The Secret Creepers - Critters line of merchandise consists of pet-themed toys. Along with its partner line, Secret Creepers - Pets, it marks a revival in specifically pet-themed merchandise after a hiatus that started in Early 2011. Both lines and the Crypt are marketed alongside the lone 'Signature' Jane Boolittle doll, but she is not part of either line herself. There are currently seven toys released in the line, divided in two waves. The first contains Azura, Hissette, Captain Penny, Count Fabulous, and Neptuna, and was released in Early January, 2014. The second wave followed in Early August, 2014 and comprises Chewlian and Dustin.
Secret Creepers - Critters toys all work differently around the theme of creating and storing secret messages. Count Fabulous and Neptuna come with an invisible ink pen along with paper. Once a message is written with these tools, Count Fabulous provides light when his bow is pressed on that reveals the text. Neptuna's scalp can be removed to reveal an internal ink pen that can make the text visible by writing over it. Captain Penny, Azura, Hissette, Dustin, and Chewlian come with a basic pen and paper. Paper placed into Captain Penny's backpack gets manipulated into his belly by rolling him forward. By lifting his arm, the belly can be opened to retrieve the paper. Azura and Hissette both come with a scroll the paper has to be wrapped around. The scroll can be stored in either Azura's back by pressing his back or in Hissette's belly by opening her mouth.
Fiction[]
Though all fiction featuring the pets can be said to promote Secret Creepers - Critters, it's the Volume 4 webisodes, particularly those centering on Jane Boolittle and the Creature Creepers Adventures ones, that are officially aligned with the Secret Creepers - Critters toys.
As well, the 2014 web game Secret Creepers Adventures specifically exists to tie in with the Secret Creepers - Critters toys. In The Ghoul-It-Yourself Book, a shout-out to the line is made when Hissette throws up a message from Cleo she's come to deliver.
