Here are my decorations this year...

I like contemporary horror characters.

All of the above! You can't have too much in my opinion. Here's our display last year. We get lots of comments, but sadly our street doesn't get many trick or treaters.

One more close up of my "wind chimes". And the fountain was full of eyeballs, spider rings and rubber bats. I let kids take a creepy treat in addition to candy.

And 2011...Gosh this is making me want to get to decorating!

i like it

Love the dry ice idea

My daughter is scary..

I just decorate in fall pumpkins and leaves and scarecrows and fall flowers.

Canadian here. Our Thanksgiving Day is tomorrow. Going to worry about the ghosts and goblins when Thanksgiving is over! Really like the dry ice and the antique cauldron!

My 3 year old made the pumpkin for her teacher. We decorated our mailbox today.

I only do Fall decorating now. When my children were young, I would always do a large Halloween project on the front porch. We don't have any young children on our block, so I've decided that doing only Fall is nicer and just as much fun. I always use lots of pumpkins, mums, large gourds and make a new Fall wreath for the front door each year. I love finding new arrangements for the pumpkins and co. , and searching the net or my brain for a great wreath design is a new challenge each year. I can leave all of this in place until a bit after Thanksgiving before replacing it with Christmas!

As I can see above, lots of scary ideas. Mine is not scary but I like to sculpt pumpkins using patterns bought at the store. I try to get more challenging ones every year.

I love all of the above! I love Halloween!!

Great ideas of warped minds:)

For several years we have experienced this Halloween spider attack. The neighbor kids love it.

Not sure what part of Canada Silverscreenstar is from but the last I heard Halloween up north was still on Oct 31st.

Neighborhood kids love my pair of guard lions, decorated appropriately for the season!

Judithharwell, OMG, I hate spiders! I got chills just looking at your photo!!!!!!

I think the best decorations make you feel like you are walking into a dream state. Colored lights, spider webs, and sureal scenes that make you feel a nervous floating feeling when you walk into it. I love the purple lights. We like to make it look like it is actuall home decor - just abandoned and haunted.

LED Halloween lights are the way to go! Trick-or-treaters visit at night and what better way than to decorate with lights. EnvironmentalLights.com sells all kinds of LED lighting, including LED rope light and controllers to create spooky effects.

@Michele Sherritt - Canada celebrates their Thanksgiving in MID-October, not at the end of November as in the USA. Regional differences, don'cha know:)

Here in the UK, there is no Thanksgiving Day and I miss it. I always try to roast a big fat hen on the same day all the folks back in the States are doing a turkey (over here turkeys aren't usually in the grocery stores until closer to Christmas) and I try to get the street light cam from NYC online so I can see the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Regional differences - gotta love 'em, they make the world go 'round:):)

My favorites are our zombie flamingos. Always get comments on them!

Having fun with the camera to add drama

Pumpkins & mums & fall flower wreath on the door with a burlap bow - but I love passing by the houses with the ghosts in the trees; I jump almost every time!

Pumpkins are my favorite for Halloween. I think it's the fun of carving them that gets me!

I think the tombstones are clever and unique! They make we smile. PERFECT for a family with children!

I am having more and more fun every Halloween! Dollar Store and Deals are fabulous for inexpensive decorations. Tough to get our pumpkins here in South Florida and Boca too early as they just rot so I wait until a few days before. Happy Halloween y'all. PS...my RE/MAX office gets into the "spirit" bahaha.

dry ice fog, with jack o lanterns up the steps. 'spider webs' in the trees. headstones set up in the front yard; with candles in the windows. a white sheet hung on a tree branch looks like a ghost at night!

Skeletons Educational too And Day of the Dead

The spookiest house in our neighbourhood is spooky all year long. Never see anyone come or go, trees are overgrown, it's big and mysterious and very outdated.

I just LOVE pumpkin carving. I wish pumpkins were around longer in the UK.

The scariest house in our neighborhood has a huge Grimm Reaper on the front lawn (twice the size of the house in height). It has red eyes that glow...and they hung trash bags that look like dead bodies in the trees.

Pumpkins, bales of hay and barrels of mums

I love the skeletons' design...different than the traditional pumpkins setting.

Pumpkins, pumpkins, some gourds, and more pumpkins. All colors, shapes, and sizes.

Love the moodiness and effects of dry ice.

Traditional jack o'lanterns are awesome, but I also like to make the house look creepy with a murder of crows and rat silhouettes everywhere.

I love adding spooky birds to the usual Halloween stuff. We have quite a collection of owls and ravens!

Gotta love the pumpkins

Pure Home, I love the cat pumpkins and the table legs with shoes and socks!

Our neighborhood isn't decorated yet but I can't wait for Halloween!

We have a long winding path to our front door that I make into a spooky path by making consecutive arches with lights , spider webs, skeletons and ghost. I always make it on Halloween day as a surprise for the neighborhood. We have pumpkins, gourds and mums decorating our front before then.

A motion activated spider.which drops down and makes a frightening noise. Spooky but not too scary.

All the above!! Halloween in my favorite holiday! Besides Christmas lol

Pure Home, love your pics. I've used the white pumpkins with bittersweet wrapped around them...so pretty. Your fun table legs made me think of this which I saw recently.

Surrealistic Vignettes!
I love the eeriness of haunted maze's vignettes. The authentic looking living room with strange lighting is like a weird dream- unsettling without gore!
My most favorite scenes were from Mother Noose's Scary Tales maze at Knott's (Berry)Scary Farm,(2002)
