Recently, I asked members of the BuzzFeed Community who purchased the viral 12-foot skeleton from Home Depot to show me how they're decorating with it this year. Their pictures absolutely did not disappoint.

Here are 11 hilarious pictures of the viral 12-foot skeletons on display for Halloween 2023:
