No news yet that I've been made aware of

Hoping they bring back the nautical theme, missed out on the diver and the servo witch

Some new prop images have appeared on the decorating fanatics facebook page. So far a 12 foot vampire, 10 foot scarecrow, 10 foot spider archway, jumpscare ghoul, 6 foot groundbreaker, bluetooth DJ skeleton, 7 foot werewolf, plague doctor, balloon animal clown, cauldron witch, giant skull groundbreaker, and a new Emily/Victor set.
 
Personally i think the clown, wolf and the witch are the best. The vampires not bad but i’d like to see him in person first. Emily and Victor are such an odd choice considering the Spirit set from last year is basically perfect. Spider archway is cool too but build quality is probably going to be spotty. Hopefully the band members return along with the bone collector as I think those were the best from last seasons line up.
 
The ones that have me intrigued:
The spider- is this 10ft tall or wide? if tall, does that mean we can walk under it? now that sounds cool.
the corpse bride characters- will this be better than spirit? they seems like good quality but have to see their animation.
skeleton ground breaker- saw this trend coming, seems good but have to see it in person. i feel like not having arms is going to make it look bad.
12ft vampire- idk, for me it seems like a cheap knockoff to last years model, just a quick reskin. Have to see this in person.
 
I agree on Victor and Emily. Why? SoH had them last year. I don’t see how tall they might be? Could they be giants? Emily does look a bit better from these early pics compared to what we had last year. Maybe they will offer mouth movement.

The ground breaker is a big let down. The 10ft spider and the jump scare are interesting. I was hoping for a Vampire but I’m not trilled about the look of it. Maybe when better pictures are available my outlook might change.
 
Is the plague doctor wearing a dress? That looks like they took another prop and just stuck a bird head on it.

I'm also already more sick and tired of the corpse bride stuff than the Nightmare Before Christmas stuff.
Yes. It’s obvious it’s a female plague doctor 👩🏼‍⚕️. It will be compared to last years HD plague doctor but they seem to have taken a different path in coming out with the female version.
 
The only thing that I think is of interest (to me) is the spider. I agree with everyone else commenting on Emily and Victor - maybe Spirit beat them to the punch? Lots of variety, which is never a bad idea.
 
A few more animatronic names have surfaced: 12 ft infernal harbinger, 9 ft poisonous pumpkin, 7 ft cotton candy clown, 5.5 ft eye scream clown, 8 ft cornfield creeper, 4 ft burlap scarecrow clown, life size Stay-Puft, life size Slimer, servo cyclops, lunging giant spider, sharpshooter reaper, pop up goblin, impending doom countdown.
 
In addition to these I’d imagine some of last years props will also return, so this could be Lowe’s’ biggest year yet, I was hoping for updated band reapers and more of the Haunted Harbor collection but we shall see. With photos out this early I imagine the managers meeting will be held earlier than last year and we’ll see better pictures soon.
