1:16
follows these are designated mini
1:18
pumpkins because there's more than one
1:20
or two there's there's many first
1:23
impression this place is a lot larger
1:25
than I expected it to be so all kind of
1:28
stuff through here a few of these look
1:30
like they've been flattened especially
1:32
that one right there it's very narrow
1:33
this fountain as lion heads spitting out
1:38
water and as I turn around you can see
1:42
the assortment of different plants that
1:44
are in here
1:50
these hanging versions are very
1:50
interesting very decorative the statue
1:52
would make excellent yard decor but I
1:55
like it where it's stationed in front of
1:57
that very unique looking tree back there
2:00
and there's a water fountain right in
2:02
front of the statue you wet your whistle
2:06
down at the base at the root system are
2:09
these mushrooms but they're not real
2:11
mushrooms they are hand-painted ceramic
2:14
versions
2:27
I know it's not an octopus plant well
2:27
that's my that's what I'm thinking it
2:30
looks like that butterfly is about to
2:32
perch do you know what type of a foliage
2:36
that is yes this is intently probably an
2:39
experience plan how they say asparagus
2:42
asparagus but right here
2:44
well that makes that that could be wrong
2:45
yeah that does kind of look like no it
2:47
does look like asparagus quite the
2:49
assortment of gourds corn stalks another
2:56
paraphernalia whoa what the heck kind of
3:04
plant life is that it's like a it's like
3:06
an eel
3:07
it's a guarding slogan that one's
3:11
slithering out of the pot when it comes
3:13
to having a green thumb I'm probably the
3:15
last person on your list that you want
3:16
to ask advice when it comes to this type
3:18
of stuff but it's pretty awesome edible
3:21
wall Gardens meaning everything it's all
3:24
herbs so can all be eaten dude
3:27
everything everything out of you know
3:30
this is sage I think yeah time me
3:33
awesome
3:35
some of these are very fascinating like
3:38
this one that has all the little little
3:40
bumps all over it it's a little a little
3:44
different then oh man there's a crow in
3:46
the background providing some ambiance a
3:48
sea creature display of some sort here
3:51
with his tail up to the sky
3:53
on a sidenote also on property at the
3:55
back of the restaurant area is this
3:57
gazebo which you may or may not remember
3:59
from old school Disneyland that's right
4:03
this sat in Disneyland first wrote one
4:08
always loved Nissim Disneyland history
4:11
this would be a pretty nice little setup
4:13
if you had a side porch another option
4:15
are these fish with some fangs there
4:20
they go fangs
4:21
you know what these are petunias
4:32
okay okay enough window-shopping I need
4:32
to get down to business and show the
4:35
whole reason I came to this location
4:38
right over there take a look at that
4:44
they have recreated Hogwarts right here
4:48
and that that cart just went right
4:51
through a fantasy zone certainly
4:54
something you don't see every day and
4:56
definitely not at a retail establishment
4:58
especially one that sells plants I got
5:01
to go inside here check this out I like
5:03
that this guy's just hanging around down
5:04
here at ground level but if you look up
5:06
there's the castle way up there basking
5:10
in the Sun immediately upon stepping in
5:13
you'll notice these Dementors all along
5:17
the roofline they're everywhere they're
5:20
just hanging around in here yeah there's
5:25
like they're tucked away in every little
5:27
nook and cranny
5:29
on your way in step out of the light
5:32
into the darkness if you will just be
5:35
aware of be aware of that bag while the
5:38
theming definitely a hundred percent on
5:41
points the book of spells is working on
5:45
its own in fact there's a whole heck of
5:48
a lot of them right here on this shelf
5:50
there is some really good stuff in here
5:54
everywhere everywhere you can there
5:56
there's something interesting everything
5:59
from unicorn skulls - howls - syringe
6:03
pens I'm not joking that's what it is
6:05
it's a pen made to look like a syringe
6:08
shaking this I gonna read my fortune
6:11
let's see what is in store for me don't
6:16
bet on it
6:18
Thanks all-seeing eye you are such a
6:22
great home toads vultures snakes and if
6:28
you think that one is impressive take a
6:31
look at that one busting through the
6:33
ceiling completely destroying the
6:35
structural stability of the wooden
6:37
planks busting through them like
6:40
nobody's business
6:41
its eyes are glowing flickering eyes of
6:45
a skin it in I'm sensing definitely
6:48
sensing a theme here up on top and even
6:52
stored down below oh excuse me I almost
6:58
stepped on you behind this glass
6:59
cylinder there are even some illuminated
7:02
there on the wall circling around to and
7:05
fro
7:27
next to this painting is an assortment
7:27
of candles with faces on them right
7:31
before our very eyes she's aging hey
7:35
check it out look he's getting older by
7:38
the second oh my goodness no it's almost
7:42
like a zombie of source and if you're
7:45
afraid of eight-legged creatures like
7:47
gigantic spiders might not want to stand
7:49
under that thing each particular section
7:54
has its own great assortment of
7:57
wonderful things some with a mind of
8:00
their own
8:01
actually my hand is moving that one but
8:04
check out this melting clock this has a
8:05
lot of weight to it probably weighs
8:07
about that's probably about 10 pounds or
8:10
so out of all these items the rat the
8:13
black cat this entire bookcase of skulls
8:17
I think this takes the cake probably for
8:20
the creepiest thing in this particular
8:24
look at this that's nightmare fuel candy
8:28
corn is popping into my head these
8:31
little trees are the color of candy corn
8:36
at least in my mind these are really
8:38
cute which the Bride of Frankenstein and
8:42
Frankie himself tucked away over here in
8:45
the corner I found another one yeah this
8:47
one that one takes the cake
8:50
one could definitely spend some serious
8:52
cash in here to say the least
9:08
holy cow that is a child's head and
9:08
there is a shrub growing out of the top
9:11
of it yeah there's a bunch of them look
9:13
they're in there in planners and pots oh
9:17
my goodness
9:20
mark sold I would not recommend looking
9:23
deep into its eyes do not look into its
9:27
eyes do not look at I said don't look in
9:30
its eyes if some of this decor is just a
9:34
little bit too far out of your comfort
9:37
zone don't be alarmed because they have
9:40
regular old school versions as well and
9:44
if price range is an issue they also
9:47
have a $5 bin where you can get a
9:51
tombstone
9:52
if you choose or what they designate as
9:55
a happy little pumpkin some great neon
9:58
for sale enter if you dare or some
10:03
eyeballs that are just floating around
10:04
on whatever you so choose you just point
10:06
it wherever you want the eyeballs
10:08
floating to appear
10:24
snow globes of the haunted persuasion I
10:30
was wondering if we'd see this and I was
10:32
right oh yeah there it is
10:55
really hoping there's a fan or an
10:55
air-conditioning vent up there moving
10:58
moving those leaves around or maybe the
11:02
foliage is afraid of all the skeletons
11:06
down here the store wouldn't be complete
11:09
without appropriate treats like that
11:13
ghosts and all the other delicacies if a
11:16
black cat crosses your path just bite
11:20
its cookie head off dun dun da da da I'm
11:27
providing my own soundtrack this
11:29
deteriorating wood chest almost looks
11:31
like there's a man holding a weapon at a
11:33
at a youth Ton Ton Ton Ton Ton Ton Ton
11:36
to tauntaun instead of snow there's
11:40
