Greet Trick-or-Treaters with Life-Size Halloween Characters
DALLAS, Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Handing out Halloween candy just got more fun! Make your home a neighborhood favorite with 3-ft tall, animated Halloween characters from Gemmy. Approachable in size and easy to display, each character combines eye-catching motion, sound effects, and a built-in candy bowl to create a functional, interactive surprise that delights trick-or-treaters.
Customers can choose from two styles, a Mummy and a Pumpkin Skeleton, or display both for double the excitement. Serving as décor and candy holders, these pieces make standout additions to porches, entryways, or indoor displays.
Mummy: A Fright That Springs to Life
Wrapped in tattered, distressed gauze, this mummy is ready to take trick-or-treaters by surprise. Starting with its head lowered, it suddenly pops up with glowing red eyes when activated by sound or motion. Spooky spoken phrases add to the experience, creating a memorable Halloween moment that blends classic frights with practical candy-serving convenience.
Pumpkin Skeleton: A Trick with Every Treat
Spook unsuspecting guests with the Pumpkin Skeleton, cloaked in black with a creepy jack-o’-lantern head and exposed skeleton body. Its rotting smile and glowing eyes come alive as its head turns side to side and eerie phrases fill the air. As trick-or-treaters reach into the candy bowl, its hand drops toward the treats to deliver a well-timed scare – if they dare.
Bring an extra shock factor to trick-or-treat night with 3-ft tall animatronic Halloween characters that combine eerie ambiance with candy-serving functionality. Designed by Gemmy and available at The Home Depot, these spooky figures are ideal for decorators looking for a fresh way to welcome neighbors, ghouls, and goblins alike.
