The York Ghost Merchants is a shop in York, England, that makes small collectible ghost figurines that are both charming and mysterious.

According to their website: “The ancient city of York has a reputation for being the most haunted city in Europe, perhaps even the world. There is rich tradition here of ghost storytelling which stretches back for many centuries.”

“Each ghost is handmade on an extraordinary medieval street called the Shambles, combining the best of British materials with the sagacity and resource of Guild craftsmen and women.”

“Every ghost is unique, with a spirit all its own.”





Unfortunately, the Merchants only release new specters once a week, and these one-of-a-kind creations vanish quickly. But you can see more of their spooky items perennially haunting their Instagram page.

Wow. I really LOVE these little guys!
A good friend with impeccable taste sent me the link, so I can’t take credit! I’m glad you like them too. 😉
I tried really hard to get one of these today. No ghost for me. 👻
Same here! They really go fast. ;_;
