A ridiculously cool-looking icicle candle that looks like something straight out of The Haunted Mansion once the wax starts melting. Might we suggest to all you foolish mortals to place these on your mantel for a spooky decor upgrade?
Amazon
Of course, this wax will collect at the bottom of the candle as it melts, so make sure you place this on a large heatproof plate so the pooling wax doesn’t damage your furniture.
Promising review: “This candle is so elegant and burns amazingly! On top of that it smells fantastic. I lit it and within a few minutes, I could smell it in the next room. High quality, gorgeous design, and very affordable. The packaging is impressive as well…..I saved the box in hopes of finding it a home!” —Jessica Clegg
Get it from Amazon for $25.97+ (available in three sizes and nine colors).
2. A set of two buffalo plaid throw pillow covers if you’re looking for a seasonally appropriate way to freshen up your couch. Just looking at these pillow covers will make you want to pick up a pumpkin spice latte and start watching scary movies.
Promising review: “Love these pillows. Going into the fall and holiday season these pillow are amazing. I bought the red checkered pillows and they are a canvas-type material. Not super soft but they keep their shape very well. I just throw these covers right over my everyday pillows and they fit great.” —Natasha
Get them from Amazon for $10.99+ (available in seven sizes and 11 colors).
3.
A set of nine flameless LED candles to place around your house to create that coveted slightly haunted aura you’re ~dying~ to give your house this October. The best part is that you can leave these on all night and not have to worry about the dangers of open flames.
Amazon
Promising review: “These nine flameless candles are beautiful and the remote is easy to use. They come with two remotes so that you can separate the set to keep some in different rooms. They flicker and are wax coated so they feel and look realistic. There are settings to dim them or make them brighter, to flicker like real candles or have solid light and there are several timers to choose from (2-hour, 4-hour, 8-hour) that allows them to turn off on their own.” —Wendy Ou
Get the set from Amazon for $23.99 (also available in a set of 12).
4.
A 20″ x 28″ poster I’m convinced goblins and witches would have hanging up in their own residences. This vintage-looking poster is sure to get compliments from all your guests this fall.
amazon.com
Promising review: “I love my mineralogie poster so much! It’s high quality, it came quickly, and it came in perfect condition. It goes so beautifully on my dorm room wall! Thank you! (Side note the language on it is French!)” —Lauren Johnson

Frankie Print Co. is a small business that makes personalized woven blankets, pillows, and printable wall art.
Promising review: “This is the CUTEST Ouiji board blanket I could find on the entire internet! The details are great and work perfectly for a witchy aesthetic. The blanket itself is lightweight.

Some peel-and-stick wallpaper with a fun constellation print to create a subtly celestial backdrop for the rest of your spooky decor. We think it’s ~written in the stars~ that you put this up in your house ASAP.
Amazon
Check out our comprehensive guide to buying wallpaper online.
Promising review: “Love, love, love this wallpaper!!! It is beautiful and unique, refined and elegant, and heavy-duty quality. I found it super easy to install, though I opted to use it for a room border versus full wall coverage. I also found it very forgiving, allowing me to pull it back off and adjust areas without leaving permanent dents in the design. It gave my son’s bedroom a whole new look and I have gotten lots of compliments on this wallpaper!” —MB
Get it from Amazon for $28.79+ (available in three colors).
7. Or this galaxy clock that looks like something the Sanderson Sisters themselves would hang on the walls in their cottage. How else would they keep track of time to make sure they suck the lives out of the children of Salem before sunrise?!
Get it from Redbubble for $32.55 (available in three frame colors and four hand colors).
8.

Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
10.
A poseable jewelry holder capable of giving you a ~hand~ whenever you’re getting ready in the morning.
Amazon, amazon.com
Promising review: “I love it. Adjusting the fingers was a bit hard at first, because I was afraid I would break one, but they are actually VERY durable and more flexible than I thought. No reason to be scared, I twisted those suckers where I wanted them to be and BAM. It’s beautiful. I love it. I can’t stop looking at it. Best birthday present to myself ever.” —Michan
Get it from Amazon for $35.18.
11. A five-piece glass-and-iron vase set that looks like lab test tubes — fill them with dried flowers for a haunting aesthetic or even some fake creepy crawlers or colored goo for a mad scientist vibe.

Get it from Wayfair for $49.99.

Promising review: “Thought it was cool based on the pics online, so I was tempted but not sold on it. First glance in store and I had to grab it! It is high quality, the design is really cool, not weirdly shaped for a skull, heavyweight, and the lights make it even more amazing! Definitely a piece for everyone’s Halloween collection. I may get another one (or two!) before the season is up!” —AngieA
Get it from Bath & Body Works for $49.95.
14.
An impressively detailed, dual color moon-shaped light because what’s more Halloween-appropriate than a full moon? You’ll love being able to hold the light in your hand and pretend you’re harnessing some very powerful magic.
amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review: “I originally bought the 7-inch moon for my husband as a gift of ‘I love you to the moon and back’ for our anniversary… Well, I loved his moon so much that I kept stealing it from our bedroom and taking it to the living room. So I bought myself the 5.9-inch moon to compare sizes and have one to call my own. As it turns out, the slightly smaller 5.9-inch one is just as amazing as the seven-inch. These moons charge up fast with a cord (with a cool ‘blue moon’ color when charging) and then once charged, they are completely free from cords or any connection dependence. They light up with a very detailed real moon surface design in white or yellow, and it will totally mesmerize you. You can literally ‘hold the whole moon in your hand’ and use it as a cordless and battery-free lamp, a nightlight, a lantern or quasi-candle in the dark. The wood stand is sleek and super easy to assemble, and is a perfect accent to any room décor. These moons are the best gift for friends, family, co-workers, kids, pets and spouses. My #1 purchase pick for 2020!” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in four sizes).
15. An anatomical sketch for a morbidly heart-warming way to up the level of macabre of your current gallery wall. Place it next to your favorite succulent to keep the botanical theme going.
Promising review: “This photo with frame is so much more than I expected. The quality is well worth the money. This print is my favorite piece I own.” —Jallen212
Get it from Urban Outfitters for $19+ (available in four sizes and 14 frame colors).
16. Or this antiqued paper tapestry that just screams “abandoned haunted house” — but in the most sophisticated, chic way possible.
Promising review: “This piece is incredible! I saw it in a blog and had to have it! It’s more beautiful than I could have imagined. I hung it with adhesive putty in all four corners. It is NOT thin paper, but a thicker kind that is durable. It’s my favorite purchase I’ve made in a long time! Photos don’t do it justice.” —Karonzins
Get it from Anthropologie for $178.
17.
A bed canopy to shroud yourself in the ghostly delights of Halloween from the second you wake up to the moment you go to bed at night.
amazon.com
Promising review: “I LOVE the canopy! Great for the price. It takes a minute to figure out which way it goes on the bed but don’t get discouraged, you’ll figure it out. I opened it and threw it over the top of the canopy and figured it out that way. It was the easiest way for me. I did have one concern. It seems to be a tiny bit too small for a king bed if you have an actual canopy post bed. This one is more so meant to hang from the ceiling but you can make it work. I tied the hook strings around the bedpost and it holds great (see pics). It’s a great canopy especially for the price.” —Shonteka
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (also available in grey and white).
18.
A dried pampas grass bundle that you can use to dress up a fall tablescape — OR you can sprinkle them around your Halloween decorations to give the illusion of dried, decaying greenery.
Amazon, Jasmin Sandal/BuzzFeed
Promising review: “I wanted to find a floral arrangement for my vase and I stumbled upon this pampas grass plant and it was perfect! You can pretty much arrange the pieces how you want because they come individually wrapped. A great buy.” —Crystal Edwards
Get it from Amazon for $21.99.
19.
Or this bundle of faux flowers that come in orange and yellow, both of which will look great among the rest of your Halloween decor. It’ll be a much-appreciated pop of color amid all the grim, dark decorations.
amazon.com
Promising review: “Simply gorgeous. Literally not one bud fell off during transit, nor when I was ‘fluffing’ the individual stems out before placement. So glad I ordered! They were exactly what I was looking for to go in my ghost pitcher. :)” —J. I. Racioppo
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in seven colors).
20.

Bijou Candles is a queer-owned small business that creates candles inspired by “all things witchy.”
Promising review: “I’ve been eyeing these candles for so long and I’m so glad I finally bought them!

Get a set of three from Walmart for $20.
24. A create-a-set book collection so you can furnish your bookshelves with used copies that all stick to one color scheme — may we suggest ordering a set of all-black books and placing them among some skulls, fake cobwebs, and mini pumpkins?
Promising review: “Worth every penny. If you’ve been looking for decorative books, then look no more — you’ve found your shop! Colors are true to photos and I love how they were real books! Not those hallow, fake ones you see often. This made decorating very easy, fast shipping, and quality suburb. Will be ordering more from here in the future! Thanks!” —JHarris

An owl or a cat figurine to place on a windowsill, an empty shelf, or anywhere else that just needs just a *touch* of Halloween.
Target
Promising review: “This cat is a great addition to the Halloween decorations I currently have. I used it to spruce up a little corner of my home office. And, it works with other decorations I currently have. The cat itself is lightweight and has a nice gold sheen to it. I was worried the gold would flake off in a glittery dust; but I have not noticed that at all and I have had it for a little while now and handled it quite a bit. I also like how the cat is done in a realistic manner. Too many look cartoony but this is a classy cat. Overall, great addition to my Halloween decorations!” —RuthiesMom
Get them from Target: the owl figurine for $5 (available in three colors) and the gold cat for $5.

Promising Review: “Black isn’t for everyone, but I love this chandelier in my bathroom. I bought a tan Roman shade and this stands out against that backdrop. Looks really pretty when lit up. The details are nice. It gives off just enough light.” —ellen2822
Get it from Amazon for $174 (also available in pink and white).
28.
An ornate black frame to display photos of your loved ones…or black-and-white photos of your favorite characters from spooky films and TV shows, as this reviewer brilliantly did below.
amazon.com
Promising review: “I’m very happy I got this frame. It looks beautiful. Good quality, has some weight to it, and goes great with my decor. I’m considering getting it in the largest size to put one of my wedding photos in. It came in a well-protected package (although I don’t like that styrofoam is still used but that’s a personal preference). I definitely recommend this frame. Looks better in person than in the pictures.” —Melanie
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in five sizes and seven colors).
29.

A beautiful, dainty area rug with a color scheme that will appeal to even the coldest of souls.
Amazon
Promising review: “Beautiful rug!!! This rug is exactly what I was looking for to place in my kitchen. It arrived quickly and was rolled up and wrapped in plastic. It took a couple of days for it to lay flat at the corners. I love how it looks and I couldn’t be happier with the quality, nice and thick and vacuums easily. The color of the roses is not very vibrant, but just right. It was everything I was hoping for when I saw the picture of it. I also purchased the 8-foot-long runner; they match perfectly.” —MLeo
Get it from Amazon for $47.03+ (available in seven sizes).
31.
A skull figurine with a compartment in the back perfect for holding makeup brushes, pens, Halloween candy, really anything you’d like to store — no bones about it.
