Lights and Spooky Details

Halloween Decorations

Skeletons, hanging bats and a few other things for decorating around the house or outside. I like that some of these can be used in different ways instead of having just one spot.

I like the idea of skeletons you can pose instead of just standing them in one place. You could sit them on a bench, hang them from the porch or add a few small accessories to make the display your own. The listing says they're hard plastic with join...

Two poseable 40-inch skeletons

A set of 12 hanging bats in three styles, with glow-in-the-dark eye stickers you can add. They're made of a waterproof plastic sheet rather than paper, and a few reviewers mention they're sturdier and bigger than they expected. I think they'd look ni...

Hanging Halloween bats, 12-piece set

One 47-inch ghost with blue LED lights inside, so it adds a little glow as well as the usual Halloween look. It has a timer setting, and it needs 3 AA batteries, which aren't included. A fun addition to a porch or a spooky corner inside the house.

JOYIN Halloween Hanging Light up Ghost

Twelve black fabric witch hats with a long nylon cord, so you can hang them at different heights over a porch or entryway. A couple of reviewers said they arrive wrinkled from the packaging, so it's worth smoothing them out before hanging.

12 PCS Black Halloween Witch Hats Decor

One large piece of black gauze, about 23 by 7 feet, that you can cut to whatever size you need. It works over doorways, windows or a mantel. Reviewers say there's plenty of it, though it tears easily, which suits the look anyway.

Whaline Black Creepy Cloth, 276 x 87 inch

Costume Ideas

For anyone still figuring out what to wear. These range from recognizable characters to simple costume pieces that can be styled in different ways.

A classic costume that's easy to recognize. It comes with the hooded robe, a belt and the mask, but reviewers point out that gloves aren't included. It comes in one standard size, so check the size details before ordering.

Fun World Ghost Face® Adult Costume

A velvet hooded robe with gold trim. The listing shows just the robe, so you'd add your own hat, wand or other pieces. A useful starting point if you don't want to put together a whole outfit from scratch. It's a newer listing with fewer reviews than...

JPXH Adult Hooded Wizard Robe Costume

The wings make the whole look. The set comes with a chiffon wing cape, a lace face mask and an antenna headband, so it can go over plain black clothes. The listing comes in more than one colour, including blue and the orange monarch style, so check w...

Sunlisky Adult Butterfly Costume Women Monarch

This one is for adults. It comes with a pumpkin cape with a face that glows after being in the light, a knit pumpkin hat and a pumpkin-shaped candy bag. A fun alternative to a plain orange outfit.

Women's Glow-in-the-Dark Pumpkin Costume, 3 Pieces

Halloween for Kids and Little Extras

A few things for kids' costumes, plus some small accessories and pumpkin-carving tools for the Halloween plans that are still coming together.

A recognizable option for kids who love Star Wars. It's a printed jumpsuit with a cape and a plastic mask. It's worth checking the size chart before choosing one.

STAR WARS Darth Vader Youth Halloween Costume

A plush dinosaur skeleton costume for toddlers and young kids. The bones glow after being in the light, and there's a small sound button in the headpiece. It doesn't have many reviews yet, so I'd read through them before ordering.

Glow Dark Dinosaur Skeleton Costume w/Sound

Three canvas tote bags with different Halloween prints, about 13.75 by 10.75 inches. Several reviewers mention they're sturdy and a good size for kids, and they can be reused as small totes after Halloween.

JOYIN Canvas Trick-or-Treat Tote Bags, Set of 3

Three pairs of small pumpkin and ghost studs. A simple way to add a little Halloween to an everyday outfit when you don't want to dress up fully.

3 Pairs Cute Halloween Stud Earrings for Women

13 stainless steel tools in a zip case, including saws, a scooper and small sculpting tools. If carving pumpkins is part of your plans, a kit like this keeps everything together. The tools are sharp, so follow the safety instructions.

CHRYZTAL Pumpkin Carving Kit, 13 Pieces

A Little Halloween Around the House

Smaller things for shelves, sofas and tabletops. These are for anyone who prefers a few Halloween touches around the house rather than decorating every corner.

These are the soft, fluffy kind, with little ghost faces on white plush. A cute way to add some Halloween to a couch without changing the whole room. Covers only, no inserts.

White Ghost Plush Pillow Covers, Set of 2

Six small ceramic pumpkins in black and white patterns with gold stems. These would be nice on a shelf, coffee table or mantel, and smaller pieces like these are easy to bring out again next fall.

DAZONGE Set of 6 Ceramic Halloween Pumpkins

Four printed covers with spider webs, ghosts and stripes, so you can mix them on a sofa or porch bench. These are covers only, the pillow inserts aren't included.

Spider Web and Ghost Pillow Covers, Set of 4

A simple black plastic cauldron for handing out candy or holding treats on a party table. It's 8 inches wide and 6 inches tall, so it's more of a small bowl than a big pot. One reviewer said the handle isn't very sturdy, so I'd carry it from the bott...

GiftExpress 8" Black Cauldron Candy Bowl

Lights and Spooky Details

A few lighting ideas for anyone who wants to make a porch, room or Halloween display feel a little spookier without adding lots of decorations.

A set of 20 LED floating candles with a wand remote that turns them on and off. They're not real candles, and the batteries aren't included, so plan for that. These would look nice hanging over a table or in a little Halloween display.

Halloween Floating Candle with Magic Wand

Orange and purple string lights, 114 feet with 300 LEDs. They plug in, have 8 light modes and a timer, and the listing says they can be used indoors or outdoors. These could work around a porch, doorway or party area.
