olde Fashioned Brain Jam and Thickets Human Snot, $11.29 each and Cubed Earwax, $10.00 all available at Firebox.com BONUS: 100% of the profits from Hoxton Street Monster Supplies supports the work of the Ministry of Stories, a children’s creative writing charity set up by the writer Nick Hornby. The charity was set up to help local children discover the joys and value of writing. -Taryn Cox for THE WIFE
