Halloween may be months away, but wholesale retailer Sam’s Club is already getting into spooky season.

Member’s Mark 10-foot animated Triple Fright Reaper
Giant skeleton decorations are so very in right now, so it’s no surprise to see a giant skeleton on the Sam’s Club Trending Item list this month. This 10-foot-tall creeper is wearing a black robe with a purple gauze overlay.
Unlike other giant skeletons, this one has a special surprise: It features motion-activated lights, sounds and animations. When activated, the skeleton speaks and its robe opens to reveal two more hidden skulls with moving mouths and spooky light-up eyes.
The 10-foot Member’s Mark animated Triple Fright Reaper is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Find it for $230 at Sam’s Club.
Add two more skeletons for $100 more
Love the skeleton look? Add on to your outdoor spookscape by adding a pair of Member’s Mark bronze talking skeletons with light-up eyes. They feature locking joints so they can be posed in a variety of ways. When placed together, the two 5-foot-tall skeletons will talk and interact with each other.
Find the set of two skeletons at Sam’s Club for $100.
Beetlejuice 10.5-foot airblown inflatable archway
Really wow your trick-or-treaters this year — and their parents — with this airblown inflatable Beetlejuice archway that features a sandworm, sign and Beetlejuice himself. It’s equipped with LED lights so it’s visible at night, while the included heavy-duty lawn stakes will keep it in place. Setup is easy: It self-inflates in seconds once you plug it in, and deflates quickly for storage when not in use.
The 10.5-foot Beetlejuice inflatable archway is a Sam’s Club exclusive. It’s rated for both indoor and outdoor use. Find it online and in stores for $200.
Harry Potter 12-foot airblown inflatable Hogwarts Castle
If you’re looking for a more magical Halloween experience this year, check out the 12-foot inflatable Hogwarts Castle available at Sam’s Club. It features bright LEDs for nighttime use, and like the “Beetlejuice” inflatable above, it comes with lawn stakes and sets up in seconds.
One Sam’s Club reviewer calls this Harry Potter inflatable the best Halloween splurge they’ve ever made. “Everything about this castle made me happy!” they said. “The lights twinkle, it’s tall enough for people to actually walk under, set up wasn’t bad, and I was able to take it down and fit it back in the original box in less than 15 minutes. The motion activated music ended up being even better than I thought.”
Find this showstopping Harry Potter inflatable at Sam’s Club for $300 this August.
Disney Mickey Mouse Spooktacular Pumpkin Plush
Not everyone appreciates a Halloween fright — especially younger kids. For little ones, Sam’s Club has an adorable new Disney Mickey Mouse pumpkin plush. Far from scary, this 12-inch-tall Mickey-themed plush features two mini pumpkin ears, a green stem and a huge, friendly smile.
While it’s safe for ages 3 and up, this cuddly orange plush looks just as great on an office desk or dorm room bed as it does on a child’s bed.
Find it at Sam’s Club for $18.
9-piece light-up Disney Halloween village
Disney fans will love this nine-piece Halloween village, available at Sam’s Club. The centerpiece of the set is a haunted house with a Mickey Mouse-shaped pumpkin on top. Other set pieces include a spooky light-up tree, entrance gate and a selection of Disney characters (including Donald Duck pulling a pumpkin chariot with Daisy Duck riding in it).
The set includes 5 AA batteries to power the set’s 22 LED lights. The lights are on a 6 hours on / 18 hours off timer.
Member’s Mark pre-lit metal jack-o’-lantern set
Add some Halloween ambiance with this set of three pre-lit metal jack-o’-lanterns. Each comes with a AA battery-operated LED candle that gives off a flickering glow without the fire risk of real candles. (Six AA batteries are included.)
Verified reviewers rave that these jack-o’-lanterns have the same look as decorations from higher-end stores but at a low Sam’s Club price. “These were perfect dupes and super affordable,” says one.
We like that these jack-o’-lanterns have a 6 hours on / 18 hours off automatic timer, so you don’t need to hassle with flicking switches daily. We also like that these light-up pumpkins are nestable for easy display or storage.
Find the set of three at Sam’s Club for just $40 in August.
Join Sam’s Club for $25 in August

Sam’s Club Plus members can also shop sales before other Sam’s Club members. Terms apply. (See the Sam’s Club site for more details.)
The wholesale club also has a deal for anyone who wants to become a Sam’s Club Plus Member. Right now, you can get $40 off a Sam’s Club Plus membership. That brings the annual price down to $70.
