Halloween decorations for sale already!

The Halloween wars are heating up already. Yes, the country just celebrated the Fourth of July less than two weeks ago but Home Depot has already dropped its Halloween home décor online — including its viral $299, 12-foot skeleton that’s been a seasonal sensation since 2020. The towering and terrifying figure, officially named “12-foot Giant Skeleton with LifeEyes LCD Eyes,” stands 12 feet tall and weighs about 60 pounds. It has animated LCD eyes that “create a creepy effect,” per the product description. The skeleton became a social media sensation during the first year of the pandemic and has sold out well before October 31 during the past two Halloween seasons.
