    The Goblins are pleased to present the BPTP Halloween update that is now live! First, the seasonal items:

     

    + BPTP HALLOWEEN SPRAYS

    AUTUMN GROVE

    Black oak bark and fallen acorns on a bed of dry leaves.

     

    HALLOWEEN: NEW ORLEANS

    The distinctive scent of the Mississippi at night mingling with sweet olive and Spanish moss.

     

    NUT CRACK NIGHT

    Burning the nuts is a favourite charm. They name the lad and lass to each particular nut, as they lay them in the fire; and accordingly as they burn quietly together, or start from beside one another, the course and issue of the courtship will be. Robert Burns

     

    The scent of roasted hazelnuts, oak nuts, and chestnuts.

     

    SAMHAIN

    Truly the scent of autumn itself -- damp woods, fir needle, and black patchouli with the gentlest touches of warm pumpkin, clove, nutmeg, allspice, sweet red apple and mullein.

     

     

    + BPTP HALLOWEEN SOAPS

    JACK

    The scent of warm, glowing jack o'lanterns on a warm autumn night:

    true Halloween pumpkin, spiced with nutmeg, glowing peach and murky clove.

     

    RIMMON

    Thy lips are like a thread of scarlet, and thy speech is comely: thy temples are like a piece of a pomegranate within thy locks. the Song of Solomon, 4:3

     

    SAGARDOA

    Tam, tam, tam, tam,

    Rapetanplan.

    Ez dut minik sabeletan!

    Nahi nuke

    Ehun urthe,

    Hola egon banindaite!

    Iohoho! Iohoho! Iohoho!

    Hola egon banindaite!

     

    Basque hard apple cider. A tribute to my ancestors.

     

     

    + BPTP HALLOWEEN BATH OILS

    PUMPKIN PIE

    Devilishly decadent and a little bit ridiculous!

     

     

    ++ PERFUME OIL

    CANDY CORN COATED CANDY APPLE

    Tart green apples coated in thick gobs of melty granulated white sugar, with butter, bourbon vanilla, and a dash of cinnamon, spattered by candy corn and candy sprinkles.

     

     

    And also, an INQUISITION!

    --

     

    + TRICK OR TREAT

    What'll it be this year, kids?

    Will you be gorging yourself on candy or sitting by the fireside telling ghostly tales?

    Let the Alchemy Lab Imps and Trading Post Goblins decide!

    Limited Edition Halloween combo pack!

     

    The Inquisition has returned!

     

    Whats in store for you this Halloween? Let the Alchemy Lab Imps and Trading Post Goblins decide! THIS is the TRICK OR TREAT INQUISITION!

    For $60US, you will receive a themed bath oil concocted by Black Phoenix Trading Post, a soap created in cahoots with Villainess, and a Trick or a Treat oil from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab. You have a

    choice: let the Black Phoenix mascots determine your fate, or persuade the goblins and imps into tricking or treating you.

     

    How do you influence the imps and goblins? You may plead your case in the comments field of your order. If you choose to leave it blank, the denizens of Black Phoenix will utilize the ancient art of sniffomancy in order to determine your fate. Time permitting, all entries will be published on the Black Phoenix Trading Post web site as they come in, unless you request otherwise. Please indicate whether you wish to remain anonymous, and if you would like your name published, how you wish for it to appear.

     

    This years Treats are all spooky-themed treats, and this years Tricks were inspired by the Scottish tradition of guising, and are named after unfriendly creatures from Scottish folklore.

     

     

    IF YOU ARE A TREAT

     

    ... you will receive a bottle of Treatsy bath oil, a bar of Plastic Jack OLantern soap, and one of these Black Phoenix Treat perfume oils, chosen at random:

     

    Ginger Skulls Zingy crystallized ginger candies with quince and Asian pear.

    OR

    Licorice Bats Black licorice with cacao nibs and anise.

    OR

    Marshmallow Pumpkin Marshmallow goo and pumpkin pulp! And yes this, too, is vegan!

     

    TREATSY BATH OIL

    Apple candies and lemon drops.

     

    PLASTIC JACK OLANTERN SOAP

    A plastic Jack oLantern, scattered with bits of rock candy, honey taffy, butterscotch, marshmallow buttons, gumdrops, jellybeans, and bubblegum.

     

     

    IF THE GOBLINS SAY TRICK EM

     

    ... you will receive a bottle of Tricksy bath oil, a bar of an t-Samhuinn soap, and one of these Black Phoenix Trick perfume oils, chosen at random:

     

    Bogle A garish shellycoat: red currant, Spanish mandarin, pumpkin, quince, wild blueberry, and ginger with green tea, vanilla bean, frankincense, tonka, and vetiver.

    OR

    Muilearteach Blood red, bone white, and pitch black musks coated in hoarfrost.

    OR

    Slaugh Champaca, black tea, tonka bean, and sassafras.

     

    TRICKSY BATH OIL

    Patchouli, aquilaria aguillocha, and Manuka honey.

     

    AN T-SAMHUINN SOAP

    Crushed East Lothian Pippin apples scattered amongst fallen leaves from dool trees, Arran Whitebeams, and Lochwood oaks.

     

     

    If you purchase an Inquisition pack, you will receive a small spritzer bottle of White Pumpkin Extrait and a Wad of Chewed Up Strawberry Bubblegum (an impful!). White Pumpkin and Wad are not available separately.

     

    You may place an order for multiple sets, or place multiple orders, and in either case, each will be considered separately in the course of the Inquisition process. If you are placing an order for more than one set, you may submit multiple Trick or Treat pleas, applicable to each order. Once your Trick or Treat status is determined, we will send you an Inquision pack that contains a perfume, a bath oil, and a soap from the category (Trick or Treat) that you were assigned to, plus Wad of Chewed Up Strawberry Bubblegum, the White Pumpkin Extrait spray, and a few little FunThings as determined by the Imps, Goblins, and Mister Tedwin. One perfume, one soap, and one bath oil will manifest per order. As a break from tradition, we will be offering some of the Trick and Treat products separately.

     

    You have until October 10th, 2010, at which point the Imps and Goblins will retire to their conference room and cease to accept orders.

    Orders are in NO WAY guaranteed to arrive before Halloween, but the Trading Post worker bees will do their best.

     

    The artwork for this Trick or Treat series was created by the incomparable Julie Dillon, the Inquisition labels were designed by the amazing Kira Butler, and the soaps were handcrafted by (the truly badass) Master Soaper Brooke Stant of Villainess fame!

     

     

    Wait, whats this? Oh,

    something else…

    Greetings,

     

    I have listed a few tidbits on Ebay and even some of the old OOAK bottles that the Lab used to store and pour the 5ml bottles.

    Interesting for those who like the history of BPAL: http://members.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?V...oenixalchemylab

     

    Sue and Del at Dark Delicacies also have two fun mystery BPAL grab bags up for auction on their site! http://www.darkdel.com Proceeds from the Dark Delicacies auctions go towards helping them with the costs of moving to their new location!

    Due to unprecedented demand, both Snake Oil Soap and Embalming Fluid Soap are on back order.

     

    Since the soap takes a bit of time to cure, we won't be able to ship orders for Snake Oil Soap until the first week of April, and won't be able to ship order for Embalming Fluid Soap until after April 15th.

     

    Due to the costs of shipping, we are unable to ship partial orders.

     

    We apologize for the delay and promise to get these orders out as quickly as we are able.

    I would like to take a moment to thank everyone that bid on the Ebay auctions.

    I just sent $1100.00 to help in Haiti and it is all because of the generosity of the best people in the world.

     

    Thanks everyone.

     

    xoxo

    Beth, Puddin' along with and all the Lab Rats and Goblins
