The Grim Reaper – Halloween Village Accessories by Department 56

Hark! The harbinger of death has come in the form of the Grim Reaper figurine from the Department 56 Halloween Village Accessories collection. Made from polyresin, this hand-painted figurine depicts the infamous shadow-clad symbol of death. This skeleton wears a hooded black robe.

In one of its hands, it offers up an hourglass as a memento mori, reminding the viewer that death comes for everyone. Its only a matter of time. In death’s other hand is a large scythe with bony grips. The figure of death stands upon grassy graveyard ground.

A pair of grave markers sits behind the figure, one a wooden cross and the other a brown gravestone. It seems someone has decided to carve Not in red underneath the typical RIP for Rest in Peace. Littered on the ground nearby are bits and pieces of the remains of the dead. A grey rat seems to find them rather interesting.

With its intricate detailing and rich coloring, the grim reaper miniature creates an immersive tableau all on its own. This eerie figurine is the perfect addition to any Halloween display or miniature graveyard. No matter if you are an experienced collector or new to creating miniature displays, it is a must-have for your collection.
