Ghostly mug
A boo-tiful surprise lies in wait at the bottom of this spooky Halloween coffee mug: a see-through ghost. Made of heat-resistant borosilicate glass, the mug holds 14.5 ounces of any hot liquid. Handwash only. $17, Indigo, indigo.ca.
Cat pizza cutter
Made especially for Halloween pizza, this cute black cat pizza cutter rolls smoothly and is easy to wash up. And if you’re not too much of a fraidy cat, you could probably use it the rest of the year too. $11, Indigo, indigo.ca.
Creepy crawly hand
For a spine-chilling fright at your Halloween party or the “trick” part of trick-or-treat, this battery-operated crawling rubber hand plays spooky music as it skitters across the floor. A scarily fun effect! $25. Rona, rona.ca.
Halloween wreath
This dead-branch wreath is not only eerie, it’s actually quite stylish. The pliable “branches” can be adjusted to customize to your own spooky style, and it works equally well as a creepy front door wreath, over a mantel, or as a sinister centrepiece for Halloween dinner. $20, Rona, rona.ca.
Scary candy bowl
Put Halloween candy in this pumpkin bowl and invite trick-or-treaters to help themselves. When they do, watch out! BOO! Out comes a tiny hand, the pumpkin’s eyes light up and it emits a monstrous roar. What’s Halloween without a few good scares, after all? $37, Rona, rona.ca.
Inflatable pumpkins
These inflatable 11 x 17-inch pumpkins are a delightful way to decorate a Halloween party, dress up your front porch or just hang around the front door while you hand out the treats. Available as a set of three, the durable plastic pumpkins are easy to inflate using a foot pump or your own lung power and include hangers for easy display. $17, Walmart, Walmart.ca.
Spooky string lights
These spooky string lights add just the right ghostly touch to your Halloween decor, indoors or out. Each string features 10 fabric lantern lights featuring a ghostly skeleton face; multiple lights can be strung together for an extended display. $20, Walmart, Walmart.ca.
Inflatable Jack Skellington
Inflatable Halloween decorations are more popular every year, and this inflatable 5-foot Jack Skellington will be a hit with kids all over the neighbourhood. Holding a just-a-teensy-bit-scary purple bat, inflatable Jack lights up and is easy to set up and operate. $40, Walmart, Walmart.ca.
Seven-foot Frankenstein
Home Depot became the unofficial Halloween giant-skeleton store after the introduction of its 12-foot-tall “Skelly” a few years ago. This year, the company has expanded its scary front yard collection with a number of creepy new figures, such as this seven-foot motion-activated Frankenstein, with light-up bolts on the sides of his neck, animated moving eyes and monster roar. $278, Home Depot, homedepot.ca.
Skelly’s dog
What’s a Skelly without his (equally spooky) five-foot dog? The monstrous mutt features LCD light-up eyes with hearts, fireworks, flames or other designs, and the eyes move and blink, just like his skeleton pet parent. $248, Home Depot, homedepot.ca.
