I Think She Killed Skipper!: Barbie Launches Terrifying New Doll Series With 'Haunted Beauty Ghost Barbie'
Okay, so "terrifying" might have been a giant overstatement. MY BAD. I can't help it if I have a flair for the dramatic. *flourishing cape* "Stop that." Not until you acknowledge I'm naked underneath and you saw the goods. This is Haunted Beauty Ghost Barbie, the first in Mattel's new Haunted Beauty line. Wow -- so scary, guys.

I say we petition for the next doll to be possessed and have some wind-up head spinning action. Now that -- that's something I'd buy my little sister for her birthday.
Hit the jump for some closeups and a worthwhile shot of 'Empress of the Aliens Barbie' because that's a real thing too.
Thanks to roshan, who agrees the best thing about buying your little sister Barbies is being able to steal the heads off them and use them as collateral in negotiations about not telling mom that you snuck out after bedtime.

This is the $150 Dark Knight Batman hoodie from Marc Ecko. It looks... "Kinda crappy." You said it, not me. It reminds me of what a cheap knockoff of a real Batman hoodie might look like. Yeah, this is no joke. You're looking at the closest thing to taking on the role of Go... / Continue →
