• A Christopher James design

That wide-eyed grin isnt fooling anyone, this skeleton has stories, and probably a few secrets too. The Vintage Skeleton Head Display by Christopher James puts mischief on full display, packed into an 18-inch celebration of all things Halloween.

At the center of it all is a bold Beistle-style skeleton face, wide-eyed and unnervingly cheerful, peeking out from behind a collection of spooky companions. A sculpted skeleton in a top hat stands in front of a wiry black tree, where glittered bats seem to orbit his head like tiny winged conspirators.

To the right, an orange owl looks on with unblinking eyes, offering no help at all when the questions start flying. A second tiny skeleton lounges by the Halloween sign at the base, almost like he wandered in late and decided to stay for the ambiance. Orange and black festooning wraps the base and accents the entire display, lending energy and color to this eclectic little scene.

And yes, it lights up. Plug it in, and a soft bulb casts an orange glow across the skeletons face and down onto the scene below, giving everything that eerie, late-October shimmer. Whether youre filling a hallway nook or need a conversation piece for your sideboard, this piece holds its own with style and spook.

With nostalgic flair and a layered design thats easy to admire from every angle, the Vintage Skeleton Head Display brings out the playful side of Halloween, while still keeping one eye on the shadows. Just dont ask the skeleton in the hat what hes up to. Hes not talking.
