Tackling a spring cleaning to-do list? Go ahead and leave some of those cobwebs intact: According to The Home Depot, it's already time to start thinking about Halloween decor.
The home improvement retailer is celebrating the almost-halfway point to spooky season with a limited initial release of its 2024 Halloween collection, including an upgraded version of its iconic 12-foot skeleton and its new skeleton dog sidekick. Products will be available online starting Thursday, April 25 while supplies last.

If past restocks are any indication, product listings will likely go live around 6 to 7 a.m. ET.
The sale marks the second year in a row that The Home Depot has hosted a "Halfway to Halloween" event in April, and shoppers can expect to see an even bigger selection of products compared to its spring 2023 surprise drop.

"Skelly," as it's affectionately known to fans and admirers, will make its fourth coming with newly enhanced light-up eyes that have eight swappable settings but stay at its usual price of $299.
Skelly is joined by two new colossal companions this year — one being the aforementioned five-by-seven-foot Skeleton Dog ($199), a cadaverouscanine with a posable mouth and the same changeable LCD eyes. Its name is "Dawg" and it's Skelly's "best friend," per the description on its product page.

Shoppers can expect to encounter even more new Halloween props at The Home Depot later in the coming months, including a 7.5-foot animated plague doctor, a 10-foot haunted maple tree, a nine-foot headless horseman, a six-foot animatronic pirate named "Captain Cuts," and a six-foot card-playing skeleton called "Jack of Spades." The fate of the 12-foot, gourd-headed Inferno Pumpkin Skeleton that's been sold alongside Skelly since 2021 is still in limbo, but Home Depot's rep said more announcements are imminent.
Another online launch of The Home Depot's Halloween collection will likely happen sometime in July, as we've seen in past years, so save up accordingly.
Editor's note:A previous version of this story incorrectly listed the price of the 7-Foot Animated Frankenstein’s Monster as $249 in one mention. It actually retails for $279.
