In this case, the battery powered loud and obnoxious talking halloween skull was the face of Leaf Boy, a leaf stuffed guy. Too much trouble to get to the power switch, so he needed a power switch on a wire. Also it would make him shut the heck up until someone was in the right spot for him to yell at them." - Link.
