Halloween is about creating a vision of everything frightful, spooky, and eerie. You can create this feeling with things like skeletons, spiders, spider webs, jack-o-lanterns, ghosts and goblins, witches and black cats.

Bales of hay are often used to create Halloween displays on front porches. Stacking a few bales of hay on the front porch with pumpkins and other colorful gourds placed at different levels on and around the bales, gives height and depth to your decoration. Prop a scarecrow on the top bale to add more fall festiveness to your display. For more dramatic affect, scatter dead leaves around the display, to add a sense of eeriness to your design.

Fake webbing can be bought at any store that sells Halloween décor, and you can string it up around your porch utilizing the different areas of your home and porch – the windows, pillars, awning, and railings. Fake spiders sitting in the webbing will give it a macabre, eeriness appeal.
