Twitter Thread Turns “Skelly on the Telly” into New October Tradition You Should Start Next Year
Because Halloween deserves its own “Elf on the Shelf”!
“Our kids are too old for Elf on the Shelf,” Twitter user Briaaans! (@bpas77) tweeted in early October. “But not for Skelly on the Telly (my wife’s creation).”
That was the beginning of a month-long Twitter thread that may very well have started a new Halloween tradition for families across the globe. Like Elf on the Shelf, Skelly on the Telly is a holiday decoration that comes alive at night to cause all kinds of mischief, and his nightly adventures were documented in the thread.
On Friday the 13th, Skelly jumped off the telly to make Jason Voorhees-themed cupcakes. Another night, he celebrated Halloween proper by carving a pumpkin.

Skelly likes some wine with his bath, because it takes more than soap and water to wash away the bad decisions. pic.twitter.com/gOdDT8Zzeq

Every season can be Halloween season with a little imagination, right?! Our friends at Spirit Halloween are determined to make sure you have a scary little summer with their new Summerween lineup, which kicks off this week with a killer new Terrifier pool party collection that features everything from a Terrifier beach towel to an Art the Clown pool float!
The exclusive, limited-time Terrifier collection is available now while supplies last.
Art the Clown has haunted the streets of Miles County on Halloween and the holidays, and now Spirit is helping him take a stab at summer. This officially-licensed collaboration arrives as the “Summerween” movement, a mid-summer celebration of spooky culture, reaches a fever pitch with #summerween amassing over 34.7B views and counting.
“The horror fandom doesn’t hibernate in the heat,” said Lori Tesoro, Director of PR at Spirit Halloween. “By bringing Terrifier‘s Art the Clown into the summer, we’re giving Halloween fans the year-round scares they demand.”
The collection features killer essentials to turn any beach day into a sun-soaked slasher where guests won’t know if they should grab a drink… or make a run for it.
- “Summer Scaries” Sign: a layered 3D sign that practically pulls Art the Clown off the wall and into the party.
- Art the Clown Ice Cream Inflatable Pool Float: a nearly six-foot Art-inspired ice cream cone topped with his iconic sunflower shades and devious grin.
- Art the Clown Pool Party Can: dripping graphics, a blood-red straw, and a sunnies topper that says hydration… but make it homicidal.
- Terrifier Beach Towel: one side chill black and white design, one side full-blown blood-splattered chaos.
- Terrifier Tote and Mini: perfect for SPF, snacks, and whatever you can grab in a panic.
- Terrifier Apparel: Drip shorts, Summer Scaries graphic tee, and Art the Clown Cropped Tank Top that serve “final character chic” with a killer instinct.
- Art the Clown Accessories: signature ice pop sunnies and a reversible bucket hat that flips from sunny to nightmare fuel in seconds.
