Where to Get the 12-Foot Giant Skeleton for Halloween

Home Depot's iconic 12-foot-tall skeleton is back just in time for the 2023 Halloween season!

Though the outdoor 12-foot tall skeleton decoration is currently out of stock at Home Depot, there is still hope for those wishing to snag the spooky, larger-than-life decor.

The behemoth Halloween decoration debuted in 2020, though it sold out quickly. In 2021, Home Depot added a similar skeleton featuring a pumpkin head which also sold out.

Unsurprisingly, both products sold out again this year during their initial release.

Below, here's everything we know about how to get Home Depot's 12-foot giant skeleton for 2023.

Where to Get the 12-Foot Giant Skeleton for Your Front Yard:

The 12-foot giant skeleton, unofficially nicknamed "Skelly," is exclusively sold at Home Depot. However, shorter skeleton dupes have popped up at competing stores.

How Much Is the 12-Foot Giant Skeleton?

"Skelly" currently retails for $299 at Home Depot with a limit of one per customer. Third-party websites such as eBay and Mercari have the product listed for as much as $1,000 due to high demand.

Can the 12-Foot Giant Skeleton Go Indoors?

Although Home Depot lists the skeleton as an "outdoor" decoration, some people with larger spaces are able to put their skeleton indoors. Another option is to pose the skeleton sitting down, which makes it roughly between 6- to 8-feet tall depending on its position.

2021 12-Foot Skeleton vs. 2022 12-Foot Skeleton Compared:

The 2022 12-foot giant skeleton appears to be unchanged from its 2021 counterpart. The skeleton features LifeEyes, which light up and move around. Currently, "Skelly" has a 4.8-star rating with over 500 reviews on the Home Depot website.

Home Accents released a similar skeleton, called the Pumpkin Inferno, in 2021.

Is the 12-Foot Giant Skeleton Sold Out?

Officially, the skeleton is sold out at Home Depot online. However, the retail giant has mentioned they might restock it at select stores leading up to Halloween. Customers can also subscribe to the store's email notification list for restock alerts.

If you're looking for an in-stock large Halloween item, you might consider Home Depot's 12-foot tall hovering witch, 8-foot long spider or 9.5-foot tall werewolf.

Will Home Depot Restock Its 12-Foot Giant Skeleton?

According to numerous reports and Home Depot officials, there is no official restock date for the 12-foot giant skeleton. However, you can sign up for restocking alerts via the Home Depot website, as well as check with your local Home Depot.
