The best Halloween trees to shop now

The trendiest way to decorate for spooky season, we've hand-picked the smartest – and the scariest!

By

While it’s hard to beat a display of beautifully carved pumpkins on the front doorstep, you may be looking for new and more exciting ways to bring some of those scary vibes into your home this year. The solution? A fabulous – but frightful – Halloween tree!

Definitely not something just for Christmas, a tree makes an excellent way to decorate your space as October 31st comes ever nearer. In fact, there’s no better time than now to invest in this new trend so you can enjoy the Halloween tree (and any other haunting decorations you may put on display) throughout the whole of spooky season.

To help make shopping for one more of a treat (and much less of a trick), we’ve hand-picked from the vast selection available now. From compact tabletop designs featuring dangling pumpkin decorations to pre-lit designs that will make de-tangling fairy lights a thing of the past, the choices are endless.

You could opt for keeping your Halloween look smart and sophisticated with a relatively subtle option or go completely OTT with a bold statement creation (perhaps even including the Halloween gonk tree that’s made the cut on our list!). Either way, you’ll want a design that can stand front-and-centre in your sitting room or give guests (and the inevitable trick-or-treaters) something of a ghoulish welcome in your hallway.

Either way, make this the year you invest in a design that will allow you to make decorating your Halloween tree a new annual tradition. Take your pick from the smart (but scary) options below...
