For Halloween, some people go all out and turn their front yards into a scene straight out of a scary movie. Whether you are truly turning your home into a haunted house, or just want to put a few Halloween decorations out to get in the holiday spirit, there are a number of options to choose from.

• The dead are one of the most iconic figures of Halloween so placing a few skeletons around your yard or even living room is a great way to add some Halloween decor. If skeletons are too big for your house then just the skull is fine. Placing a few skulls on your dinner table or porch is a good way to decorate without taking up too much room.
• Don’t forget about the ghosts either! Hang some up from your porch, balcony, tree, anything! They make garden ghosts that stand up in your front yard and are perfect for scaring the tiny trick or treaters. Some light up and make noises as you walk by which is perfect for when people are coming to your door for candy.
• We can’t forget about Jack-o-lanterns now can we? Carving pumpkins has been a Halloween tradition for a long time and is a perfect way to decorate the inside or outside of your house. And the best part is that you get to make pumpkin seeds with all the insides!
• Fake spider webs are a cheap and easy way to make any house look scary. Nothing says creepy like walking up to a huge spiderweb in a doorway.
