Windows curtain on Halloween party

A Halloween party is never complete without proper décor. Windows fall in the list of ‘décor-able’ items. If you are planning to have a proper Halloween party at your place and are in need of a perfect party backdrop to give trick or treat-ers a complete fright as they walk by the house then here is a list of last-minute ideas to get you going.

Creepiness Condemned

Creepiness will be overboard for a castle style haunted place (the look for your windows) if it is filled with the oldest style Halloween horror, yet with a creepy contemporary twist. Board up your windows with faux-painted foam boards for a simple run-down haunted look that never fails to give you the scares.
To avoid onlookers stealing a glance at the cool party inside, you can board up the entire window.

Side Lighting

Being a last-minute planner, neither do you have too much time nor a lot of spontaneity; yet you want to get the audience the best of Halloween.  You can just hang up a cobweb with a might spider at its tail.

This is really easy to make just out of yarn, giving your front door a spooky look, if placed and lighted up at the correct moments. The cobweb can be lit up with the spider in blazing red light for a more detailed and frightening feel.

Haunted Castle Windows

Ever passed those creepy castles and felt the creep running through your veins? Remember Dracula? Ever felt that bewitching factor engross you when you pass by castles at the onset of a night?

Have your castle silhouettes decorated in a creepy style with construction foam, to make way for the ultimate creep that will run down the veins of the guests as they enter your homes.

Bat Cave

The Bat Cave was dark and purple, and it had numerous dark bats flying all around. Well, it is not really that hard to achieve. Just walk in, buy a purple table cover and paper bat silhouettes. It helps your windows get a 2 for 1 effect. You can always shine lights from the outside, to illuminate your windows for the ultimate Halloween party decoration. Turn on the lights inside to cast fluttering silhouettes for viewers to have a view from the very pavement.

Deadly Draperies

Remember the Psycho days? Bring the 1960’s horror back with the same feel in your house, by simply draping black cheesecloth together with an ominous floating skull over your windows. It will give your house the feel of a dark entity lurking inside, for any passerby.

Annabelle Style

Come Halloween, and there is no match to spooking your audience in an Annabelle style rocking chair, just by the window. Have the lights dimmed or have them to be set off at a certain point of time on a sudden, to scare any passer-by right to death.
