When to Start Decorating for Halloween?

If you’re a dedicated fan of Halloween, there’s no need for an excuse to start celebrating. Rest assured, you don’t have to wait until October or even September to get into the festive spirit and showcase your love for Halloween! While the official holiday falls on October 31, the planning and excitement for Halloween can last all year long.

The Ideal Time to Put up Halloween Decorations

While Labor Day is the most common time when people start adorning their homes with Halloween decorations, if you’re eager to start earlier, don’t let anything or anyone hold you back. This is especially true for those who may have missed out on the full Halloween experience last year. Now is your chance to make Halloween 2023 one for the record books! The joy of Halloween lies in infusing your own unique style into the holiday. Whether you’re into classic pumpkins and orange and black decor or prefer a hauntingly scary Halloween home design, the choice is yours.

Spirit Halloween Stores and Online Availability

For those wanting an early start, Spirit Halloween stores will begin opening in early August, with our flagship store in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey, opening its doors on July 29. However, our online store is available year-round. This means that July isn’t too early to start decorating for Halloween! Keep checking our online store as we’ll be continuously adding new Halloween decor in the forthcoming weeks and months. We have everything you need, from outdoor Halloween decorations to completely spookify your lawn, to indoor Halloween decor that allows every inch of your home to reflect your taste.

Suggestions for Early Halloween Decorations

If you decide to decorate for Halloween early, here are a few suggestions on how to go about it. Remember, there’s no need to put out all your Halloween decorations at once. If you’re someone who loves to fill every room in your home and your lawn with Halloween haunts, take your time and reveal them gradually. This will keep your neighbors intrigued and eagerly coming back to see what you’ve added.

Consider starting with one or two items in July, adding a few more in August, and building up the collection throughout September. Then, save the grand finale, like a terrifying animatronic, for October. Alternatively, surprise people when they least expect it by introducing an inflatable decoration, such as giant skeleton hands, to your yard right before or after Labor Day. The choice is entirely up to you. You have plenty of time to decide on the perfect Halloween style that embodies your personality.

Showcasing Your Fandom

For pop culture enthusiasts, we make it incredibly easy to flaunt your fandom. Horror movie fans will delight in our vast assortment of officially licensed merchandise, including Trick ‘r Treat decor, allowing you to bring Sam and his iconic burlap head into your Halloween setup. You can also recreate the ambiance of your favorite movies with our official Hocus Pocus decor, embodying the haunting presence of the Sanderson Sisters, or Beetlejuice decor, featuring the popular Light-Up LED Hanging Marquee Beetlejuice Sign. Let’s not forget The Nightmare Before Christmas decor, adorned with beloved characters such as Jack Skellington, Sally, Oogie Boogie, Zero, and more!
