On Friday, the home improvement retailer brought back its popular 12-foot skeleton, along with other Halloween decor. He said he wants to create the kind of experience he enjoyed when he dressed up in costumes and trick-or-treated as a kid in upstate New York. The best houses, he recalled, gave out full-sized candy bars or had extra spooky decorations. On top of being, you know, massive, this guy is set apart by his animated eyes, which are brought to life by LCD screens. The decoration now comes with a power cord instead of a battery, meaning you don’t have to worry about keeping him charged all night long.

This year, Skelly brings oversized thrills to the party along with a brand-new cast of characters, such as the 12-Foot Hovering Witch and the 10-Foot Towering Werewolf. Home Depot's 12-foot-skeleton will hit brick-and-mortar store shelves from late August to early September. The giant skeleton isn’t the only huge offering from Home Depot this Halloween. Why so many people identify with this creature – enough to snatch up entire inventories in hours and spawn a whole skeleton black market in the process – is a question best left to a higher power.

This year, the retailer debuted a giant werewolf figure that, at 9-and-a-half feet tall, looks like it belongs on the 18th hole of the best putt-putt golf course in town. Jill Troutman of Memphis, Tennessee, searched for two years before securing her Skelly.
