Halloween Decorating Trends To Consider

Halloween is essentially a theme within itself, and can be used as an umbrella term to describe decorations with a spooky ambience. Halloween party themes can go on to include popular movies or supernatural animals. Yet, you can also find a variety of different subsections of Halloween decorations. Some party hosts may prefer to put a twist on traditional Halloween celebrations by engaging with Halloween trends that have become popularised in recent years.

Celebrating with a Halloween disco is one such trend that has party hosts combining traditional Halloween accents with sparkling and fun designs as seen with our disco sequin pumpkins which can be easily incorporated into table settings or mantelpiece displays. Another trend is incorporating your own personal colour palette to coordinate with your existing home decor colour scheme. Halloween is most often available in traditional colour palettes of orange, black and red, however you can find a great range of decorations including our Spooky Hollow Pumpkin Decoration, which is available in a traditional orange as well as an adorable pink colour tone.

Terrifying Halloween Table Settings

Halloween decor isn't limited to wall decorations. You can infuse a spooky touch into your dining room or side tables for your guests to enjoy while snacking on Halloween candy and desserts. Plus, have your guests feasting on spooky-themed plates, decorated with cartoon ghosts and skeletons. These additional details will have you celebrating Halloween all throughout your space. You can also use Halloween-themed trick-or-treat buckets to hold wrapped sweet treats and lollies as both a functional and decorative piece! The possibilities are endless with amazing Halloween tableware from Spotlight!

Indoor And Outdoor Halloween Decorations For Maximum Fun

Whether you're hosting a Halloween party or simply preparing for trick-or-treaters knocking on your door on Halloween night, we have you covered on not only indoor decorations, but also outdoor Halloween decorations to transform your front garden into a scary sight to behold.

Hair-Raising Inflatable Halloween Decorations

Incorporate an amusing twist on traditional scary decor with inflatable Halloween decorations. These decorations are typically whimsical in their design, making them great for children's Halloween parties or celebrations at schools. Due to their expansive design, these pieces are a great, easy Halloween decor option for those looking to celebrate the spooky holiday without the stress of putting together intricate decorations.

Due to their construction, these inflatable Halloween decorations can be used both inside as well as outside in your front yard, perfect for presenting your home as a must-stop place for trick or treaters along their treat-seeking Halloween journey. With a great selection of inflatable Halloween decorations including an inflatable headless cat, ghost, arched skeleton and even a skeleton cooler used for cooling drinks, Spooky Hollow has you covered for inflatable Halloween decorations.

Halloween Animated and Light Up Decorations

Incorporating an element of playfulness can have your party guests and trick-or-treaters leave feeling impressed with your Halloween decorating skills. Animated Halloween decorations feature spooky light and sound effects and are the perfect simple Halloween decor option for those wanting to create an interactive and memorable haunted house experience. Spook your guests with a door mat that emits a sound when stepped on, ensuring your guests are on guard for what your celebrations have installed from the moment they enter your home. You may also opt for a more whimsical approach with a light-up inflatable pumpkin skeleton for a cute twist on those often terrifying animated Halloween decorations.

Smaller Details For A Complete Halloween Look

At the end of the day, it's all in the details when throwing any celebration. Halloween celebrations in particular require a certain level of effort to communicate the spooky theme behind the holiday. However, you can still throw the perfect Halloween celebration without large and overwhelming decorations. Halloween decor can include garlands that say 'BOO' as well as stand-alone gravestone-themed artwork. These easy Halloween decor accents are a great last-minute option due to their relatively undemanding nature. They can be used to create a cohesive theme throughout your home or to complement larger decorations in your living areas or front yard. Simply add a garland to your doorway, or cobwebs on your mantelpiece for a perfect finishing touch.
