Anything else you should know about Halloween lawn decor this year?

Yes, this year, Lowe’s is apparently taking aim at Home Depot’s viral 12-Foot SKELLY by introducing a 15-Foot Talking Lighted Skeleton Watcher Motion Activated Animatronic, which it says is the “tallest Halloween animatronic on the market.”

Priced at $429, the figure “holds his severed skull high, scanning the scene with LED eyes blazing like a watchtower beacon sweeping across your haunt,” turns “eerily from side to side” and “commands attention with chilling phrases, spooky sounds, and sweeping LED eyes that keep your haunt under constant surveillance.”

So many giant skeletons, so little lawn space.
