First things first. If you're going to start decorating for halloween you're going to need a skull or two in the mix. This incredibly realistic skull is on the smaller side (which is a good thing because it'll probably keep people from thinking you could be a serial killer) but there are larger options available including this dark and eerie open-mouth version.

It's no wonder that this 72-inch cocoon corpse is a best seller considering its a dead ringer for an actual cocoon corpse (whatever that means).
