Outdoor Halloween Decoration Must Haves

Pumpkins

Pumpkins are a must-have for any outdoor Halloween decoration setup. They're easy to find (and often cheap!), and they come in all sorts of shapes and colors. You can use them for everything from jack-o'-lanterns to scarecrows, so it's hard to go wrong with this classic fall icon.

Witch Hats

Witch hats are the perfect addition to your outdoor decorations this Halloween. They're easy to make and can be used for a variety of purposes. You can use them as stand-alone decorations or combine them with other elements to create a spooky scene. The witch hat is a Halloween classic. You can't go wrong with a witch's hat for your outdoor Halloween decorating—it just looks so good!

Skull and Bones

Skulls and bones are a classic Halloween decoration. Skulls, in particular, can be found at most party supply stores. They're also easy to make yourself by ordering skull shaped molds online or making them out of paper or plastic bags. Bones are even easier to find—you might already have some lying around your house!

You'll need something sturdy like large branches or dowels for the legs and arms; you can paint these any color that matches your theme (spooky colors like black or purple are popular). To create the body itself, find a small box that will fit inside your base structure (which can also be made from cardboard) and glue it down as well as you possibly can so it stays put no matter what happens (even if someone bumps into it). You now have yourself an eerie skeleton for Halloween!

Skeletons

Skeletons are a timeless Halloween decoration. While it may seem like a simple costume, skeletons are actually quite complex and can be made from an assortment of materials. They're also a great way to decorate your home for Halloween! You can buy them in or make your own, but either way they're sure to bring some spooky fun into your life.

If you'd rather not spend any money on decorations this year, this is the perfect project for you! All you need is some cardboard, paint and glue (and maybe some wire). Skeletons can be used indoors or outdoors so they work well if space is limited inside your house.

Fake Spider Webs

You should definitely consider purchasing fake spider webs. Real ones are just too dangerous haha! You can find these at any party or seasonal store and they come in a variety of sizes, styles and colors. You can also choose between loose strands or those that are pre-tied in bundles or bundles with the strands already attached to one another.

Hanging Ghosts

Hanging ghosts are a classic decoration. They work well for indoor or outdoor settings and can be made out of paper, fabric, or other materials. They're also inexpensive and easy to make!

All you need is some string, a few sheets of colored paper (or fabric), scissors, white glue and twine (or string).

First you'll want to cut out your ghost shapes from the papers or fabrics that you've chosen using a template if necessary (the template should look like this). You'll have one large circular shape for the body, two small circular shapes for eyes, one larger circle or oval shape for the mouth/nose area and finally eight small triangle-like shapes at the top of your ghost's head that will become arms when connected later on.

Now take these pieces over to where you'll be gluing everything together and start by gluing an arm onto each side of the large circle shape so they point upwards toward its center point on either side—this will create what looks like two little arms sticking out from under its shoulders when complete! Then get creative with how many eyes and mouths/noses etc., you want your hanging ghosts to have!

The possibilities are endless here but remember not too distract from their overall shape because we want them looking as festive as possible. Once all pieces have been added go ahead now finish off by gluing each triangular piece directly under its respective eye/nose hole until both sides are completed then tie them together with twine around each neck area before looping them back down towards their feet where they should meet up perfectly without needing any adjustments whatsoever 😉

Mummies

One of the most classic Halloween decorations, mummies are easy to make and can be made with any number of materials. If you're looking for an easy way to create a mummy, try wrapping your friend in toilet paper. This is especially effective if you're using a friend who is known for being cheap!

Another option is to use burlap (or similar material) and wrap it around your friend until he or she resembles a classic mummy. This will look more realistic than the previously mentioned method because they aren't wrapped in toilet paper! However, this method requires more time and effort on your part as well as additional supplies like fabric glue or tape.

Hanging Bats

Hanging bats are a classic, and for good reason. They're easy to hang and can be used in any setting—from a front porch to your backyard. Hanging bats are a great way to decorate your home or yard. You can find hanging bats at almost any craft store or make them yourself using black construction paper. I recommend using a variety of sizes, shapes, and colors to really make your home look authentic!

Lighting

Halloween lighting can be a little tricky if you're not familiar with the holiday. The trick is to get the right kind of lighting for your space, because it can make all the difference between your guests having fun and staying away from your house!

The first thing you'll want to do is figure out what kind of mood you want to set—is this a spooky Halloween party or just an excuse for kids to knock on doors? If it's the latter, then it probably doesn't matter too much what kind of lights they are as long as they look cool. But if it's more of a haunted mansion feel, then we recommend LED lights over incandescent bulbs because they tend not to give off as much heat or make noise when turned on (and who knows how many people might have heart conditions?).

Additionally, LED bulbs don’t have filaments like traditional incandescents do which means that after about five minutes those bulbs start getting hot enough that touching them could cause burns! So those types are definitely out unless there's going somewhere where children won't be crawling around with their hands near them at all times (which would mean maybe not trusting anyone under 18).

Tombstones

Tombstones are a classic Halloween decoration that can be used year round. They are easy to make and can be used in your yard for any holiday.

• Paper mache: one of the easiest ways to create a tombstone. You will need newspaper, glue and water. Cut the newspaper into strips about ¼ inch wide and about 6 inches long or as long as you want your tombstone to be. Dip each strip of paper into glue and then stick it onto another piece of wet newspaper until all sides are covered with gluey paper strips except where you want the writing to go on your tombstone. Let dry overnight before removing from molding form (like an egg carton). If using an egg carton, use rubber bands around each section so they don't fall apart while drying out.
• Store Bought Tombstones: There are so many store bought tombstones your can get for your outdoor Halloween scene! My favorite are these tombstones from Amazon!

Zombie Hands

Zombie hands are a must have for any Halloween decor. They can be used to scare trick or treaters, decorate your home, hang up other decorations and make your house look like a haunted house. You can put them on fences, in trees or bushes, or even on top of tombstones! And if you don't have any zombies handy? No problem—just use some fake blood and make them look like they've been bitten by zombies! The possibilities are endless!

Halloween Sound Effects

Sound effects are a fun and easy way to add some extra fright to your Halloween decorating. They can be purchased at any local store or downloaded from the internet, but the most creative options are those that use household items to create the scariest soundscapes possible.

Once you've chosen which type of sound effect you want to make, grab a voice recorder (or even just use your phone as one) and start experimenting with different sounds until you find something fun and spooky that works for your home's space. It's important not only to listen closely while recording each individual noise but also consider how they will work together when played back in sequence: Experimenting with different combinations is key! If you are not into making your own sound effects, try this playlist on Spotify!

If you want to scare the bejeezus out of Trick-or-Treaters this Halloween, these decor ideas will do!

Here are a few tips to get you started on the right foot:

• If you want to scare the bejeezus out of Trick-or-Treaters this Halloween, these decor ideas will do!
• Use a variety of decorations. If you have a small space and only have room for one decoration, use it across multiple rooms. For example, if there is only space for one spiderweb in your house, put it up in the kitchen but also string some fake cobwebs along your hallway that leads into the kitchen area. This way, when people walk down that hall they'll see two webs which gives them more reason to be creeped out by your home's spooky atmosphere!
• Use a variety of themes. Consider having several different themes going simultaneously throughout your home; maybe try adding some mummies lying around or even ghostly figures hanging from trees outside (if possible). It'll definitely attract attention from neighbors as well as kids who pass by so keep those lights on all night long!
