Halloween got you in the mood for monsters? These soft stuffed ones come from The Monster Factory, and they're a huge new hit in Canada and the U.S.
The Monster Factory was started by three friends in Toronto, Canada and has skyrocketed to stardom quickly since then. At first glance these furry things might remind you of the ever-popular Ugly Dolls which frequent celeb baby cribs everywhere, but the monsters of Monster Factory bring us something altogether different--lots of laughs...for adults!
Pickley the Pickle began Monster Factory, and although he's food and not really a monster, his quirky persona quickly became a fave of the public. Check this cute YouTube clip of him talking about relationships.
