Hello Kitty's Sanrio has welcomed fall, and with it comes a new line of Halloween-friendly collectibles featuring some of the company's iconic mascots. With new Hello Kitty, Kuromi, My Melody, Cinnamoroll, and Chococat toys dressed in their spookiest outfits, fans of all things creepy to charming will find plenty to love in Sanrio's new plush line.
Part of Sanrio US's 2024 Halloween Shop via its official online store, the new release includes seven plush toys featuring Hello Kitty, Chococat, Cinnamoroll, and My Melody dressed in classic Halloween costumes. While most of the cast are seen cosplaying as adorable pumpkins, Hello Kitty, the star of the collection, also comes in the same pumpkin costume as well as an outfit depicting her as a black cat and a witch. The plushies range in height from 8-10 inches and are described as being super soft and fluffy in texture.

Notably, the Hello Kitty witch plush is a collaboration with Jazwares, a Florida-based company best known for its line of Squishmallows. This special edition is described as, “Don’t miss your chance to cause a cute scare with this super cute Hello Kitty witch plush! This 8-inch plush features Hello Kitty in a scary cute witch dress complete with a witch hat, adorable pumpkin bow, and a broom with a bow handle.”
Fans of Halloween-themed cuteness in general will be happy to know that these plushies aren't the only new products Sanrio has introduced for the upcoming holiday. The brand recently unveiled a special Halloween cookie stamp set, depicting Hello Kitty as a jack-o-lantern, a ghost, and a zombie. Earlier this year, Hello Kitty also got a collaboration with horror manga master Junji Ito, with brand new artwork revealed for a line of products based on Ito's popular Tomie series.
