When it comes to giving gifts, you know your family best! If you enjoy gifting small stocking stuffers in addition to your regular holiday gifts, you're still trying to give everyone something that they would love or find useful. For some people, that may be their favorite lip gloss or fragrance, but we're leaning into our geeky side here. Does your dad really like Star Wars? Maybe your mom watches too many horror movies. We'll share some of our favorite stocking stuffer ideas with a fun, fandom twist!
1. Stocking Stuffers for Gamers

When it comes to geeky stocking stuffers, we're looking for fun and functional, along with cheaper gifts at a smaller size. (They're getting the big present on Christmas, and you don't want the Christmas stockings falling off the mantle!) Gamers may appreciate a new desk mat, mouse pad, or perhaps some cool coasters or a can koozie for their beverage of choice. Even something as simple as a pair of socks or a small figurine can make a great stocking stuffer for her or him.
2. Disney Stocking Stuffers

Do you know a Disney pin collector? Your stocking stuffer idea is most of the way there already! Of course, tons of other small Disney gifts are perfectly stocking-sized. Socks, boxers, and stocking caps make great stocking stuffers because they're so useful, but don't be shy about something fun, too. Miniature blind box figures or themed Rubik's cubes make great additions to any Disney fan's workspace. Oh boy!
3. Star Wars Stocking Stuffers

Considering the wide range of stocking stuffer gift options, Star Wars fans are tons of fun to shop for. You can easily fit a lightsaber, an action figure, or a new keychain in their stocking. However, there are so many interesting Star Wars pet items, portable games, and accessories too. The best part is that you can easily find Star Wars stocking stuffers under $10, so you can get them that giant, expensive LEGO set they asked for later.
4. Harry Potter Stocking Stuffers

Create a little Christmas magic with these Harry Potter stocking stuffer ideas! You can find some $5 stocking stuffer ideas, such as small pins or a pair of socks, or something a little more expensive, like jewelry or a figurine. However, don't be afraid to lean more into their nerdy side! If you want a fun stocking stuffer idea for kids, get a light-up wand toy so they can practice their spells. They'll be ready to attend Hogwarts in no time!
5. Anime Stocking Stuffers
| MHA Keyboard Mat | Demon Slayer Fox Mask Socks | Naruto Akatsuki Hat | Naruto Charm Keychain |
When you're looking for gifts for an anime fan, you'll probably want to consider some of their favorite shows or anime movies. (After all, there's a LOT of ground to cover as far as anime is concerned.) Do they enjoy classic anime series such as Sailor Moon, Bleach, and Naruto? Or do they prefer to keep up with newer series like Demon Slayer and My Hero Academia? Once you have their favorites nailed down, finding inexpensive gifts to fill their stocking should be easy!
6. Marvel Stocking Stuffers

After the Marvel boom, it's much easier to find gifts of all kinds for Marvel fans. Iron-on patches are a cheap and fun way to level up their gear, and there are so many graphic shirts for their favorite characters and Marvel superhero teams. Even your pup can get in on the run with adorable Marvel dog toys! Of course, you know your Marvel fan best, so get them a gift that shows that you love them 3000.
7. DC Comics Stocking Stuffers

If you haven't had your fill of superhero stocking stuffers, you may want to check out what's in store for DC Comics. You can find amazing Batman stocking stuffers, Wonder Woman stocking stuffers, or any other heroes that appeal to you. These are all stocking stuffer ideas under $20, from reusable tote bags to die-cast collectible cars and socks! Of course, our favorite is probably the Batman multi-tool, which is incredibly handy to have on hand while being appropriately nerdy for a DC Comics fan.
8. Horror Stocking Stuffers

Do you know someone who watches horror movies all year long? (For some people, they're not strictly for October viewing!) They would probably freak out if you got them a few horror-themed stocking stuffers. We love the vintage-look horror action figures by ReAction, and a tiny Freddy Krueger with a classic car is one cool collectible. Of course, small apparel and accessories that you can fit into a stocking are great ideas, too, not to mention useful for every day!
Are you ready for the Christmas season? There's so much to prepare for, so it's nice to get your holiday shopping out of the way. What are some of your favorite stocking stuffer gifts?
