Vampirina Toys Review

My children are huge fans of the Disney Junior channel and one of their favourite shows on it is without a doubt Vampirina. The show launched late last year and follows the tale of Vee the Vampire and her family the Hauntleys as they move from Transylvania to Pennsylvania and open up a spooky B&B. The show celebrates friendship and difference and sends a great message to young viewers about the importance of these.

As the show has been such a hit with young viewers Flair toys have recently released a range of Vampirina toys that will appeal to both boys and girls. The range includes dolls, figures, playsets, instruments and accessories. We were recently sent a box full of the new toys to try them out and see what we thought.

We were sent



Vampirina Spookylele and Gloves RRP £22.99


This Spookylele (love that name) looks just like the one Vampirina has in the show and it even comes with some rather spooky looking gloves too. The Spookylele is a rather funky skull shape and if you press the buttons it plays the Vampirina theme tune, guitar riffs and whammy sounds as well as lighting up. Children will have great fun playing with it and us parents will be pleased to know it has an on/off switch. The only thing was the gloves are rather snug fitting and my 3-year-old couldn't fit them on his hands.

Vampirina Bat-tastic Talking Vee and Wolfie RRP £44.99

Vampirina doll and wolfie


This Vampirina doll is rather impressive standing at 30cm tall and she can stand on her own. She looks so like the Vampirina children know and love from the show, she is wearing her signature spook-tastic web-detailed dress, has her bat pigtails in her hair and she even has pop-up and light-up wings. If you press her necklace she will say fun phrases from the show and you can even put her into flying mode to hear fun sounds. She comes with her trusted pal Wolfie the dog, who doesn't do anything but he does make a good accessory for children to play with the doll with.

Hauntley's Mobile RRP £29.99

The Hanutleys car comes with a small Vee figure to play with, you can push this car around and press the button on the bonnet for lights, sounds and music. Not only is it a car though as you can turn it into a moonlit movie theatre by opening the boot and discovering the hidden movie screen, table and box of popcorn inside. My little boy loves playing with this and it is great for imaginative play.

I think that any Vampirina fan will enjoy these toys, my children certainly do. Flair also have Best Ghoul Girl figures (£9.99) a Fangtastic friend set of 10 characters of Vampirina, Oxana, Boris, Demi, Bridget, Nosy, Gregoria, Wolfie, Vampirina's case of the Battys and a backpack accessory (£29.99 for the set) and they have Rock 'n Ghoul Microphones (£6.99). All of these toys are available to buy now from all good toy stores.

  1. Toys that encourage creativity are brilliant. We have so many musical and art based toys in our house. I think it is so important to encourage the boys to express themselves through creativity.
