Halloween party supplies for the whole night, whether you're throwing a cosy kids party or turning the house into a full haunt. Fill the rooms with Halloween decorations, dress the table with Halloween tableware, and kit everyone out with Halloween costumes and props. For outside, outdoor Halloween decorations and Halloween lights set the scene from the front path.
Building the scares by age? Keep little ones to friendly pumpkins and Halloween balloons, and save the gory fake blood and makeup for older trick-or-treaters, with a bowl of sweets by the door for callers. Chasing a bargain? Our Halloween sale runs right through the season. Start with the front door and the main room, the two spots every guest sees, then work outwards from there.
Planning the whole night? Our Halloween party and decorating guide walks you through decorations, costumes and party food.
Show moreA good Halloween party works in layers, and you don't need to do the whole house at once. Here's how we'd plan it, after more than 3 million orders.
Build it room by room. Start with the two spaces every guest sees: the front door and the main room. Dress the door with outdoor decorations and a couple of lights, then work inside with hanging decorations, a scene setter on the main wall and a dressed table. One big prop by the entrance does more than a dozen small bits spread thin.
Match the scares to the ages. For little ones, keep it friendly: smiling pumpkins, balloons, toys and a not-too-scary costume. For older kids and grown-ups you can turn it up, with cobwebs, gravestones, fake blood and the odd jump-scare in a dark hallway. If the ages are mixed, keep the gory stuff to one room so younger guests can steer clear.
When to buy. The best designs sell through from late September, so order the pieces you know you want early and leave the fillers, sweets and last-minute costumes for closer to the day. Keep an eye on the Halloween sale for last year's stock at a lower price.
Left it late? Order by 4pm and next-day delivery means you can still dress the house the day before.
A: It covers everything for a spooky night in one place, from decorations, props and hanging skeletons to costumes, trick or treat buckets, balloons and party toys. You can decorate the house, dress the family and sort the sweets run from the same order.
A: Start with your decorations and props to set the scene, then add tableware, balloons and costumes for the people coming. If you are on a budget, check the Halloween Sale section first.
A: Yes. There are baby costumes, kids toys and dressing up, plus men's and women's costumes for adults. Trick or treat buckets, bags and stress toys suit younger children.
A: Sizes vary by item and are listed in each product name and description. As a guide, we have small honeycomb bats and skull props around 16cm, a lifesize hanging skeleton at 150cm, and a jumbo outdoor spider at 255cm.
A: There are foil helium balloons such as the Jack Skellington Orbz at 38cm, and latex balloons sold in packs, like the ghost latex balloons in packs of 6. Foil and latex work differently, so check whether an item is filled with helium or air.
A: Both. We have a dedicated Outdoor Halloween Decorations section for garden and doorway displays, plus hanging decorations, table decor and signs made for indoors. Product descriptions say which use an item is built for.
A: Yes. The Halloween Bags & Buckets section has items like the cauldron trick or treat bucket at 18cm and treat tote bags around 34cm, ready for the doorstep round.
A: People use the range for house parties, garden displays, school and office Halloween events, and window or doorway scenes. Props, tapes and hanging skeletons build the atmosphere, while tableware and balloons cover the party side.
A: A few high impact pieces go a long way. Fright tapes across a doorway, a couple of honeycomb bats and one larger prop like a hanging skeleton will fill a room without buying dozens of items.
A: Pick soft, playful items such as pumpkin stress toys, the glow in the dark skeleton block kit and cute ghost latex balloons, then add trick or treat buckets so every child goes home with something.
A: Most balloons arrive flat and you inflate them yourself. Latex balloons and foil balloons need helium to float, so order a helium canister if you want them to rise, or fill with air for hanging displays.
A: Fix larger outdoor pieces to a solid point and keep lightweight items sheltered where you can. Check ties and fixings after windy weather and bring delicate decorations indoors if a storm is due.
A: Hanging skeletons and honeycomb decorations need a fixing point such as a hook, string or tape. Match the fixing to the weight of the item and the surface so it holds through the night.
A: Costumes are grouped by baby, kids and adult, and each listing gives its age or size. Check the size on the product page before ordering, as fancy dress sizing can differ from everyday clothing.
A: Novelty lenses such as the cat eye contacts sit directly on the eye, so follow the fitting, cleaning and wear time guidance that comes with them. Do not share lenses and remove them if your eyes feel sore.
A: Small items like erasers, coins and pocket money toys can be a choking hazard for very young children. Keep them away from under 3s and supervise little ones during trick or treat and party games.
A: Helium is for filling balloons only and is never for breathing in. Adults should handle the canister, and keep balloons and fittings away from small children.
A: Latex balloons are made from a natural material, so they are a kinder choice than plastic. Always bin used balloons responsibly and never release them outdoors.
A: Store sturdy props and reusable decorations to use again next year, which cuts waste the most. Check the packaging on paper and card items for recycling guidance before you throw them out.
A: You will need helium to float foil and latex balloons. Our Helium Gas section has canisters that also come bundled with balloons and ribbon if you want everything together.
A: Fill your buckets and bags with treats from the Sweets range, and pick up extra Party Bags if you are handing out fillers to a group of children.
A: Look at Halloween Table Decor & Tableware for themed plates, cups and napkins, then add hats and headwear so guests can join in the dressing up.
