Home Depot is kicking off the Halloween season early this year with a special "Halfway to Halloween" sale. The sale features a collection of new and terrifying decorations guaranteed to spook customers.
This is the earliest the company has ever offered a limited release of its most spine-chilling decorations.
Home Depot's Halloween Hit: Skeletons and Monsters
Home Depot is celebrating Halloween early by giving a noteworthy upgrade to its famous 12-foot skeleton and introducing some eerie new friends. Known as "Skelly," the $299 skeleton now features new LCD Life Eyes with various lighting effects.
This decoration is a hot item and sells out almost every year. It was even snapped up during a special summer promotion last year. For those looking to add to their spooky scene, Home Depot is offering the 5-by-7-foot Skelly Dog for just $199.
A new, taller version called the 12.5-foot Inferno Deadwood Skeleton is also available for $379. If you're not into skeletons, the retailer has added a 7-foot-tall animated Frankenstein. This towering creature has blinking, glowing eyes, and moving arms, all set to give your guests a fright for $279.
Home Depot limits purchases to one animatronic per order so everyone can buy these popular decorations. Home is in extremely high demand.
Home Depot is releasing its popular "Skelly" skeleton decoration earlier than usual this year. "To make sure Halloween enthusiasts have several opportunities to buy this cultural sensation, we're launching Skelly earlier than ever," Home Depot stated to Axios.
While the exact time for the product release hasn't been disclosed, Home Depot advises fans to keep an eye on its social media pages and website early Thursday morning for updates.

Home Depot Decor in Limited Supply
A spokesperson for Home Depot confirmed to The U.S. Sun that their latest Halloween products are available in "limited quantities" and will only be available while supplies last.
"We encourage customers to stay alert for more announcements throughout the year for additional chances to buy," the spokesperson added.
The sale announcement sparked a wave of excitement among shoppers, evident from the enthusiastic comments on the store's social media pages. "Frankie, come home to me!" exclaimed one eager customer hoping to snag an animatronic.
Another shopper expressed relief at finally purchasing a long-awaited item: "Finally, I can buy Skelly. I've waited three years for this!" "Give me Skelly dog!" demanded another.
Last year, Home Depot displayed its Halloween merchandise by Labor Day, showcasing an early start to the season.
Home Depot's lineup includes Jabberin Jack, a 5-foot-tall inflatable talking pumpkin priced at just $99. This pumpkin entertains with over 70 minutes of animations, and it can sing, talk, and tell jokes.
The illusion of the pumpkin speaking is created by a particular projector inside.
Another eerie item is described as the "foulest of all the reapers." This creature captivates onlookers by holding a child in the air and declaring, "Look at me, just as all the others have.
Now that I have you, your soul will be mine forever!"
Accompanied by a booming, evil laugh, the reaper appears to inhale the child's spirit as green lights and mist swirl around, adding to the chilling spectacle.
