If, for some reason, that Joker mask inspired by Batman: Death of the Family isn't harrowing enough, there's now a Clown Prince of Crime lawn ornament virtually guaranteed to send trick-or-treaters screaming from your home.

Advertised by ThinkGeek as the innocous-sounding "DC The Joker Ground Breaker," it's actually a night full of terror packed into an oversize garden gnome. Based on artist Greg Capullo's design, this grinning, knife-wielding Joker looks as if he's clawing his way out of the ground, ready to grab unsuspecting passersby (and their candy).

What's more, it features a motion-sensitive spotlight, for full pants-wetting effect.

Measuring 34 inches by 24 inches by 10 inches, the (ahem) Joker Ground Breaker is priced at $89.99, which might seem a little much for a Halloween decoration. But who says you only have to break it out once a year?
