you think the energy + creativity Barbie puts into making these costumes, she'd think of literally anything other than a witch

[@that_tvhead]

skeleton queen or smth

[@miguelcruz2941]

kinda wished she had costumes based on classic monsters.

[@DylanRomanov]

I cannot get over the witch on fire Dress

[@grandmasgopnik9642]

@@miguelcruz2941 I know right? God a freaking creature from the black lagoon would be dope.

[@mynameskris]

i choose to believe barbie just likes witches

[@grenalien]

Personally I'm obsessed with the halloween Kellys. Particularly the sets where she comes with her friends, and the ones where she is dressed as a pumpkin. I stan a pumpkin kelly.

[@NoiseDay]

A small child in a pumpkin costume is just the darned cutest

[@fusetunes]

me too!! i specifically collect kellys wearing costumes. they're just so cute

[@littlegoblin6923]

I was about to argue about the whopper placement but then I remembered the only reason I like them so much is because they satisfy the part of my brain that wants to eat styrofoam…so maybe you’re right

[@eleegee]

LOL love this comment

[@br3akstuff]

Lmao

[@one-onessadhalf3393]

That actually makes no sense. I just like candies that I can roll around in my mouth.

[@JBabyLeather]

“ This is not Barbie on Halloween, this is Barbie after she went into the pastel goth tag” That comment sent me! 😂

[@Sophie_idk_lol]

Lol i read your comment at the exact moment when they said it 😂

[@CuriosityKilledThisCat]

Honestly, the very first Barbie taking Kelly trick or treating is one of my favorites in the whole video. I love the 90s era Barbies that are just Babs doing normal things. Sure, Barbie should dress up if she's going to a costume party, but her wearing a simple themed sweater to walk around the block is super charming. She's not a showstopper or anything, but she has a certain nostalgic appeal to me.

[@ally3966]

You summed it up perfectly. She’s always been my favorite Halloween barbie for those reasons.

[@markgoldby6502]

Barbie as 90s mom

[@grandmasgopnik9642]

I really like it plus I would wear that sweater. I actually remember the first time watching this video I started looking on eBay for Halloween sweatshirts 😅

[@20bluebug]

I'll second ally3966's reply :)

[@a-supernova-girl]

The Enchanted Halloween Barbie literally looks like she's being burned at the stake. Someone at Mattel definitely watched The Craft for the first time and said, "Nope, I've got to shut this down."

[@beelzemobabbity]

Uploading on my birthday!

[@tikitessie]

I love it for that reason! Oh, women who are independent and into herbs are dangerous and must be destroyed? Watch me wear these embers as glitter and be FABULOUS. I would 100% wear that gown and feel stunning.

[@idunnobutyay2520]

They unintentionally made a Salem Witch Trials Barbie

[@talaofthevalley]

That sigh followed by silence when you reached the last Barbie as you put her in the lowest tier killed me

[@silverwiki196]

I don't know how many there are but a bridal/wedding gown barbie tier list would be cool! The variation of the different wedding dress styles throughout the decades would be really cool to see

[@anaaifos]

Omg yess!!

[@allisonmaniscalco7617]

I’m a graphic designer at a small toy company and watching your videos is my favorite way to pass the time while I work!! Always get excited for new uploads

[@cryforhelp7270]

Does that mean you make the box art or the doll designs? I want details :o

[@digikaa]

@@cryforhelp7270 I want to know too! Sounds like a cool job

[@Chibiibot]

you're in my dream job rn haha

[@PocketDeerBoy]

She has the same taste in costumes as me tbh, if it were up to me i would also absolutely wear exclusively witch costumes for halloween

[@robyn00xx]

I do! I have been a witch every year since I was 6 (I’m 22 now)

[@hobbyistfairy1712]

Yeah me too

[@TheDreamingBean]

I think barbie should do more vampire halloween looks,I’m surprised that she hasn’t done more

[@danaeckert6824]

My brother is getting married on 10/31, so I'm going to be a groom's matron for Halloween, lol. I love your tier lists and the cat cam was so sweet! And your choker is so rad. Keep up the good work!

[@DarlingDollz]

A Halloween wedding sounds amazing 😻

[@Joolieannie]

I would love for you to also show the black versions of the Barbie’s in videos like this tbh! A lot of these had a black version I’m sure your audience would also love to see.

[@hamflavoredlipbalm6077]

GIRLLL!! love your stuff!!!

[@MildlyRabid]

Facts. Especially some of those orange and purple shades likely looked so much better on darker skin

[@BubblemouseM]

I wish I could keep the same consistency, with any aspect of my life, like Barbie has with Witch costumes 😭😂

[@Channotek72]

i LOVED secret spells barbie as a kid, and she absolutely holds up. the y2k witchy pop princess of my dreams

[@ohhellobethany]

I am living for your shirt and purple heart choker. So so cute. Gonna steal that look.

[@chloala4549]

I’m only 3 mins into the video, but I just wanted to say it gives me genuine joy to see you obviously becoming more confident on camera (and just in general)!! It’s made your videos more enjoyable for me but I also am just super happy for you as an Internet stranger 🥳

[@bella1rules]

Love your ranking videos, I’m sure I’ll see a lot of Barbies I’ve never heard of before. The choker you’re wearing is super cute!

[@Jhud69]

Love your outfits in these camera vids, hope I'll be able to fill my wardrobe like this soon too!

[@aliedawnwood]

Wow the collectors dolls are killing it. Sometimes the collector ones don't hit but all of these were just perfection

[@novembercrust]

The one that was the crop top and jeans witch that reminded you of Sabrina was actually the one that stood out to me from all the playline ones/all the witches. I can't remember her name, I think they were possibly all Halloween Haunt or Halloween Wishes. Anyway, I liked that she looked very Halloween but also has like ready to wear pieces that could mix and match with the rest of her wardrobe. Also the two Kelly's were pretty darn cute.

[@laney4286]

They need to film first ever Barbie horror where she goes to a party wearing a witch costume and all other guests are also Barbies in witch costumes

[@j.j.ranvier8256]

That would be hilarious and iconic

[@4everbratz]

I love (or loved) Halloween, and seeing dolls like Barbie in a spooky/cute costume is always a treat, most of the time at least. But my god, she sure loves dressing up as a witch, she probably buys at least 10 witch costumes every year haha. My personal faves are Purr-fectly Halloween from 2002 and Boo-itful Halloween from 2004. 🖤

[@DarlingDollz]

Taste!!

[@kittymae335]

I thought I'd seen every Halloween Barbie but I wasn't even close! I want Enchanted Halloween, her looking like a witch being burned and her thousand yard stare adds to it lmao. And Secret Spells because I am all for 'young women practicing various forms of magic'. And Moonlight Halloween because printed on lacing or not, that dress is just so me.

[@myragroenewegen5426]

Do love that early cheetah Barbie and Kelly. Seems like a costume I would actually wear as an adult woman for Halloween--interesting use of clothing features, classy, easy to move in and something that wouldn't only suit a blond. Could make the collar and cuffs detachable and able to be swapped out for more everyday for the rest of the autumn, maybe a simple black silk. Too bad the second, black kitty cat doll doesn't mine what a cat is for all the potentially interesting ideas near as well. Barbie seems to be going for classic Halloween fare. I'd rather see a unicorn costume or wizardry attire replacing the witch and lovely white-clad ghosts aren't so threatening that the play line should be avoiding them, like maybe is the thought for avoiding zombies and vampires.

[@skorupiis9980]

“I give ghost tours” that’s so cool?!?

[@ThePastelCowgirl]

I've basically evolved into Ron Swanson where I have my Halloween costume, and it's always a princess. Although having said that, I'm a little surprised that Barbie never dressed as a princess for Halloween, it feels like it'd be a no-brainer!

[@i.shelton4521]

your cat knew we needed a break from the onslaught of witch costumes. excellent timing

[@megancarter7139]

I counted 19 witch costumes out of 34 dolls. That’s 56% witch. It’s 20 witches if you include the 2019 Barbie.

[@PlaystationSimmer]

I actually liked the first set with Barbie and Kelly trick or treating. I wish more of the dolls leaned into that instead of just throwing her into a 2013 Hot Topic dress and a witch hat and calling it a day.

[@Ashimuro]

Your outfit would go perfectly with the g3 Draculaura gorganizer bat wings that comes with it! Also, you need to make "make it pink and glittery" a t shirt and by that standard, do you like the Costume Ball Bella Parker witch doll?

[@Screaming_Teddy]

I'm so excited for the cat cam! Such a cute little rascal ^^

[@robyn00xx]

2:45 “ I don’t know who is funding big Mary Jane” 😭😭😭😭 I’m sorry but as a smoker….. me….. I’m funding big Mary Jane 😭😭 Edit: as someone who has worn a witch costume EVERY year since I was 6….. I feel attacked by this video

[@dio1803]

I love these videos!! Glad to see you’re a fellow Reese’s stan 😌

[@StillSarah]

Love that we are getting to see more of your personality in these videos! Your sense of humor just adds that little touch that makes me double take and laugh. Keep it up :)

[@seraphinasullivan4849]

I think barbie kinda faces an uphill battle with halloween costumes. Barbie has been a fairy, a princess, a mermaid, and has had so many careers, including ballerina, doctor, presidential candidate, etc. While some of these designs are incredibly low effort, it's hard to imagine what they could do that's free from overt religious conotations, public domain/free use, not too scary for the target demographic or controversal to the parents buying them, and not just a silly version of the careers and fantasy lives she's had or animal ears on a plain outfit. Personally, i think the obvious answer is late 19th century fancy dress ball costumes but i guess the basic halloween witch costume is cheaper and more accessible and iconically halloween to the average consumer.

[@grenalien]

I keep getting so excited when I see you in my sub box because you always deliver the goods and look stunning at the same time🤩 Gotta add alot of these barbies to my wishlist!!

[@midoriya-shonen]

I'm actually in love with that ghost collector's doll holy crap. She's so beautiful!!! My favorites out of the playline are mostly the ones with sleeker, more form-fitting dresses. They're so elegant and fit my idea of a Halloween aesthetic wonderfully. Plus dresses like that (especially the darker colored ones) are more out of the box for Barbie so I'm grateful for the creativity!

[@kimberlyhlava9079]

Okay I love both the ghosty Barbies the playline one the best as you chose , but both are just well...perfect

[@irise659]

oh i am so pumped for this

[@keitiuwu8031]

I loved the first ghost Barbie you shared and the pink Halloween Barbie! I wanted them so bad when I was younger but my mom never got them for me. I hope you have a fun and spooky Halloween! I'm going to be a bumble bee this year to hand out candy :)

[@adriannanorwood]

The last ranking you did was hilarious 😂😂. Anyways, I love watching your videos 🥰

[@TBCaine]

you can see the start of the decline in playline right at 2012 where the dresses start to look more papery…. It’s so sad to see. wtf happened at Mattel during 2013/2014, both Barbie and MH started to drop in quality around that time.

[@Itsanit_Isnt_It]

could you imagine being a barbie collector in the 2000s and having a thousand witch barbies

[@luinias]

It's always interesting to see dolls like this. Some are amazing, some are low effort and some are mid. As for Halloween, I'm dressing up as Draculaura!

[@DarlingDollz]

Omg that's an awesome costume!

[@luinias]

@@DarlingDollz yes, I am so excited for it! G3 Draculaura, i should clarify 😀

[@flora9308]

monster high costume gang! I’m going as spectra and the rest of my friends are going as Frankie, draculaura, hoodude, and rochelle

[@YossDillo]

What a year to not dress up as a witch! (Seriously, by time you got to that last doll I could see your soul leaving just a little bit) If I do dress up this year I think I'm going to try and emulate teddy bear vibes, however I do want to make a Halloween paper doll.

[@SimmerErin]

I LOVE this video! I love all your videos, but Halloween is my favorite holiday and I was so excited to see this :). I have to say I agreed with most of your opinions. They REALLY need to get past all the witch outfits, and I hope they return to making Halloween ones. My favorite is the one at 10:01 or so. I love the look, especially with the details and color combos.

[@EdieBird]

Maybe Enchanted Halloween is dressed as a witch burning at the stake... would explain the thousand-yard stare! Somewhere in my boxes of dolls, I have the Secret Spells Kayla, just a gorgeous doll. I was just getting away from church when she came out and I remember at least one incident where the preacher had gone into a rant about how vile and evil Barbie was. Barbie can be counted on for one thing, for certain. She is GOING to be a witch. We all have a go-to costume if we can't get inspired! I wish I'd been able to get the Halloween Haunt 2011 doll!! I love both the reproduction dolls and the Silkstone dolls. I'm dressing in a handmade pirate costume. Faux leather leggings, a gold blouse, a HEAVY red coat (think Disney's Captain Hook), and a corset I bought from Damsel In This Dress. A shitload of belts, sashes, and scarves, and a hat which I also made. I just need to reshape it. Granted - we have never had one solitary trick-or-treater at this house, and I have no plans. (and even if I did, I've been sick for nearly two weeks so I'd probably have to cancel) So, dressing up to stay in and watch some bad horror movies and eat a whole case of Reese's , KitKats, and Hershey bars.

[@SodaVampire]

With the amount of careers and hobbies Barbie has had you’d think she’d have the creativity to deviate from the generic witch hat and party dress combo more than a few times. 😅

[@KrazyCatQueen]

Oh, I really liked that mistress of the manor barbie, but purple is my favorite color and I love fancy gowns so. Seeing zombie bride barbie makes me wonder how many wedding themed barbies there are. I love wedding junk. I’d watch a tier list of those, but I also feel like you may suffer through another case of Same Shit Different Day with those.

[@fableagain]

Oh my goshhhh you give ghost tours as your job?? That's so freaking cool!!!

[@oddmnemosyne2869]

Your outfit in this video is so cute! Also I'm 100% the person keeping Mary Janes in business (I do not give them out but I do always go out of my way to find some every year for myself 🪦) Pumpkin Kelly is a QUEEN. Halloween Princess Barbie and Boo-tiful Halloween Barbie are so fabulous? I really fell out of love with Barbie in the aughts but if I had seen either of these on shelves I definitely would have wanted them. It kills me how many years in a row of witch costumes it took for Barbie to finally nail it. I'm also kind of shocked that there aren't more vampire costumes, that seems like it would be such an easy way to switch things up. For Halloween this year my partner and I are both going out as well-dressed werewolves, and my kid has invented his own scary character inspired by some of his favorite horror games like FNAF.

[@susieboo22]

I absolutely love your ranking videos!! I'd love to see you make a list of your favorite collector's Barbies.

[@Man-wolf-]

Scary/darker/halloween aesthetic fashion dolls are my weakness so honestly i just KNOW at least one of these is gonna become my dream doll lol Edit: forgot to mention but im going to dress up as scp-076 “abel”! Aka the dude i named my youtube after lol

[@asheyknees719]

one of my favorite channels making a video regarding one of my favorite seasons? time to buckle down for the next 24 minutes 🙏

[@yque4733]

I was hoping to see the Bob Mackie Countess Dracula Barbie on your list, but it's a great list. THANK YOU for not roping any of the Dia de Muertos dolls.

[@squidboitoys]

Doing ghost Tours sounds like a really fun job tbh

[@OARFISHED]

I love your shirt and choker! :) Also I'm pretty sure I have the doll at 6:32, the dress looks so familiar and I can almost picture the texture in my mind, I think the black swirls are made of velvet material

[@stabberella28]

Secret spells Barbie!! She is IT✨ Also I feel similarly about bit o honey as you do about Mary Jane- both are a crime, and deserve to go straight to the trash 😌

[@percyperanamus7432]

the playline ghost outranks the collector ghost for me too. i think the hair is more interesting, the dress silhouette and prints/pattern is more interesting, makeup is more interesting... i think the chains on the collector's version kind of clash. like maybe a different metal type or a translucent plastic to help sell she's a see through ghost. maybe even parts of her body in see through plastic.. idk but the playline ghost eats her up

[@clairep3688]

I love every single one of these I don’t even care if nobody agrees with me, if I was doing a tier list of these they’d all be top. Ahhh I love Halloween dolls they’re so flipping cute

[@losingmymind611]

8:03 I love when these videos absolutely assault me with sudden nostalgia. I still own the little cat for this Barbie but didn't remember owning her until watching this and now I swear I can recall the fabric of the dress and fuzzy cuffs.

[@maddy4960]

I've watched this a couple times and always felt that the secret spells barbie looked familiar but I don't remember any of those clothing pieces. Then I realized I actually had the Christie from that line when I was little! The whole line is great but I think the blue and purple looks really pretty on Christie in particular (I might be a little biased lol)

[@Candy_marie_rotten]

Your outfit (choker and sweater) is to die for! Love love love this purple combo! The bear on your shirt is gorgeous! We need a doll of darling dollz! ❤️😘

[@SomeonesGOFFIKUNCLE]

I always thought of a barbie meets monster high idea and with the two live action movies existing, my point is furthered. As I watch, I realize that barbie would make a really good witch and especially Secret Spells barbie.

[@こっちぴょん]

I NEED that purple choker 😭

[@luckyleprechaun-e7h]

marvelous. I love your channel. I am a middle-aged gay man. I don't collect dolls. I am the opposite of hip, young or anything of this sort. I have no discernible aesthetic of note. I am so out of the loop that I still haven't even seen the BARBIE movie. yet I find your channel completely charming. very funny. you literally made me LOL (to talk like the kids did back in 2011. when I was just old. not yet, decrepit-ah. those were the days... ) several times. so many things. and I find your channel educational. I had NO IDEA that halloween Barbie could take me so many places. amazing. keep up the wonderful work. thanks for posting.

[@beavee1213]

Honestly, your taste in elegant gowns, as well as pink and glittery clothes is incredibly based- also I’m gonna be draculaura for Halloween!!! Very excited ❤

[@crowfrog5745]

I absolutely love the ghost collector’s doll. Definitely on my list of holy grail Barbie’s to collect. This is my first Halloween away from home so I thought I’d go big and dress as draculaura, just have to convince my friends to go as Frankie and clawdeen!

[@soyfloral]

I can't imagine current barbie in some of these. I'm so used to the lack of flavor that seeing some of these was like...wow. I'm looking respectfully, queen

[@BearElliottWorld]

Great list!! One of my Halloween Barbie favorites was the Fortune Teller from 2003.

[@BrightDecision]

Always love to see content from you dawling. I'll never not click on a yass or pass / ranking. Edit: Holy whiplash, the collector's dolls were giving me chills and then back absolutely killing the buzz.

Great, I know have a burning desire for the entire haunted beauties collection. My wallet is screaming in fear.

[@markgoldby6502]

I kinda love low effort Halloween Star and Halloween Hip because in my world Barbie is an alternative mid 00s teen. Sweetheart Halloween is the Hot Topic tie in I didn't know i needed. Great list!

[@VinnyCM64]

I loved Halloween Barbies so much. I wasn't a huge fan of pink when I was little, plus I loved like spooky things. These Barbies were just my fav, even if they were silly/tacky.

[@20bluebug]

I just love these colorful Halloween Barbies!

[@Fluffymonkeyem]

Halloween Party! I got that Halloween 1998 when I was 7. I played with those often. *so* nostalgic.

[@ckind2098]

Oooh i haven't seen those 2012 collector ones before, i love them!

[@TEO.187]

I loved Barbie Sweetheart Halloween's outfit so much i immediately looked on ebay for an open one to harvest for Draculaura but tragically theyre all NIB

[@jtaylor7970]

Omg I had the 2006 trick or chic Barbie 🥰. You should definitely rate the Valentines Barbie’s

[@Larissa-zt6nr]

honestly the pink witch looks are so garish and unwitch like to me i cant stand them.... but i loved the halloween star look, the corset looking crop top is very amy brown and etc fairy aesthetic that was going on the 90s and 2000s it really hits the spot for me

[@FrostySparkles]

I love the halloween party 2007 barbie! Shes giving such y2k energy its amazing, her outfit also reminds me of the bratz fashion pixiez movie, the skirt over jeans was a big thing back then

Omg yess Halloween Barbie were so nice back in y2k era

[@cornerspider2477]
