"It is said that the Spirits of buried men Oft come to this wicked world again." (Isaac McLellan) Beneath a full moon, three guests sit at a candlelit picnic surrounded by glowing jack-o'-lanterns, perfectly unbothered by the skeletons dancing around the mausoleum nearby. Black swans glide across a still pond, and the autumn trees glow gold against a starry sky.

Spirits of the Dead Mini is Janet Hill at her most hauntingly beautiful: eerie, elegant, and entirely enchanting. At 100 pieces, this mini puzzle is a quick and satisfying solve, a perfect way to spend a spooky October evening. Janet Hill's signature rich palette and painterly detail shine even at this scale, making it a treat for fans of her work and Halloween enthusiasts alike.

A wonderful gift for Halloween lovers, Janet Hill collectors, and anyone who believes that October deserves its own puzzle.

Frequently Asked Questions

What comes in a puzzle advent calendar?

Each calendar holds 24 mini jigsaw puzzles, one for every day from December 1 to December 24. Every puzzle has 100 pieces and comes in its own numbered box, all tucked inside a decorative 13" × 13.75" outer box.

How big is each finished puzzle?

Each mini is 100 pieces and small enough to solve on a coffee table or tray. Finished sizes by calendar:

Janet Hill Advent Calendar: 7" × 9"
Loré Pemberton Advent Calendar: 7" × 9" and 8" × 8"
Harry Potter Advent Calendar: 9" × 7" and 7" × 9"
New Yorker Advent Calendar 2nd Edition: 7" × 9"

How long does each puzzle take?

Each 100-piece mini takes about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on your skill level. Just right for a daily puzzle break.

Will the pieces from different days get mixed up?

No. Each puzzle comes in its own small box, so the pieces stay separate until you open that day.

Do I have to open the puzzles in order?

The boxes are numbered 1 to 24, but there are no rules. Open one a day, catch up on a few at once, or save the whole set for a long winter weekend.

Is it too late to start after December 1?

Not at all. Start whenever it arrives and catch up on the days you missed, or treat it as 24 small puzzles to enjoy all winter.

What can I do with the puzzles after Christmas?

Keep them. Each mini goes back in its box, so you can puzzle them again next year, frame a favorite, or tuck a few into stockings and gift bags.

Some customers save their calendar and complete it any time of year. It's a perfect way to focus, challenge yourself and unplug, whatever the season.

Is a puzzle advent calendar a good gift?

Yes. It lasts all December, gives a calm few minutes every day, and leaves the recipient with 24 puzzles to keep, unlike chocolate or beauty samples that are gone in a moment.

Because the puzzles can be done again and again, the gift lasts for years and can become a holiday tradition of its own.
