With Halloween 2015 falling on a Saturday, there’s no excuse to carve a pumpkin and call it a night. Trends bubbling out of the cauldron this year include bigger, bolder yard decorations. The National Retail Federation estimates that nearly one-third of the $10 million consumers spend on Halloween goes into decorations. Halloween retailers say 80% of their biggest sales gains last year were in indoor and outdoor decorations.

Whether they use compressed air, miniature motors or software, these otherworldly additions are getting big banner sections on retailer websites. We’ve got coupon codes for all of them to help you pull off a hauntingly good atmosphere.

Here are some of the best trends we’ve found.

The 1990 movie It was the stuff of Gen X nightmares. This 6-foot-tall, motion-activated Pennywise the Dancing Clown figure snarls and turns its head. Put him in your backyard haunted house and he’ll scare the tricksters away.

Eerie animal bones are a huge trend this year. Go for the creepy museum look with cats, scorpions and other creatures, or evoke all-out terror with a skeleton spider attached to a human skull – another nod to It.
