These two skeleton soldiers are the smaller version of our 63.5 inch guards, made the same way at about three feet tall. One holds a staff topped with a skull and the other a staff topped with a pumpkin head. They are hand painted to look old, dirty, and distressed, as if the bones were just dug up, and each comes with a ground stake.
Key Features
- The big guards in a smaller size: Same look and detail as the 63.5 inch soldiers, scaled to about three feet for steps, beds, and smaller porches.
- Skull staff and pumpkin staff: Each soldier carries a different staff, and the pair mirrors left and right to frame a door or path.
- Dug up, distressed finish: Hand painted antique grime and texture make the bones look like they came straight out of the ground.
- Weather and rust resistant: Powder coated iron holds up outdoors, and one stake for each soldier helps keep them upright in the yard.
What's Included
You get both soldiers: the left soldier with a skull staff at 9.25 x 6.5 x 37 inches, and the right soldier with a pumpkin staff at 10 x 7.75 x 36.75 inches, plus one ground stake for each, packed together in one carton.
Before You Buy
- Each soldier is about three feet tall. They measure 37 and 36.75 inches, a good size for steps and garden beds.
- The dirty, aged look is intentional. Each piece is hand painted to look distressed, so the wear on yours will differ a little from the photos.
- One stake comes with each soldier. Use the stakes in grass or soil, and set them on a level surface on a porch.
Perfect For
- Guarding both sides of a front step
- A graveyard scene in a flower bed or along the walk
- Smaller porches where five foot figures would crowd
Care & Use
- Brush off dirt with a soft dry cloth.
- Press each stake firmly into the ground for yard placement.
- Store them indoors after Halloween to keep the finish at its best.

Why these soldiers are a favorite
Two staffs, one pair
One soldier holds a skull staff and the other a pumpkin staff. Placed left and right, they frame a doorway or path like a real honor guard for the season.
Ready for the yard
Powder coated iron resists weather and rust, and each soldier comes with its own ground stake, so the pair can stand guard in the lawn or garden through the whole Halloween season.

Which size skeleton soldiers should I get?
vs. the 63.5 inch soldiers
The tall pair is a showstopper for wide porches. This three foot pair fits steps and beds and ships in one carton.
vs. a plastic yard stake
Flat stakes look thin up close. These are full iron figures with hand painted texture on every bone.
vs. a blow mold inflatable
No fan and no cords. They stay upright and look the same day or night.
