Halloween is lurking around the corner, which means its time to break out the decorations. Orange and black bleed over everything and frightful images are found around every corner. Whether you’re style is kooky and colorful or dreary and scary, Consumer Guide has concocted some ideas for your Halloween decorating needs.


The Graveyard

Just as one might create a Christmas extravaganza on their front lawn, you might have the desire to decorate the lawn to death for Halloween. One way of decorating the front lawn is to turn it into a graveyard. Graveyard decorations save you the trouble of carving the marble tombstones yourself. Set the mood with fog by hiding a fog machine behind a tree or tombstone. To add a feeling of remorse for the departed in your graveyard, place black roses on the graves.

Add a few groundbreaking skeletons and creatures and see your lawn spring to life.


Haunted Greetings

By putting up a few decorations at the doorway, you can give your friends and trick-or-treaters a frightful greeting. Spider webs are always a nice touch to any doorway. While there, toss in a few extra spiders in for good luck! If you’re busy, let someone else do the greeting for you, like your household skeleton!

Show them that others like hanging around too with hanging decorations like the witch and a ghoul.


Rest in Peace

Relax in the comfort of your home -- Halloween style. Touch up tables and the mantle with skulls and put a skeleton in an empty chair. Dangle some bats from the lights or ceiling.

For those chilly October nights, bask in the glow of Halloween themed lights, such as critters or bats. Hang up some vintage-style Halloween decorations for a cozy feeling. Fill up your Halloween mug with some hot apple cider or cocoa.


Monster Mash

Decorate in Halloween spirit for your monster mash. Line the table with a table runner and put out the good Halloween goblets. Serve some goodies on a festive treat tray and put out the candy in your favorite black cauldron.

Festive crepe paper can add some color to the room and Halloween balloons will make things festive. Put on a Halloween movie or some music to really get the party started. And don’t worry about keeping tabs on everyone. Your mummy can stand guard.

Have a frightfully delightful Halloween!
