Shannon Wilson
Halloween will be here before you know it and if you're going to go all out and decorate your yard for Halloween this year, you need to prepare now. Inflatables are a great way to decorate for the popular fall holiday. You can get a large yard decoration that inflates by air that stores easily the rest of the year when you turn the air off. This article will give details on the top five inflatable yard decorations to buy in 2010.

#1: Inflatable Skeleton Train with Rising Ghost

Walmart has a truly awesome yard decoration. It is a train with a skeleton conductor with a few passengers such as a ghost that rises up and some pumpkins. The conductor waves as he's "driving" the train and the train itself is tricked out for Halloween. The front of the train has a creepy eyeball and jagged teeth mouth. The rest of the train is in orange, green and black and has bats all over it. A bonus passenger is at the back of the train, a vampire in his costume that lifts the lid of the coffin up and peeks out before closing it again. The inflatable also lights up and self inflates in mere seconds. Stakes and tethers are included so you can hook it to the ground. You can purchase it from Walmart for $199 dollars.

#2: Black Cat

Want to look like your yard is heavily guarded on Halloween night by a spooky black cat? Front Gate.com offers a black cat that is over 6' long once inflated. This cool cat has lights in his eyes and his head turns side to side, as if to warm Halloween goers not to mess with his area. He is positioned as if he is ready to pounce. All you need to inflate him is an electrical outlet. He comes with the fan to keep him inflated and stakes and tethers. It sells for $79 dollars.

#3: Archway Mortuary

Trick or Treaters will shiver in delight as they see your inflatable Mortuary from Christmas Lights, Etc. The Archway Mortuary is 9 feet tall and is in shades of purple, grey and black. There are faux windows on each side that have two ghosts peeking through. The center of the arch has a brown doorway that you can walk through and there are bats on the "roof." Two lighted torches on each side of the doorway add to the Halloween fun. Stakes and tethers are included and you can buy it for $153.99.

#4: Skeleton Pirates on Shipwreck

Go for something a little different this Halloween and skip the usual ghouls in exchange for Halloween pirates. Walmart.com sells a super cool shipwreck inflatable with skeleton pirates. It is over eight feet tall and eleven feet wide. This will definitely be the focal point of your yard this Halloween. The pirate ship is in the position of sinking downward. Two skeleton pirates are in the main boat that has their pirate flag hanging proudly and one pirate is in a smaller rowboat at the edge of the main ship with one pirate sitting in it with an oar in his hand. One of the pirates moves his head back and forth, another waves his sword and the ship has lights throughout it, making it really pop on Halloween night. Stakes and tethers come with the shipwreck. It sells for $139 dollars.

#5: Green Spider

Spiders are a classic decoration for Halloween because most people seem to be a little squeamish of them and that's why having a spider in your yard for Halloween in a larger form is the perfect creepy decoration. The Home Depot sells a large black and green spider that lights up and turns his head back and forth. It'll be easy to image that he wants to make a feast out of your Halloween guests. Everything is included to set up and hook your spider to the crowd. You can buy this creepy critter for $49.98.
