This just might keep the door-to-door salesmen and the in-laws away! This eerie creature is solid metal and very very heavy. It measures 8-1/2" wide and 15" tall, and the round knocker is 6" in diameter. A dab of paint has worn off on his upper lip but it is not overly noticeable. He is attached to the door with screws but the screws do not come with it.
