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…

Grave Solution

Hands down, the best tabletop animated Halloween prop available this year can be found at The Home Depot.  (A similar prop is also available at CVS).  Behold, the rising Grim Reaper and tombstone!

Rising Grim Reaper Tabletop Animation

This beautiful, animated table-top piece is reminiscent of the old Telco Motion-ettes and the 1990s Gemmy line of animated figures.  It features a Grim Reaper that pops up from inside a gravestone.  When you push the button or make a loud sound, the Reaper will rise from the grave and utter eerie phrases of doom, accompanied by a soundtrack of haunting music and crashing thunder.  Not only do the Reaper’s eyes illuminate, the tombstone also puts on a fairly elaborate light show, probably intended to be lightning to go with all of that scary thunder.

There are also some other great items out there that we feel you have to know about, including a set of Wilton candy cake decorations featuring Frankenstein, the Bride, and their family.  These can be purchased at Target.  Another must-mention item is the Halloween party plate and napkin set that is available for purchase at Rite Aid.  Check ’em out!
