50 Times People Decorated Their Houses For Halloween And Left Everyone Speechless (New Pics)
It’s that time of the year when we roll up our sleeves, get into the creative mood and make something so spookily wonderful that it sends chills down the neighbors' spine. And while you still have time to figure out what you are gonna wear for Halloween (or shall we stop pretending and just face the fact that we all are going to dress as the green-tracksuited players from Squid Game), the house interior and exterior can’t wait.
So in order to get your Halloween decor ideas flowing, we compiled a collection of some of the scariest and most creative endeavors that turned people’s houses into something that looks straight out of a spooktacular movie set.
From hyperreal zombie apocalypse exterior decor that would make my heart skip a beat if I was to pass by the house to a corpse edition “Woman Yelling at a Cat” staged in real life, the imagination is simply endless. Scroll down, upvote your favorite decors and share your own ideas and Halloween projects in the comment section!

Mine got Vandalized just for putting up the US flag 🇺🇸 . Not a trump supporter.
Load More Replies...LOL, looks like I've triggered some dislikes from that very group 😂
Load More Replies...I live in an older suburb and over the last 10-15 years smaller plots of land have gotten bought up and houses put on them. Of course long-time residents take exception to this, and I can see both sides of the coin; these lots are small, arguably too small for a house, yet it is an attractive neighborhood. One such new resident put up a house on a busy corner that doesn't match the neighborhood aesthetic; modern architecture what whatnot. Turns out new resident is a surgeon of some kind, so $$$$$. He put up one of these "I did my own research" decorations and I've gone from on-the-fence to LOVING this new neighbor of mine. (And for reference of what kind of neighborhood it is, I've got 3 progressive signs in my yard that keep getting vandalized and stolen. I keep replacing them and I put up a small sign that I donate $25 each to Trevor Project, BLM and Planned Parenthood every time one is stolen). Happy times!
As with those who vandalize cars with Christian fish logos modified to Darwin logos, their reasoning is “if the source they mock is mine, it’s mine to destroy.”
I had not heard of Christian fish being modified before. I never viewed that symbol as mocking, just a sign that says "I'm a Christian".

Bored Panda reached out to Black, the creator and editor of “Halloween Love,” a website for all things Halloween and horror. The project has quite a loyal fanbase on Facebook with 17k people tuning in for some spooky entertainment.
So we asked Black what Halloween decoration trend is really buzzing this year, and he said that he’s seen a ton of people buying “these giant, 12-foot skeletons.” In fact, the 12-foot Home Depot skeleton is selling out already ahead of Halloween and going viral on TikTok. Although the skeleton will set you back $299 if you're lucky enough to find one in a store, the resellers are listing them on Ebay for double, triple and even more than the original price. One listing sold the item for a whopping $1,200, making it a real sought-after Halloween luxury.
It's Almost That Time

"End Of The World" House Float
It’s called the Kraken House and it’s right here in New Orleans! They have a great Instagram too.
As soon as I saw it I was thinking that looks like New Orleans lol
Load More Replies...Terrifying
This is in Holyoke!!! I'm in shock that I know this and have seen it several times.
The good news is that making a unique Halloween decoration is not only about getting the trendiest props. Black said that “anything you actually make yourself is going to be inherently unique,” referring to the growing DIY culture of making spooktacular decor from scratch. “The only thing you can really get wrong is not having fun with it,” he said.
Moreover, if you’re wondering what Halloween props never go out of style, Black said “you can never go wrong with orange Halloween lights. I keep them up indoors year-round.” And when it comes to Halloween dress-up looks for this year, Black said that we can expect to see “A LOT of Squid Game costumes.”

Load More Replies...I wrapped my friends in duct tape and staged them out in the yard. No one knew.
Has anyone called the cops yet? A friend put a zombie on his roof one year, and a zombie in a tree one year, and the cops came both times. Nervous neighbors I guess.

to the teacher...you are awesome. to the principal... wow sad life huh ?
Imagine, children liking to come to school because it's fun and engaging. The principal is an idiot.
To be fair that could be mildly distracting for the students. But classrooms still shouldn't be boring like a prison.
No offense but I have samhainophobia and wouldn’t want to work in that classroom. That looks like more of a prison than regular classrooms to me.

Love it! I did a pirate themed mad scientist display a few years ago (think Dio Darma's Haitian hut from Pirate's of the Caribbean). Dollar Tree has a huge selection of bugs, snakes and creepy crawlie things that grow in water. I bought a ton of glass jars in all different shapes & sizes from Goodwill. Along with my pirate paraphernalia, some food coloring and rubber rats it was really cool. (Alas, I can't find the pictures).
My great grandma used to make these weird faces out of old pantyhose and put them in jars, it scared the s**t out of my sister lol

Since you are a former JW, here is a story I must tell. Many years ago, I was aware that some JWs were working our neighborhood, so I grabbed my cat Ragamuffin and waited. When they came to the door, they gave their expected spiel. I then said, "Thank you, but I am a practicing witch, and this," as I stroked Ragamuffin, "is my familiar." They left skid marks. (Too bad Ragamuffin was a long-haired tortie and not black!)
