Make your next gathering spooky scary.
EW
Pat the Zombie
What: A grown-up riff on beloved children’s classic Pat the Bunny, the book ($8) mimics the original but adds such macabre delights as scratch-and-sniff mildewing flesh and touch-and-feel innards.
Why: Judy can gut the zombie. Now you gut the zombie.
Where: Online at amazon.com.
SUPPORT
Mothers in Need
What: Choose an item for a refugee, dedicate it to someone special, and the International Rescue Committee will take care of the rest.
Why: Choose from a safe birthing kit ($24) for a baby born in a crisis area, prenatal care ($52) for an expectant mom in a war-torn region, a family survival kit ($215), job training ($330), and more.

ADMIRE
Everything Flowers
What: The collection ($17) of vibrant paintings (which draw from Quaker and Latino folk art, Native American craft, and more) is too pretty to stay contained within the book covers. We suggest carefully extracting the pages to hang as prints.
Why: Surrealist images, such as a couple of dark-haired women watching as two bears embrace, are pleasantly disconcerting.
Where: Online at amazon.com.
WEAR
Jesse Kamm
What: Handcrafted in Cali, the easy, breezy line ($135-$650) is now available for all. Experience clean lines, meticulous construction, and work-to-play styles that ensure every piece a happy home in your closet for years.
Why: Carry your life around contentedly in a classic tote and live in the Knot dress, which will successfully outfit you from weddings to brunches.
Where: Online at jessekamm.com.
SAVOR
Sweet & Sara Vegan Marshmallows
What: The original purveyor of gelatin-free, kosher treats has tinkered with its recipe and dropped prices ($5 a pack) with sweet results.
Why: Make s’mores with the original vanilla, enjoy the toasted coconut all by its lonesome, and pass around the cinnamon pecan for a nutty time.
