Department 56 plans to put a spell on you when we celebrate the most infamous trio of diabolical witches - the Sanderson Sisters! The sisters are out of control as they plot to suck the lives out of children before sunrise. About Us: For 40 years, Department 56 has been creating holiday traditions passed down from generation to generation. The excitement of the holiday season comes home with intricately detailed villages from settings that inspire the imagination. Stroll through a small American town, enjoy a walk with Charles Dickens, or visit Santa in the North Pole. Our ornaments and figurines create even more opportunities to spread good wishes during the happiest time of the year.
