For some, the excitement of Halloween runs so high that they can't wait for the fall to arrive, and with Summerween celebrations in full swing, this year's Bath & Body Works Halloween collection is already available online and in stores nationwide. Alongside returning favorite fragrances and fun decor designs, there are all-new scents and accessories to enjoy now through autumn.
For this collection, Bath & Body Works was inspired by haunting carnival fun, which is apparent in decor and accessories like the Glow-in-the-Dark Circus Luminary, the Light-up Fortune Teller PocketBac Holder, and the Neon Spooky Ferris Wheel Color-changing Nightlight. Beloved seasonal fragrances like Vampire Blood, Pumpkin Carving and Ghoul Friend are back with two brand-new Bath & Body Works fragrances: Cotton Candy Cobwebs and Carnival Fog.
