If you haven’t noticed by the onslaught of 12-foot tall Home Depot skeletons in your neighborhood, we’re in peak allspice-sprinkling, bulk candy-stashing season. And while it feels fair to say that Halloween decor traditionally fawns over the front lawn, there’s something especially gratifying about pivoting focus to Halloween kitchen and dining room decorations. After all, where else is a cast-iron cauldron supposed to live?
Spooky season decor thrives in the kitchen, from pumpkin-shaped Dutch ovens to bat-emblazoned dish towels. If you’re looking for kid-friendly or kitsch decor, I suggest creeping Etsy for retro cutouts and festive, fabric garlands; if you want to curate a spooky-meets-sumptuous tablescape, seek out some moody, dark glass Champagne coupes and a flight of ghostly candles to haunt the table runner. Whether your budget is $20 or $100, we have plucked some of the season’s best Halloween kitchen decor to get you feeling a little more goulish.
Dim the lights, and let’s find you a creepy candle or three.
