Summer is officially over, which gives us the all-clear to bust out the Halloween decorations. While we love a 12-foot skeleton or an animatronic ghost, we like this Amazon deal even more. Right now, the online retailer has chopped 30 percent off the price of its Echo Dot smart speaker with the Jack Skellington cover. It’s $62, down from its regular price of $90. If you love The Nightmare Before Christmas or just need a smart speaker, this is a very solid deal, but it’s only available for a limited time.

This is the 2022 version of the Echo Dot smart speaker, which serves as a home for Amazon’s Alexa smart assistant. It’s a full-fledged smart speaker that an control other smart home devices, play music, support audiobooks, and do anything else you’d expect out of a device like this. The Jack Skellington shell snaps over the spherical speaker and leaves access to the physical buttons on the top. This is a limited-edition Disney release so this deal will probably sell out, especially as people get more excited about the impending Halloween festivities.

Why Trust Popular Science

Popular Science started writing about technology more than 150 years ago. There was no such thing as “gadget writing” when we published our first issue in 1872, but if there was, our mission to demystify the world of innovation for everyday readers means we would have been all over it. Here in the present, PopSci is fully committed to helping readers navigate the increasingly intimidating array of devices on the market right now.

Our writers and editors have combined decades of experience covering and reviewing consumer electronics. We each have our own obsessive specialties—from high-end audio to video games to cameras and beyond—but when we’re reviewing devices outside of our immediate wheelhouses, we do our best to seek out trustworthy voices and opinions to help guide people to the very best recommendations. We know we don’t know everything, but we’re excited to live through the analysis paralysis that internet shopping can spur so readers don’t have to.
