Gothic stocking stuffers
Small, cheap-feeling in the best way, and slightly cursed.
The stocking is where the strange gifts go. Nobody expects a stocking stuffer to be tasteful, which means it is the one place in the holiday where a duck that says something rude about your anxiety is fully appropriate.
Everything on this list is small: pins, stickers, a pocket-sized raven, kitchen tools shaped like skulls, a deck of cryptid playing cards. Small enough to go in a stocking, an advent calendar or the bottom of a bigger gift bag. Most of them are fun to open and then turn out to be quietly useful, which is the best thing a stocking stuffer can do. The enamel pins and sticker packs are the safest bets for someone whose taste you only half know. The bath ducks and the pickle are for someone whose sense of humor you know very well.
