And here's a review by Mike Mozart from The Toy Channel on YouTube. Mike does a great job of reviewing the toy in action and of making you want to own the set.
Unfortunately, it is a vintage 1984 playset, which means it is retired, rare and expensive. What is it worth today? The price does vary and I have seen a new set sell for $399 but today's results are somewhat lower than that and, of course, you can find used sets for considerably less.

What an great addition to a Play-doh or Halloween-themed toy collection!
Finally, this set is perfect for anyone who works in the medical world.

What a fun Play-Doh set for Halloween. Back when my children were small and loved playing with Play-Doh, I had no idea there were Holiday-themed and specialty sets with accessories available. I have really enjoyed learning about them through your Play-Doh series of reviews.
It seems to me, Elf, that Play-Doh has missed the pumpkin. They don't have many Halloween-themed sets though they do sometimes release sets of Halloween-colored Play-Doh clay.
I’m amazed that people are willing to pay nearly $400 for a vintage Play-Doh set! But this one looks really cool for Halloween. I can imagine how much fun it would be to create these iconic monsters for Halloween decor.
