TechHome Depot’s 12-foot viral skeleton can now talk

Home Depot is upgrading its 12-foot-tall skeleton once again as Halloween approaches. The retailer hopes the viral decoration will remain popular through the spooky season. Called Skelly, the display is borrowing technology from last year’s smaller 6.5-foot Ultra Skelly. A mobile app lets users speak through the skeleton while its mouth moves, adding an interactive feature to the already popular decoration.
