Halloween is approaching fast and you’re looking for new decoration ideas. With our unique Halloween door decs, you’ll be the talk of the neighborhood this October.

Check out the following ideas for the spookiest celebration in 2022!

Our Top 15 Favorite Decorating Ideas for Halloween

Believe it or not, but on Halloween, the average American spends more than $85. With that in mind, here are some haunting and cute ideas for different budgets.

Some of these suggestions will appeal to parents with kids the most, while others are more appropriate for true horror fans.

Scroll down to get inspired!

1. Light up the Entryway

Light up your home and welcome your guests this season in the most festive way possible. If your front porch has columns, we recommend wrapping the lights around them for a fancy look. 

For this entrance idea, we suggest you go with plain lights because colorful ones may look cheery and more appropriate for Christmas decoration. Still, there are no rules so you might be able to incorporate colorful ones into an original deco concept, too. 

If you want to keep it subtle and mysterious, dimmed fairy lights will do the trick.

Buy String Lights

2. A Pumpkin Fest!

Colorful Pumpkins

We suggest getting the most beautiful, round pumpkins you can find. If you’re feeling extra crafty, think of intricate shapes to carve into them. You can even use some of your Thanksgiving decorations for this idea.

Plus, you can get a few artificial pumpkins in different colors as well to further spice up the overall design, or make it more kid friendly.

Buy Artificial Pumpkins

3. Lanterns

Halloween Lanterns

For a more haunting look, pair your pumpkins up with Halloween-theme lanterns in different sizes.

One of the most awesome things about lanterns is that you can use them practically anywhere, not only for the front porch. They’re fantastic in indoor spaces like living rooms and bedrooms, too.

Buy Halloween Lanterns

4. Spooky Signs

Halloween Signs

Signs are one of the most popular Halloween door decorations ever. Whether you choose a “Beware” or “Enter with Caution” sign, you’re good to go. 

However, if you want to surprise your trick-or-treaters, choose something more original like “Eat, Drink, and Be Scary” or an even more original “The Witch Is In”. This way, you’ll prepare your guests for what might be lurking inside!

Of course, we always suggest purchasing hanging door decorations made from sturdier, high-quality materials. This way, they’ll last you for years of Halloween fun to come.

5. Witchy Details

Witch Shoes

For this vibe, add any details to your front porch that simply scream ‘witch’. 

For instance, you can incorporate an old broomstick, vintage boots, or tiny bubbling cauldrons into the design. If you’ve got children, they might find it fun to also have a couple of witch cardboard cutouts outside the door.

Buy Witch Shoes

6. Hanging Witch Props

Witches

If you want more boldness and rawness in your decorating, just bring a few wicked witches covered with cobwebs straight to your doorstep. But beware, these Halloween front door ideas may be too terrifying for some people.

7. Don’t Forget Spiders

Spiders

Unless you or your family members have arachnophobia, there’s no reason not to get a door decoration in the shape of this creature. For instance, if you want to make your door look like the entrance to an abandoned graveyard, this detail is sure to contribute to the creepy atmosphere you’re creating. 

For a more realistic look, go for spiders made of high-quality fleece material.

8. Stickers

Halloween Stickers

Definitely one of the easiest, fool-proof door decorations is getting stickers for your front door. 

They’re super convenient if you wish to include as many different shapes as possible, like spiders, crows, bats, stalker eyes, vintage hats, or brooms… anything Halloween-related. And the best part is—children absolutely love them!

Buy Halloween Stickers

9. Banners

Hanging Decoration

Leave the “Live, Laugh, Love” banner for another time of the year, and replace it with a cool Halloween-inspired “Hocus Pocus” banner. This entryway detail is very noticeable and you don’t need a lot of additional materials to complete the look. 

Another great thing about this idea is that you can always put stickers or paint more details on it, thereby adding a personal touch. Also, if you don’t want to create a horror-filled scene, you can go for more cartoonish banners.

Buy Hanging Decoration

10. Life-Size Skeleton Sticker

Skeleton Sticker

Not only is this one of the most popular door decor trends, but it’s also one of the easiest to set up. It’s also easy to remove and won’t damage the surface. 

This is definitely among the most popular door decorations for Halloween, whether you’re hosting a party or just welcoming trick-or-treaters. 

Buy Door Sticker

11. Add a Colorful Wreath for Kids

Halloween Wreath

Get a big Halloween wreath in season-appropriate colors like orange, black, and purple. You can buy one that’s already decorated with candy corn ornaments, spider webs, cartoonish bows, and pumpkins—even its own legs! Just don’t let it run off with your Halloween candy! 

Buy Halloween Wreath

12. LED Wreath

LED Wreath

Do you want something flashier or more striking than a goofy-looking wreath? You can get fun, unique wreaths that feature ghosts, witches, and spiders that glow in the dark. 

To make the atmosphere even spookier, we suggest pairing the Halloween-inspired LED wreath with ghastly banners and signs.

Buy LED Decoration

13. A Ghost at Your Front Door

Ghost Sticker

If you intend to make your front door area look like an entrance to a haunted house, you’re going to need a ghost or two. You can make one yourself with the good old white sheet trick and hang it outside. 

If you have a white door, you can place black mouth-, nostril-, and eye-shaped stickers on it to create a ghost-like image.

Buy Door Stickers

14. Spider Webs

Spider Web

Set the Halloween mood more successfully with a realistic-looking spider prop and a stretchable web.

Make sure you use props made of thick and durable materials because this will ensure their longevity. Also, it’s a brilliant idea to find a spider with bendable legs. This way, you can position it any way you like.

We’re sure your kids (and all the other kids in the neighborhood) will be amazed by this detail!

Buy Spider Web

15. 3D Skeleton

Skeleton

If you’re searching for a spooky and fun way to welcome your party guests or trick-or-treaters, consider a standing skeleton made of metal or some other durable material. 

To complete the look, decorate it with bows, stickers, hanging signs, or even pieces of clothing, like a hat or a goofy tie to make it look funny.

If you have the time, you can always turn this into a fully DIY project and create your own standing skeleton from scratch.

Buy Funny Skeleton

Conclusion

We hope these decorating ideas helped inspire you to spookify your front door just the right way and unleash your creative side! 

After all, Halloween is all about having fun, and enjoying and sharing the spirit of this eerie holiday with our loved ones.
