Halloween Party Decorating Ideas

What better way to greet your arriving guests than with a tasteful Halloween wreath made from venomous black snakes?

This would definitely be a Halloween decoration Medusa would be proud to display on her front door. It’s a wreath that’s dark, eerie, and will literally makes your skin crawl…just like the snakes that are featured on it.

Garlands are a convenient way to string up all your favorite Halloween elements in one long decoration that covers a lot of ground.

You can place Halloween garlands practically anywhere; on your fireplace mantel, suspending from the ceiling, displayed on tables, draped on stair railings, and so much more.

You can even wear them around your shoulders if you think your costume needs a little accessorizing.  

Pumpkins make great center pieces because they come in all sorts of shapes, colors and size.

Their variation draws attention and offers the eyes an enticing and enjoyable display. They’re also very easy to customize to whatever theme your Halloween party is.

Carve them with images of witches, paint them to look like bloody decapitated heads, or create traditional Jack-o-lanterns but with a Zorro twist by putting on sophisticated looking black masks.

The possibilities are endless and you might even want to try a pumpkin carriage centerpiece.

Have you ever seen those movies when unsuspecting individuals walk into an old abandoned home and all the furniture have been covered in ominous white sheets?

Well that concept would make for an awesome party décor. Covering your furniture in main areas with plain white sheets will really evoke the feeling of creepy haunted house.

Plus they’re great for protecting your furniture from the spills, crumbs and accidents that might occur during the festivities. 

Lighting really creates the mood inside a home and candles are the ideal lighting during Halloween. They create low lit warm glows that makes the homes feel inviting yet spooky at the same time.

Step it up a notch with scary looking candles that come with extra details like dripping blood or candle holders shaped like dismembered human hands.  

While hanging family photos of you and your children are nice, it just doesn’t have the right Halloween element to them.

During this season, temporarily take down those happy cheery family portraits and replace them with more insidious looking displays of skeletal figures, creepy old photos from the earlier centuries or anything that looks frightening.

Although some would argue that their family portrait featuring matching Christmas sweaters would often get a few screams in which case they could work fine with the Halloween theme.  

It’s all about creating that shock and awe experience when it comes to decorating your home for a Halloween party.

And what better way than an amazing table display featuring a spooky halloween tablecloth, smoking cauldrons, candelabras covered in spider webs, potions in bottles, and grotesque looking dishes to really creep out your guests, but in a good way.
