Howling Home Depot: Werewolf Motionette

Home Depot always has a fang-tastic selection of Halloween decorations, and this year is no exception.  But, perhaps, the greatest offering this year is a new spin on a blast from the past.  For the past few years, Home Depot has carried a line of 3-foot animated Halloween figures, very similar to the Telco Motionettes of Halloween.  While the designs have always been fun and creative, one piece really stands out this year…  The Werewolf!

This figure has an awesome design, great movement, and an eerie howling soundtrack.  Its fierce lighted eyes and moving jaw really make this a one-of-a-kind piece, earning it the Big Scare’s “Best Halloween Decoration of 2017” award.  Check out the action shots of the figure below and tell us what you have found in stores that has you excited…

Haunted HomeGoods

One of the best retailers to find menacing merchandise is HomeGoods, part of the TJX chain of stores which also includes TJ Maxx and Marhsall’s.  This year, HomeGoods has a few items that will be sure to satisfy even the most savvy of home haunters.

First is this fantastic vintage-style Halloween bucket fashioned in the shape of a black cat’s head.  This fiendish feline is extremely reminiscent of the papier mache Halloween treat pails from the early 20th century.

In addition to some vintage-style decor, HomeGoods is also offering a  variety of boo-tiful busts and statues.  One of the most popular is the Headless Horseman statue.  This year, the Horseman comes in two colors (silver or black) as well as two sizes.  The smaller one is perfect for a book shelf, while the larger one would be great for an entryway.

Michael’s Monstrous Merchandise

As usual, one of the coolest places to find petrifying products is at Michael’s Arts and Crafts.  This year, Michael’s continues with its Spooky Town line of haunted houses and village accessories from Lemax.

But Spooky Town isn’t the only musty must-have at Michael’s this year.  Check out this Witchy Woman Tabletop piece and the Raven candle holders.
