In anticipation of this year’s spooky season, Bath & Body Works has unveiled their Halloween collection which could only be described as to die for.

The retail store chain’s fall collection features a wide variety of cursed products, including vampire blood hand soap, enchanted body cream, and candy corn lip gloss. The most popular item is the Witch Hand Pedestal, which is a candle holder that looks like a sorceress’ severed hand.

“With this frightful holder, the perfect Halloween ambiance is always within reach,” the product description reads.

The item costs $49.95, which is a pretty ok price, considering detached witch limbs are rare these days. What’s scary is that, just like last year, stocks are running low early on, with the Bath & Body Works online store already sold out.

You could try checking a store nearest you for product availability, but if that’s also no good, Bath & Body Works has other candle holders too. There’s a black cat, a water globe resembling a skull, another water globe that contains an eyeball, a haunted house, and a raven that can play an eerie song.

For those really bent on obtaining a witch’s hand, there are similar enchantress-themed choices. For example, a hand soap holder, another hand soap holder but it cackles for 20 seconds to let you know you’ve washed the blood off of your hands properly, and a nightlight depicting the witch holding an evil apple.

An in-demand decoration from Bath & Body Works is stirring controversy online. The specialty retailer has offered a "witch hand pedestal" single wick candle holder for the fall season. The product was introduced on July 26, as part of the company's 2021 Halloween collection, which also includes candle holders featuring a skull, a cauldron, and a water globe.

As of Monday, the product has sold out online, prompting a bit of a witch hunt in the review section for the product.  

So far, the pedestal has attracted 12 five-star reviews, and 92 one-star reviews. Many of the negative reviews express frustration with the company's website. Others have accused Bath & Body Works employees of purchasing the $39.95 pedestal themselves, with the intent of making a profit by jacking the price up on the resell market.

The review-bombing posts fall into a few categories. As of Monday, a total of 34 reviews contained specific accusations about resellers — or even Bath & Body Works employees — hording the pedestal. Other, more general complaints of abrupt order cancellation emails, cart errors, and inaccurate website stock listings are featured in 30 reviews. Overall, the pedestal's average rating value is one-and-a-half out of five, from 110 reviews that began in July.

"This seasonal item was quite popular and sold quickly," a Bath & Body Works spokesperson told Insider. "When we reviewed the stats, there was nothing out of line for associate sales. We look forward to bringing even more seasonal favorites to our customers."

Insider has not seen any proof that Bath & Body Works employees are behind the shortage. But reviewers seem to have a point when it comes to the issue of resellers lay hands on the decoration. On eBay, the product is currently being sold for anywhere between $15.19 to $199.99. One bundle of five pedestals is listed at $799.99.

To find out whether the online toil and trouble is bubbling over into stores, Insider rang up 11 Bath & Body Works stores in Indianapolis and the surrounding suburbs. One store never picked up the phone. Employees from the other 10 confirmed that the item is out of stock in their location. Three employees recommended calling back later in the afternoon, after their shipment was fully unloaded and inventoried. Two said specifically that the witch hand pedestal was in particularly high demand.
