Halloween in July − no matter how you feel about it, it's here and stores like Target are taking full advantage.
Joining competitors Home Depot and Lowes, Target has already unleashed its lineup of new ghouls onto the world, bringing back its star pupil, Lewis the Pumpkin Ghoul, who managed to go pretty viral last year.
Lewis is making his triumphant return with a gaggle of new friends, Target also announced, including an equally extra tall pal and options for people decorating in smaller spaces.
Excited to get your hands on the newest Halloween decor? Here a look at Target's new offerings for 2024 and when you can get them.

Lewis the Pumpkin Ghoul
The classic, 8-foot-tall Lewis the Pumpkin Ghoul has returned after his virality had him selling out in days last year.
Lewis' impressive height is complemented by his spooky, light-up pumpkin head and jack-o'-lantern smile. Dressed in tattered robes, Lewis entertains not only by illuminating but also via his signature sassy phrases that originally captured the adoration of fans.
You may be familiar with one of his most famous: “I am nota jack-o'-lantern. My name is Lewis.” 2024 Lewis has big shoes to fill - those of 2023 Lewis, who amassed an impressive 34 million views on the #MyNameIsLewis hashtag on TikTok. Luckily, he has new friends to help (more on that below).
How to get it: Lewis is currently available online only for $180. You can also get free shipping if you're a Target Circle 360 member, pay with a Target Circle card or simply spend more than $35 using any payment method. Lewis will be available for purchase in stores starting in late August.
Bruce the Skeleton Ghoul
Bruce the Skeleton Ghoul is a fellow front lawn giant, also standing at 8 feet like his buddy Lewis.
Bruce is making his debut this year with six not-so-spooky but certainly catchy phrases of his own. Adorned in a hooded black robe, he gives off the creepy reaper vibe whether lit up or not, though when turned on he glows an eerie lime green from his exposed ribcage, empty eye sockets and hands.
Dying to hear one of his snappy lines? Here's a taste of one, “Why does everyone think I’m grim? I’m living my best afterlife, baby! Wuohahahaaaa!" Seems he shares a sense of humor with his ghoulish pumpkin pal.
How to get it: Bruce is currently available online only for $180. He will be available for purchase in stores starting in late August.
Little Lewis
Wishing you could get it on the Lewis hype but worried you'll have no place to put him? Little Lewis, or what some are calling "baby" Lewis, is the perfect solution for apartment dwellers and small space decorators.
Measuring 65 inches tall, Little Lewis brings the same sayings as his bigger counterpart to smaller spaces. Sporting the same toothy grin and quippy voice lines, Little Lewis' pumpkin head also lights up and his long, creepy orange fingers beckon you from the sleeves of his gauzy robe.
This Lewis comes with a hanging loop, meaning he can "hang out" either inside or in an outdoor area with a bit of shelter, like a porch.
How to get it: Little Lewis is currently available online only for $30. He will be available for purchase in stores starting in late August.
Pumpkin Iron Lewcy
Feeling nostalgic for the aerobics classes of times past? The 1980s-themed Pumpkin Iron Lewcy ghoul is an oddly specific, but perfectly on-theme decoration for your Halloween.
Standing 40 inches tall, Lewcy also comes with a hanging hook, making her suitable for an indoor or outdoor post. Her pumpkin half-head is adorned with a classic purple-striped sweatband to match the purple dumbells in her hands.
Her off-the-shoulder, raw hem pink top is adorned with the words "Pumpkin Iron" as her outfit is finished with matching pink bottoms. Lewcy's jack-o-lantern face glows and her head swivels side to side. She also speaks her own catchphrases like, "Let that ghoulish energy flow!”
How to get it: Lewcy sells online for $20. If sold out, Halloween hopefuls can sign up to be notified when she's back in stock. She will be available in stores starting in late August.
Pumpkin Rocker Billy
Pumpkin Rocker Billy is rock'n'rolling onto the scene this year with a rockstar style and guitar in hand.
The 70-inch tall orange skeleton comes ready to rock with a vibrant green electric guitar topped with a bat figurine. Sporting purple and black striped pants and a matching unbuttoned vest, Billy also has a pumpkin head sporting a carved-out smile and a star painted around his eyes.
Billy's features include not only a glowing head, but his torso, arms and head also move, allowing him to play a riff and sing for anyone who triggers his motion and sound sensors.
How to get it: Rocker Billy is currently available online only for $150. He will be available in stores starting in late August.
