If Tim Burton's classic Halloween movies like The Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride have taught me anything, it's that every humble abode is made infinitely better with the addition of a cute canine, even in the afterlife. And, though I thankfully haven't met my ghostly Zero just yet, these cute (and perhaps slightly intimidating) Halloween skeleton dogs are a good substitute for now.
After picking out a spooky new pup (or two, or three . . . you know how it goes with dogs), the only thing left to do is name your new skeletal family member. Personally, my vote always goes for "Bonez," but you do you, boo.
Fun Express French Bulldog Skeleton
I never thought I'd say this, but I want nothing more than to cuddle this Fun Express French Bulldog Skeleton ($22) ASAP.
Crazy Bonez Pouncing Skeleton Puppy
This Crazy Bonez Pouncing Skeleton Puppy ($35) is so lifelike, I can practically hear it barking for me to throw another bone.
Crazy Bonez Skeleton Dog
If you love a pup that's "bad to the bone," this Crazy Bonez Skeleton Dog ($15) is just the Halloween prop for you.
Hyde & Eek! Boutique Chihuahua Skeleton Halloween Decorative Prop
Target is officially home to two adorable pups: Bullseye, the bull terrier store mascot, and this Hyde & Eek! Boutique Chihuahua Skeleton Halloween Decorative Prop ($15), whom I will be adopting immediately.
Joyin Pose-N-Stay Puppy Skeleton
I know he's supposed to be intimidating, but this Joyin Pose-N-Stay Puppy Skeleton ($31) is just too cute to be afraid of. I'll risk an imaginary bite from those jaws for a quick scratch between his tiny ears any day.
Animated Howling Skeleton Wolf
If canine ancestors are more your thing, set this Animated Howling Skeleton Wolf ($80) up in your yard and watch while it howls at the moon.
Yunhany Direct Skeleton Dog Prop
There's something endearing about a pup that looks as rough as I do shortly after waking up — I mean, the dark eye circles, come on. That's why I love this Yunhany Direct Skeleton Dog Prop ($25) from Amazon, and also can't stop laughing at it.
Kitbonis Pre-Lit Skeleton Dog With Witch Hat
If the idea of a doe-eyed dachshund trick-or-treating as a skeleton witch is something you need to see happen immediately, do yourself a favor and invest in this Kitbonis Pre-Lit Skeleton Dog With Witch Hat ($50). It's even carrying a little pumpkin bag to carry candy!
HighydroLED Lighted Halloween Inflatable Skeleton Dog
If, like me, you saw the previous slide and thought, "What if we take the trick-or-treating dachshund and make it an inflated balloon that is taller than all of us?" then this HighydroLED Lighted Halloween Inflatable Skeleton Dog ($40) is for you. Talk about trick or treat, this six-foot-tall dog is no joke.
Joiedomi Halloween Skeleton Dog Family Set
What's better than one giant inflatable dog? A family of three giant inflatable dogs, duh! And this Joiedomi Halloween Skeleton Dog Family Set ($55) delivers just that.
Goosh Halloween Inflatable Standing Skeleton Dog
I'll admit, this Goosh Halloween Inflatable Standing Skeleton Dog ($40) is one of the more unsettling pups on the market, but it is Halloween after all, so bring on the spooks!
