The “Scary Creeper” is a lifelike rubber face with hands cupped around it that it supposed to hang on a window and simulate someone looking in. A shopper who saw the item called CBC saying it promoted voyeurism, which is a crime in Canada. Home Depot Canada responded with this statement: “We agree that this is not in line with our core values, and when we heard, took immediate action and are currently in the process of removing this product from our assortment.”
