# Crossbones Wine Stoppers This Skull Bottle Stopper Prevents Open Liquor from Walking the Plank By Alyson Wyers | Published 2013-08-20 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skull-bottle-stopper References: [fancy](http://fancy.com/things/366719662735496099/Engraved-Skull-LED-Stopper) & [addisoncollection.net](http://www.addisoncollection.net/two80083.html) This skull bottle stopper is a macabre way to keep your vino fresh. The Engraved Skull LED stopper not only features a skull design, but also lights up thanks to LED lights. The bottom of the stopper is a classic tapered shape. The skeletal stopper is powered by three button batteries, which come included. The skull bottle stopper works for a variety of bottles. This means one could also keep their rum fresh and their bootlegged wine from spoiling. The skull design also makes it a great season decoration, for any Halloween hosting duties. The stopper also makes a unique gift for any dark and twisted friends, who also enjoy a drink. The product comes delivered in a gift box as well. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 16% | Activity: 31% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Macabre Bottle Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunities include creating unique and visually appealing bottle stoppers or accessories that cater to unconventional and alternative tastes. - **Led-enhanced Wine Stoppers:** Disruptive innovation opportunities involve incorporating LED lights into wine bottle stoppers to add an interactive and eye-catching element to the product. - **Seasonal-themed Barware:** Disruptive innovation opportunities exist in designing specialized barware with seasonal-themed designs, providing consumers with unique options to enhance their holiday celebrations. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Wine Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunities lie in creating novel and unconventional wine accessories that cater to diverse consumer preferences and add a touch of uniqueness to wine-related experiences. - **Gift Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunities involve developing unique and quirky gift items, such as macabre bottle stoppers, that cater to niche markets and provide distinctive gifting options. - **Home Decor:** Disruptive innovation opportunities exist in designing home decor items that serve multiple functions, such as skull bottle stoppers that can be used for both practical purposes and decorative accents. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bottle-Optimizing Wine Stoppers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-stopper-1.md) - [Wine Bottle Cork Trimmers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qwikcork.md) - [Glow-in-the-Dark Rum Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limited-edition-skeleton-bottle.md) - [Halloween-Themed Alcohol Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloweenthemed-alcohol-bottles-bacardis-limited-edition-bottle-will-light-.md) - [Sparkling Wine Preservation Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coravin.md) - [Glow-in-the-Dark Wine Labels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/19-crimes-wine.md) - [Flavor Preservation Wine Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coravin-timeless-three-sl.md) - [AR Glow-in-the-Dark Wines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloween-wine.md) - [Bat-Shaped Wine Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-and-beer-openers.md)
