'Tis the Season to Be Spooky': The Collection's First Retro Design
Every design in the Halloween collection so far has stuck to a fairly bold, graphic look. “’Tis the Season to Be Spooky” changes that with a warm, retro palette and a pumpkin-and-skeleton pairing that feels pulled from a decades-old holiday card.
Borrowing from a different holiday’s phrase
The pun here comes from Christmas, not Halloween — “’tis the season to be jolly” becomes “’tis the season to be spooky,” repurposing a familiar holiday phrase for October instead of December. It’s a small twist that gives the design a different kind of humor than the rest of the collection.
The collection’s first retro treatment
Where Frankenstein Monster Face and Boo Classic Ghost Outline both go for a more classic, timeless look, this is the first design to lean specifically into a warm, vintage color palette — see Introducing the Halloween Collection for how it fits with the rest.
Who it’s for
Fans of retro and vintage-style graphic design, and anyone who wants a Halloween shirt that feels a little warmer and cozier than the collection’s bolder, more graphic-forward pieces.
