Decorating the house for Halloween in a fun and different way is made easy thanks to a new line of Zombie Chia Pets. Granted, people will have to devout not only time, but a little tender, love and care to these creepy underworld-lings. Who knew that greenery can be so frightening.

Created by Joseph Enterprises, the Zombie Chia Pets are a far cry from the cute puppies and kittens usually associated with the brand. There is Creepy Holden, a snarling male zombie, and his partner Lifeless Lisa as well as Restless Arm, which is a mangled hand bursting through a mound of 'grass.' Available online at [Amazon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glow-potion-collection) as well as in store at [Home Depot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-monsters), the Zombie Chia Pets are [fun for the whole family](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oriental-trading).
