Top5s, a UK-based YouTube channel dedicated to sharing all things creepy and mysterious, collaborated with The Line Up to launch a special Creepy Crate just in time for Halloween.
Every other month, The Lineup's own Creepy Crate subscription box service shares everything from apparel to accessories, artwork, candies and books with a focus on the macabre. As October is one of the biggest months of the year for Top5s to share creepy content with its 2.7 million subscribers, what's inside of the special October/November Creepy Crate has been curated as a Top5s-themed box.
The box contains either a hardcover copy of Dracul by Dacre Stoker and J. D. Barker or Devil's Day by Andrew Michael Hurley, as well as plenty of other spooky surprises.
