How do you make a mug seem really creepy? Well, yes, we suppose you could cover it with photos of Richard Simmons and Donald Trump, but we were thinking of something a little more sinister. Enter the gloriously macabre Skull Mug.

This quality ceramic mug is the ideal drinking vessel for Halloween parties, horror-themed get-togethers, piratical soirees and death metal sing-alongs, as it resembles a human skull. It's even got a handle that resembles interlocking bones. Yikes!

Drink your favorite demonic brew from this gruesome cranium and you'll be in good company: Lord Byron used a skull as a drinking vessel and many ancient warriors drank from chalices fashioned from enemy braincases. All of which has little relevance to your daily coffee breaks but it's worth remembering when the lights are out and wisps of steam start billowing from your cocoa. Eek!

Talking of demonic brews, the Skull Mug is perfect for holding drinks with a bit of oomph. Why not fill it with your favorite potent libation and pass it around the party as a kind of chalice of doom? You could even create you own mystic brews and sip 'em from your Skull Mug while conducting crackpot experiments in your subterranean laboratory. Failing that you can fill it with tea and dunk a few Nilla Wafers.
