UPDATE: July 16, 2021, 11:39 a.m. ET: At the time of this update, the classic 12-foot skeleton was available on the Home Depot website. The Inferno Pumpkin Skeleton was out of stock.

America's leading source of autumnal serotonin is coming back.

Home Depot revealed its Halloween and holiday décor collections on Wednesday, July 14, including — thank god — a restock of the fabled 12-foot giant skeleton with LCD LifeEyes that shook the internet to its bones last year. The skeleton will be in stock on Home Depot's website on July 16, according to the retailer, and will cost $299, the same amount it did in 2020.

If you happen to have an extra $50 in your "12-foot skeleton" budget, Home Depot will also be selling an upgraded, significantly weirder version of the 12-foot skeleton. The "Inferno Pumpkin Skeleton" has a pumpkin for a head, a "refined hourglass figure," and flames (not real flames) in his ribcage, which we can only assume is due to severe acid reflux.

Don't have room for an enormous skeleton in your yard this season? There are plenty of smaller, equally weird products available, including spooky rotten pumpkins, assorted gravestones, plenty of inflatables, and more. Our personal favorite? The tactfully named Bone Throne, a spooky and stately piece of furniture that should be as much fun to sit in as it is to name-drop.

Check them all out on Home Depot's website on July 16.
