Outdoor Halloween decorations

Why keep all the terror inside? These outdoor Halloween decorations will have the trick-or-treaters quaking in their boots:

Hanging Lighted Glowing Witch Hat Decorations

These fun witch hats will light up your yard after dark and make your neighbors look twice. They come on a 33-foot cable with eight different light modes and a built-in timer. They are also waterproof, meaning they can survive October showers.

Sler Animated Lightup Talking Eyeball Doorbell

Visitors to your house will think twice about using this kooky doorbell. When the button is pushed, a giant green eyeball opens up and guests are greeted by spooky noises. It’s the ideal outdoor Halloween decoration for scaring trick-or-treaters!

The Dog Skull Knocker is another hair-raising way for guests to attract your attention. When someone knocks, the skull starts barking viciously and the eyes light up red.

Home Halloween decorations

With the right Halloween decorations, there is almost unlimited scope for terrifying your guests. These products should help you create a perfect house of horrors.

Halloween Finger Candles

Candles usually add a warm glow to any room. But these gruesome finger candles will send chills down your spine. They come in a variety of colors, including a realistic skin tone.

When someone walks past this motion-activated Grim Reaper, the manifestation of death will laugh. At the same time, his eyes will glow red. We recommend hanging this decoration in the hallway to greet visitors.

Halloween Pumpkin LED Lights

If you want to get in the spirit without giving your kids nightmares, these pumpkin lights should do nicely. Powered by AA batteries, they glow orange just like full-size Jack-o’-lanterns. They are pretty energy efficient, too.

At the other end of the scaring spectrum, this full-size zombie bride is truly terrifying. When she hears your voice, her eyes light up and the alien baby head in her stomach will start moving. This is definitely not one for the faint of heart.

Halloween party accessories

If you are planning to celebrate Halloween with a get together, these decorations and accessories should give your guests the chills.

This unique Bluetooth speaker looks like a nightmare but sounds like a dream. The speaker also detaches from the main spider, so you can play around with this futuristic arachnid.

You can pour out the refreshments in style with this decapitated decanter. Made from glass, it can hold 39 ounces of your favorite liquor. The question is, will anyone be brave enough to try the drink?

If you prefer to drink beer from the bottle, this fun inflatable will keep your refreshments ice cold. The PVC casket can also be filled with candy and toys to keep everyone entertained. Be careful not to upset the resident zombie.

Amazlab Halloween Fake Blood Bags

There is surely nothing more gross than drinking from a blood bag. These fakes look the part, and you can fill them with any beverage. They even have a realistic drip tube which you can use as a grisly straw.
