Frame an assortment of creepy items and images in a gallery wall. Showcase the wall via candlelight: Everything appears scarier under a candle’s glow.
Of course, a spooky tablescape is a must. The black netting along the base of the candleholder creates an eerie sense of fog, and a ripped runner looks like spiderwebs inching across the table.
Nothing is spookier than an unexpected scare, like a skull hidden amongst an innocent pumpkin display…
… or a bowl full of eyeballs in the midst of everyday décor.
A very simple way to set a spooky scene is by placing lit candles in front of a mirror. The reflections alone will send you running for the covers.
Have some fun with wall decals, like these mice along the stairs. A glimpse of one of these unexpected fellas out of the corner of your eye is sure to make you shriek.
Console tables and mantles are the perfect setting for bone-chilling décor. Mummies and skull-laden candles are sure to create a scare. Even the photograph on the wall adds to the spooky allure!
