While pumpkins might scream in the dead of night, you don’t have to raise your voice to get your Echo Dot to turn on your spooky smart lights or play your favorite Halloween playlist. That being said, everything is a lot more fiendishly delightful with this brand new Jack Skellington shell, meant to turn your smart speaker into the Pumpkin King himself.

This limited-edition Echo Dot holder was made in collaboration with Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas, the merch of which starts to absolutely dominate every Hot Topic and Disney Store around this time of year. You won’t see us complaining, though — who wouldn’t want to live like Jack and Sally if they wanted to? While the shell officially releases on Tuesday, Oct. 8, you can pre-order one by itself or in a bundle that includes an Echo Dot and the Jack Skellington shell. You can actually save 30% if you pre-order the bundle now, bringing the price down to $62.98 (originally $89.98).

Echo Dot Limited-Edition Disney Jack Skellington Shell Bundle
$62.98 $89.98 30% off
The exclusive Echo Dot bundle comes with both the scarily fun Jack Skellington shell holder design and a 5th Gen (2022 release) version of Amazon’s smart speaker. The Echo Dot comes in three colorways — Glacier White, Deep Sea Blue, and Charcoal.
Made to fit 4th or 5th generation Echo Dots, the mouth on the stand lights up with the light ring from your speaker, and automatically adjusts based on the light level in your room. Which means that Jack’s cheeky smile might show up better in a well-lit room rather than the darkest, gloomiest part of your castle. Make your desk, kitchen table, or your beside nightstand more festive in a snap — seriously, the easy, snap-on shell design won’t interfere with any of of your Echo Dot’s buttons, and there’s a grid on top so you can still hear the speaker crystal clear.
With the Jack Spellington Echo Dot shell, you’ll still be able to use Alexa voice assistant to stream your favorite music, ask for weather updates, get the latest news, and more. It’s the perfect way to add a bit of Halloween spirit to your home without messy fake cobwebs or yet another plastic pumpkin. Whether you’re obsessed with The Nightmare Before Christmas, or you just want a seasonal smart house upgrade, pre-order the Jack Skellington Shell for your Amazon Echo Dot before it sells out here.
