Vanthylit Halloween Tree, 2FT Spooky Black Tree Battery Operated with 24 Purple Lights and 8 Bats, Halloween Decorations Indoor Lighted Table Centerpiece with Timer for Mantel Office Haliday Decor

I have wanted a light up spooky tree for years but the ones in the store are either cheaply made or cheap looking. A lot of store models have weird plastic cut-out branches. Other models are wire like this, but the coating is very thin and flaky.This thing is amazing. I wish they made bigger ones. The color of the LED is a low temp purple that gives it a ghostly coldness like a spectral light. It has a black glitter coat that catches the purple nicely in the dark. The coating rubs off a bit while arranging the branches, but once you have it set, it stops shedding. I didn't care for the bat ornaments. They are actually very well made, but a bit too big for the tree and distract from how great it looks undecorated, in my opinion.Finally, I cannot stress this enough, it has the perfect number of branches. Store trees always look so sparse. It's supposed to be a spooky tree, not a spooky stick. On the other end, you have christmas trees painted black to look spooky; ridiculous. This thing is just like the photos. Do yourself a favor and google image search spooky or dead trees, pay attention to how the branches recurve, then replicate it.

Okay, first thing is first. When you open the box this lovely little tree comes in, it will have no shape other than the upper branches being turned downward. This is strictly for packaging and the branches are completely malleable. You can choose for yourself the shape and direction of the branches. I also want to notes it will be easier, much easier, to remove the tree from the manufactures box from the bottom of the box. Once, out of the box, it took me about 20 minutes to mold the branches and hang my Nightmare Before Christmas ornaments. Yes, as with a previous review, this tree is flocked with black glitter and yes, it does get everywhere while you are working with the branches, but once all that is completed, the tree does not shed anymore. The base is solid giving a lot more stability than a previous tree I have. I have had no issues whatsoever with the on/off switch at the back of the base. Changing the batteries (located under the base of the tree) may be an issue since my tree is fully decorated.As as side note, I absolutely love the bats!!! They are a perfect addition to my theme that I did not have with a previous tree.If you love Halloween and need a tree to decorate, this one is definitely the one!

I really wanted to love this spooky tree after reading all it's reviews...but it's a miss. First off the day it was to be delivered the Amazon guys phone GPS was acting up so it said on my end handed to customer...uh no...? Thankfully I was leaving just then and caught him a little ways down the road with my packages still in the truck! I get it it wasn't his fault but that was just a sign lol. The box it canes in was sticky (ew) and the sticky was covered in dust so it's been sitting...AWHILE. When I pulled it out I was disappointed in the number of lights and lack there of but thought hey maybe it'll look good once I put the batteries in. The battery holder is a cheap cheap cheap POS. I had to fight with it and brand new batteries for it to finally turn on. The lights are more blue then purple and the tress it's self is sooo cheapy made I could probably get a better product if not the same at my local dollar tree! But it's here and up I mean they could of at least glued those three tiny ass figurines they send with it but that would cost them an extra cent too much. The only thing sturdy on this tree is the bats! Save your money and look up the weeping willow in purple I bought that one as well and really enjoy it.

Like: the tree was perfect atop a filing cabinet. The purple LED lights worked well against the black tree branches. The tree stood on its own. Item included several metal bats to hang in the tree. Would recommend.Dislike: The shipping box should be longer so the branches aren't bent. Eventually they will break being bent so many times.

Needs more bats! (LOL)

This adds a great spooky tone to my living room. It's really easy to assemble and the timer function is nice. When setting it up, be aware that glitter may fall off the tree as you're unfolding the branches so have a vacuum handy. After that, there's no mess

The perfect addition for Halloween. Beautiful, sparkly and love the lights. The bats are a nice added bonus. The bats are good quality flat metal.

For the price, this little guy exceeded my expectations. It's a lot of fun to decorate this little tree and the lights give off a warm glow. I added the sticky bats on the wall which I also got on Amazon.
