Halloween beckons! And it's full of weird metal bugs, leggy spiders, funny skulls and skeleton arms. Oh, and gonks of course. All the gonks. Great.

The fabric made me think the couch had caught fire at some point for a half a second. A proper scare that.
British
I thought that he broke his sofa and i was fully scared for a second 🤣
Hah at least I'm not the only one that thought that.
Same here :'D
I didn't see that the black thing was fabric so I was like "He has finally set fire to the sofa".
Edit: The braid-Gonk makes me think of Obelix.
Gonk.
Dito
yeah, i was like "that's not braids, that's Obelix's mustache"
Oh my gosh I thought the same thing 😂
I started watching this when I was at school and now I’m an adult. The Ashens Specials truly have been the only constant in my life
Wow, fast childhood. The video is only 18.5 minutes long. (ha ha ha)
@@danceswithdirt7197 I hate that I laughed
The video isn't THAT long
Pointless shite. I’ve been on UA-cam from day one. Before Google bought and fucked it
I was already out of school by the time I started watching Ashens, Class of 2011 here.
That jump scare really got me!
I needed my Poundland toilet paper.
And those scary sound effects during the video. Had me shivering in me trousers.
And that capital punishment gonk. Jeebus, talk about scary.
The scariest item
Same, always need a snack to recover from a big scare.
Good thing they are such a reasonable price
I love this channel. 14 years and not a single change basically lol
This is what people mean when they say they miss the old internet.
I walked past my sister the other week watching one of his videos and she said no way your still watching him... obviously his content is just the best
Well, except a lot of dropped content. It's now basically just a "look at the crap I found at the pound shop". Still fun, but not the same. I'd actually like to see him bring back the MRE thing he did a few times.
Except for his presenting style.
He lost a lot of hair.
I almost choked on my water when stuart said "let's get the gonks out the way" gonks had been gone from my mind for some blissful months and now apparently the mere utterance of gonk makes me laugh my stomach out.
Honestly, the tinsel black cat just brought back happy memories of Halloween from my childhood. My grandpa had one and would put it out on the mailbox every year. Nothing anyone but me cares about, I know, but it brought me a little bit of happiness
Hands up who misses the Silver Skull.
👋
✋✋✋✋✋✋✋✋✋✋✋✋✋
Silvery chode was good enough replacement for me.
And his virtuoso organ noodlings.
🦹🙋🙋🙋🙋
'She's collapsed from the horror of it.'
Why did this make me snort with laughter? 😄
the innocent faces of poundland staff when stuart walks into the shop
That’s the fucking theme to angry buds
I had a black cat name Drusilla (the one from my profile pictures) who passed away this spring. But when she was young we came across that exact tinsel cat at the Dollar Tree. We had just watched the Family Guy episode with Bitch Stewie the Stewie clone. So we called the tinsel cat Bitch Dru. Drusilla did not like Bitch Dru. We recently found Bitch Dru in storage and it made us smile. Happy to see her cousins are still finding homes as well.
I respect Bitch Dru
So sorry you most your baby this spring, but glad you found some happy memories with the tinsel cat 🐈⬛
Dang! That intro startled my bones right outta my body. (Don't worry, Slepp shall receive the bones promptly)
can't believe you took this long to give slepp the idol your bones :/
I got the joke!
It feels like we're one big family 😊
I walked into Wilko yesterday and thought to myself “I can’t wait for the ashens Halloween special”, and low and behold my wish has been granted
How spooky. It was like a premonition from behind the grave. Without that grave part, or spookyness… or being a premonition. Otherwise though, exactly like that.
I went into Lidl today to see if they had any specials on.. but it was mostly normal staff today
Lo, not low
A new Homestar Runner halloween toon, an Ashens special, it's a good time.
@@kjw21411 is lo a silent laugh?..
where you make the facial gesture but with no vocal.. a silent 'l'...
A bit like a social-media selfie of 'hey wow you just caught me having a spontaneous great time!!!''
But their eyes don't tell lies...
Perhaps the most valuable part of this video to me is that it taught me the word “lenticular,” or “when a picture changes when you look at it from different angles.” Lovely!
Ashens: Apologizes for defiling the Holy Couch
Skeleton hand: 👌
"Do not eat the sun!" - a useful thing to keep in mind when training the wolf Skalli!
Or talking with Vexoria.
I actually really liked the Gem Bugs. Feels like they need to be in some low budget movie about Egypt. They're cursed items in some tomb that unlucky bandits pick to loot.
Imagine the embarrassment being the vampire that meets his fate to the Poundland Skeleton Hand Stake lololo
When I was a kid in the 90's we had those jelly bugs here in the US but they were called slimey slurpees. They were shaped like bugs spiders snakes and frogs. They basically tasted like artificial chemically fruit. As a kid I thought they were great. I would probably find them disgusting now. We also had giant gummy spiders. They were pretty good.
The transformer noise when the spider unfolded and then the spider running around made me laugh so hard I cried
If ashens is doing a Halloween special, it can only mean one thing............We're one month away from Advent Calendar Days!!
I hope we have some unusual ones this year. That "Pensioner's Breakfast" was cool.
Yesssssssss!
My favorite holiday is Halloween but for some reason my favorite videos by ashens is the easter poundland videos
I can't wait!!!! I hope they picked good ones...... Or entertainingly bad ones lol
I'm homeless and after a rough day out here, ashens video usually gives me a good laugh. Also the holiday specials are some of my favorites. He always seems to pick out the most charming and funny little items out of poundland.
I go to the dollar stores here in the U.S. and see similar stuff.
Sorry to hear about your situation, best of wishes this coming winter season. Stay safe out there friend
Keep up the hard work, that is existing in this north American society, and don't give up.
I had to live outside when I was in college. (My scholarship wasn't enough to cover a room, and my jobs had to pay for tuition that my scholarship didn't quite cover all the way.) The worst part about being homeless was all the stereotypes that people believe about us just because we've been stuck without a place to stay for a while. And it's all made worse by the fact that most people aren't interested in the truth about who we really are. Every time I see something on a UA-cam channel that promotes one of those stereotypes, I unsubscribe immediately. I can't stand to hear the stereotypes. It makes me feel like I'm imploding into a sea of some sort of acid that rots away my entire body from the inside out.
@@tictacleia explain
Nice that these videos gather us all here, regardless of our situation, where we can laugh. Fight on, stay safe, and godspeed to ya mate. All the best to you
Had one of those tinsel cats as a child. Actual cat freaked out by it, without fail, every year. Highly recommended.
It does look quite startled and startling. Not sure what my dogs would think of it.
I love the tinsel cat, and would also keep him forever. My favourite thing like this is a tinsel moon with one eye and a santa hat. I have brought out my cyclops moon every year for over a decade now.
Of all the things I never thought I'd see mentioned anywhere, the one-eyed tinsel half moon with a santa hat ranks pretty high. I get mine out for Christmas. :D
@@Ganjoff this made my morning 🥹
I'm thinking those bug gummies are some sort of universal experience.
We all thought they disappeared because our parents stopped buying them but no...
They were with us all along. Like that footprints in the sand thing.
Those lenticular photo frames are from the 2019 Halloween special, I'm sure of it haha. I think it's from the 2019 one they just look really familiar
He's definitely reviewed them! I'm not sure the year though Edit: To be fair, he's been at it quite a while! Plus, with all the goings on of the world, heck my whole days are blurring together!
yup he’s done them before
Lenticular stuff never goes out of style IMO.
I’ve got one of a ww1 soldier and he looks just like on of me friends and turned int o freaked out skeleton with dread locks
7:20 Although it seems like a horrific waste of packaging, it's important to remember you can re-use the 'mould' to make interesting ice cubes, perhaps for a halloween party :)
Or to mould jelly or chocolate.
@@TessaOswin I wouldn't try smelting gold into novelty shaped bullion though :)
Just as an FYI those "dog toys" from poundland last about an hour and a half with my collie.
Christ she went through a "Kong" toy as if it was butter! I love my pup!
Same with my mums border terrier he'll destroy anything
Yup my great dane destroys them in minutes. Kong toys too. Yet he's surprisingly gentle with a tennis ball.
The extremely British jumpscare had me literally laughing out loud. So polite and almost apologetic ^_^
Aldi has been really obsessed with gonks all year, they sell seasonal themed gonks now.
I want that cat more than I've ever wanted anything in my life... Just the thought of someone driving by my house, glancing over, and seeing that in the window, makes me laugh uncontrollably.
The squeaky dog toy actually sent my dog over and got him sniffing the phone lmao
B&M, according to their website, are apparently doing quite a few GONK related things for Christmas and Halloween.. including the Christmas Gonk Snowglobe. The description, of course, reads: "No festive home is complete without a gonk snowglobe!". Bloody marvelous.
Gonks were a thing in the 60s 😂
Valour pumpkins look like they would make nice props for Green Goblin cosplay
that straw does give fuse vibes
the Gonks are my favorite Ashens cinematic universe recurring characters
I miss the Grass Masks...
Neither are a patch on the Reliable Reindeer and we all know it.
I adore those gem bugs! I'd turn them into brooches and wear them year round.
Damn, why didn't I get any Gem Bugs at Dollarama?
Those bug jellies remind me of the He-Man jellies of the 80s, they were delicious.
Or Creepy Crawlers to us 90s kids...
With those bugs you can reenact the "slimy yet satisfying" scene from The Lion King.
I hecking love startled tinsel cat, I hope he returns with a tiny tinsel hat for the Christmas special.
I can't help but wonder what an Ashens directed Halloween movie would be like.
He's quite into low-budget horror and filmmaking, so it'd be entirely possible.
It would be like his 2011 Halloween Special.
@@AgentTasmania I wouldn't be surprised if that was his next movie after Paul Gannon and the Horny Sailor.
Ashens Halloween movie but he can only use items from his Halloween specials as props.
@Max possibly similar in quality to the Polybius Heist. That's got a 5.8 on IMDB as of right now.
Jumpscare and ghosts and something.
Happy to see at least a part of Silver Skull making a return.
I have the tinsel cat for a few years now, when my landlord was doing the Halloween hunt for kids (each shop in town would participate in giving small candy to little toddlers for ToTing) there was these little plastic pumpkin baskets filled with candy (smaller than your hand type) she told me to take one and I use it on my little tinsel cat as well as a red ribbon around the neck. Love it.
We have the Gonks over in America too now and I still don’t understand why but I love them ❤
I was stuck in hospital all day yesterday, and had to get transfused again (Lot of health battles, but this weird, crazy hedgehog lady is winning! Plus hey, subsisting on the blood of the living is kinda seasonal! 😜) and was feeling rough and really down tonight. Then this popped up just now in my YT feed and legit made me squee so loudly, my hedgehog gave me annoyed side-eye. We watched and as always, LOVED it! Thanks so much for all your great content. You’ve brightened my day and helped me keep smiling more than once, so figured I should let you know. Keep at it! Quillemina the weird, adorable little hedgehog and I think you rock! 🤘🏻🎃😁🦔
I'm dying laughing when he got out the Travel Mode spider and made the sound effects.
Never change Ashens. You bring so much joy to us!!!
Those gem ones would be a good embellishment on a cape for a witch costume.
The skull reminds me of Medievil on the PS1., or maybe a bit of Nightmare before Christmas. There's a Christmas gonk on my Sealey advent calendar, I don't think it was added to the image by anyone but just appeared after printing.
Haha, i thought of Medievil too!
I love these specials, I’m excited looking forward to them every year!
The skull looks like Boney from 'The Trap Door' stop animation voiced by the awesome Willie Rushton, it was also a good Sinclair game!
My thought exactly :)
I remember
When me and my friends would do that circle game it would be a punch to the nuts
9:18 Not that Stuart would ever use this power of course.
Just like the dozen halloween specials before it.
Exactly how I like it. Thank you. Here, have a pumpkin 🎃. And a ghost 👻.
Only 32 more days until Ashens Advent Calendars!
Watching this after a night out
Ashens: "Is your dog at home going mad yet?"
Me: spinning out because of the noise
Are you a dog?
@@skootergirl22 certainly felt like one
@@matt29131234 are ypu a furry?
9:45 "This product is NOT INDESTRUCTIBLE" thanks for clearing that up lol
Something about the velour pumpkin made me burst out into a fit of laughter. I'm not sure if my sense of humor is broken or the phrase "velour pumpkin" is genuinely that funny.
The skull tea light thing, reminds me of boni from trap door
Aww man Neptune was looking so appetising today😢
Right?!?
15:03 Oh YES. This is clearly the jewel of the lot. Disgusting and perfect.
When that skeleton hand came out I literally burst out laughing... We play that game in the warehouse at work and the first thing I thought is "damn that skeleton got me".
"thats the Gonk report" looking forward to more news on the gonk front ashens, god speed. may you be protected from, and blessed by the gonks.
We've had one of those tinsel black cats for years now! When our black cat was younger she was actually afraid of it 😂 (My younger sister loved to chase her around the house holding the tinsel cat)
Happy Halloween ashens! Don't let the bed Gonks bite!
Ah yes, haunted portraits...one of my favorite types of halloween props.
I think the black spider was the creepiest, and I love spiders. But that cat with the wonky eyes takes the biscuit for hilarity !
the "skull" tea light holder is clearly a mildly surprised ghost octopus
Yes. My dog was sleeping. Thanks Ashens!
I hope he does the Advent calendar for Christmas this year
"Let us never mention it again"
We haven't Stuart! You're the one who keeps bringing it up!
Love the spider impression! And I really want a black tinsel cat now!
Another Halloween special, and hopefully many more to come!
I love these specials. Thank you for still doing these.
^ (to the tune of "Mr. Heat Miser")
he's mr. fakerrrrrr
he's mr. scam
(bada, dada)
he's mr. scammerino
he's mr. no-more-money
@@-throat- The funny thing is UA-cam auto deleted my reply to the scammer, but kept their comment up, even after I reported it. lol But omg that old reference was good XD
@@SharonLougheed - Haha, thanks =)
My bird is chirping to the dog toy squeaking while my dogs did nothing! 😂
The skull reminds me of 'Boni' from The Trap Door 😁🤣
Somehow nothing has scared me on this channel quite like Doctor War jumping back and forth declaring his name.
The dog toy monster looks kinda like an amalgamation of Mike Wazowski and Sulley from Monsters, Inc., he even has the same number of eyes as both of them combined.
The skull tealight holder instantly reminded me of the 80s childrens show Trapdoor.
Were you tempted to bonk Boni?
@@AriadneJC I mean, bonk like 'knock him on the head' bonk. or...
At first I thought you had burnt the couch, before realizing it was fabric 😂
Same here.
That jump scare is giving me nightmares now, so thanks for that. What an absolutely terrifying lot of Halloween goodies. The tinsel cat looks so realistic and horrifying the trick or treators will most definitely be scared right away, lol.
Wooo! Another cherished tradition returns!!
Those bug gummies awakened a repressed childhood memory in me. I wonder if they have any at the local dollar store. 🤔
6:00 - Slime Slurps!! I remember them! I loved the alien versions. They were sooo good.
I remember getting them for a quarter each when i was younger hahha
Woo, I love the Holiday Tat, Keep up the good work and bring us back Barshens... I miss Eli.
I thought I'd missed you setting fire to the couch lol
Fun fact Silly String was originally invented to be a spray on casting material for broken limbs but it's inventors had way too much fun in the lab that it became the legend that is Silly String 👍
Oh damn, that jump scare at the start really got me.
Yay! It's the annual special that I always wait for with anticipation! No, not Charlie Brown, it's Ashens Halloween!
Man that was my favorite part of The Hobbit, when Billy Bob Lebedumbum yelled “It’s dwarve’n time!” then dwarved all over the place.
The silly string is in the same configuration as the skeleton hand 😳👌
Ah, a Halloween tradition
Nothing gets me in the holiday spirit like one of these holiday poundland videos.
00:05 just shat myself overwhelmed by utter terror... 😂 🤣
Someone somewhere thought "Yeah these gem bugs will turn a profit"
Thanks for making such a lovely video, it's become a tradition now.
This guy never changed yet he's entertaining me to this day
“get the gonks out of the way” 😂 what we’re all thinking
The world isn't complete without an ashens special 😊
What we always wait for halloween.
I've been patiently waiting for Halloween tat!!
