She doesn't smile. She doesn't run. She doesn't do enthusiasm. And she is, somehow, the most compelling person in any room she walks into.
Wednesday Addams has been a cultural fixture since Charles Addams first drew her for The New Yorker in 1938 — a pale, pigtailed, entirely self-possessed child who found the macabre reasonable and cheerfulness deeply suspicious. She passed through television, animation and the Addams Family films with her reputation for deadpan menace completely intact. And then Netflix's Wednesday arrived in 2022, gave her a school, a mystery, a psychic ability she regards as an inconvenience, and Jenna Ortega's extraordinary performance — and produced one of the most watched series in streaming history. The dance scene alone broke the internet. Wednesday herself would find this mildly irritating. We find it entirely justified.
What makes Wednesday endure across every iteration is the same quality that made her irresistible from the very beginning: she is completely, uncompromisingly herself. In a world that rewards performance and conformity, Wednesday simply declines. She has better things to do. Usually involving a crossbow or a manuscript about a serial killer.
Our Wednesday collection brings together officially licensed figures, apparel, accessories and gifts — from Funko Pops and enamel pins to mugs, bags and homeware for fans of the Addams family's most singular member. For the Wednesday in your life who will receive this gift without smiling and absolutely mean it as a compliment.
Normal is a setting on a washing machine. Wednesday has never owned one.
