One white ceramic ghost holder with star-shaped openings, designed by Something Different for a tealight or incense cone. The illustration shows two uses, not a two-pack. It is a finished holder rather than a craft kit; provide a suitable light separately and follow the maker’s use instructions.

A finished ceramic ghost-and-pumpkin tealight ornament from Shudehill’s Village Pottery range, about 18 × 12 × 15.7cm. This larger decorative choice takes one tealight through a rear opening. The selected design is Ghosts and Pumpkins, not the range’s separate house or cauldron variants.

Why people love it
Why it makes such a good gift
Choose the light source first. The DSL double-pumpkin witch has a built-in colour-changing LED, with LR44 batteries included according to the maker’s catalogue. It is the ready-lit route for someone who enjoys a brighter character ornament. At approximately 24cm tall, it needs more room than a tiny shelf decoration.
The Something Different Hey Boo ghost is a smaller ceramic holder with star openings. It is sold as one holder, even though the photograph shows tealight and incense uses side by side. The light or incense is a separate decision; do not assume a candle is supplied.
Village Pottery’s Ghosts and Pumpkins is the larger, hand-finished decorative route, with a ghost in a witch’s hat and pumpkin shapes. The selected ornament is about 18 × 12 × 15.7cm and takes a tealight through an opening at the back. Check that the recipient has a suitable surface and space before choosing it.
- For a tealight holder, consider a suitably sized LED tealight if they prefer to avoid a live flame.
- Follow the maker’s instructions for candles or incense, including heat and placement; a decorative ceramic object is not a toy.
- No outdoor weather-resistance rating is established for these choices, so buy them for indoor display.
A finished lantern is for someone who wants the decoration itself. A recipient who would rather paint a pumpkin should start with the Halloween craft-kit page instead. Both are seasonal gifts, but they offer different experiences.
