It can be tough to find Halloween decorations that aren’t cheesy or cheap looking (sorry, but someone had to say it). Though we’re all about having fun and getting into the holiday spirit, plastic skeletons, inflatable lawn witches, and messy string spider webs just aren’t our style.

We're more about beautifully crafted crystal, an autumnal color palette, and candles that we can use at the most fabulous costume party of the year (or in our everyday lives). We work hard to make our homes look beautiful 365 days a year, and we believe that holiday decorating shouldn’t be any different.

That’s why we’ve rounded up these chic Halloween decorations that will make your home look frightfully festive this holiday season. Whether you’re going for creepy or cute Halloween decor (or something in-between), we have the best options for every style and price range. Here, the best luxury Halloween decorations that are available right now.


Burgundy Leaf Placemat

Halloween is all about decorating and dressing up, so why not dress up your table with a bit of a Halloween spirit? We love these leaf placemats in a rich shade of burgundy to make your table something worth talking about. Plus, you can use them for Thanksgiving, too!
