50 Best Scary Halloween Decorations And 5 Great Theme Ideas

I LOVE these holiday projectors! Have you seen them? You can project a high res moving scene onto a window so that everyone outside can see it.

They have a handful of default Halloween & Christmas scenes installed. And, you can download many more on the companies site. These start for as low as $40.

I'll definitely be adding one to our house for the upcoming holiday season!

So, you can get this one as a CD, MP3, and streaming. That makes it so easy to add spooky music and sound effects to your front porch or party. And, the streaming version is FREE with your Amazon Prime membership.

A fog machine can make any cheap Halloween decoration instantly scary. And the fog acts as a great filler, connecting the decorations together in a polished way.

Like a fog machine, cobwebs are a great filler that makes your Halloween scene look bigger and connected. This one comes with spiders too!

Here's another gauzy filler that helps make your decorations look more pulled together and complete.

If you're not a fan of cobwebs, go for black creepy gauze as a filler.

I've been on a front porch with one of these twitching clowns. Spooky!

Hang this big guy from a tree or porch. This clown will send shivers down any spine!

This guy is creepy and huge!

Of course, Pennywise is a terrifying Halloween prop. This one is just a cardboard cutout, so keep it out of the rain.

Add this giant backdrop indoors or on a covered porch to pull your theme together.

Or this smaller creepy carnival curtain!

The clowns are attacking everyone inside this house.

This clown-themed creaking, slow moving creepy see-saws are always one of my top scary Halloween decorations!

Finish off that Halloween clown theme with this crazy clowns face in a window. That'll scare people!

Then, pass out the Halloween candy wearing a scary clown costume like this Pennywise costume.

Every good undead theme needs a scary zombie digging itself out of the ground!

Zombie-fy your windows with these reusable posters!

Zombie food and scary body parts in one gross package. 😉

This guy fits right in with Zombie Themed Scary Halloween Decorations.

Here's another poor victim of the Zombie army.

Not surprising, Zombie babies just aren't cute. But they are a creepy Halloween decoration.

How about a gross Zombie Grandpa to hang out with that Zombie baby?

The Undead have clearly made their way into this scary house.

How about this little Undead doll to scare your party guest? Hide this in the bathroom for a very unpleasant surprise. 😉

How about 5 huge spiders to climb your house or cover your yard.

Add 1 giant momma spider wither her babies with a large web to any spider themed Halloween House.

Hairy Giant Spiders! Need I say more?

So simple, but still one of my favorite spider themed scary Halloween decorations.

A spooky haunted doll with sound effects is perfect for a old Victorian theme.

Here's another creepy antique doll making spooky sounds. I can just imagine a whole porch full of creepy dolls being incredibly scary!

Here's a Granny that I wouldn't let kiss me on the cheek. This whole victorian or old fashioned theme is one of my favorite!

Anything old fashioned and spooky is instantly one of the best scary Halloween Decorations, right?!

What haunted Victorian house is complete without ghosts in an old mirror?

Creepy Victorian children slowly moving on a See Saw is absolutely fantastic, in the creepiest way.

Another creepy doll for your Victorian theme!

And, this old fashioned ghost door cover is absolute terrifying!

A shrilling Grim Reaper will put a chill down any spine.

Another Grim Reaper skeleton with real scare power. I used to have one of these hanging in a closet. It was a fun way to welcome guests to our house. 😉

Some of those skeletons are still digging themselves out of their graves!

Add this guy to your porch ceiling for extra scare.

And, this raven would look great on your porch railing or in a tree.

I love these door covers in any theme. It's an easy way to amp up the Scary Halloween Theme without spending much money.

Those skeletons need some realistic headstones to make this graveyard look even scarier!

This skeleton themed inflatable is a quick and easy way to decorate for Halloween.

Here's a mask that works perfectly with this theme. Wear it while passing out candy. Or just pop it in a window to make your Halloween house even scarier.
