Folk Horror Shirts, Hats & Beach Towels

Nine original designs from the ScaryTraditions folklore series: the Wendigo, the banshee, the djinn, the salt circle and the sea serpents of old maps. Black shirts, dad hats and beach towels, sold on eBay.

Every design is an original drawing, not a movie tie-in. Each one starts from a real tradition, so the story behind it is on the page, not invented for the print. Shipping is free in the US and US $12.99 to the rest of the world.

How print on demand works. Nothing sits in a warehouse. When you order, your item is printed in the USA, then packed and shipped, usually within one to two weeks. That is why we can offer small runs of odd designs. Want to know more? Read how print on demand works and how to choose a shirt, hat or towel. The same method runs our sister print shop for restaurants and hotels.

The folklore behind the designs

Two of the designs have their own write-ups: what the Wendigo antler skull means (and what the oldest accounts do not say), and salt circles and protective marks in European folk practice. For the books and audiobooks behind the series, see the ScaryTraditions shop.
