Spooktacular Halloween Table Decor Ideas

Sharing is caring!

If you love adding a touch of spooky style to your home, creating a show-stopping Halloween table is the perfect place to start. The right Halloween table decor can transform any dinner into a festive celebration. Whether you’re hosting a haunted dinner party or a cozy family gathering, let me help you set a table that’s equal parts chic, spooky, and unforgettable.

For this year’s Halloween table, I decided to hit up the dollar store. All the stuff I have here I purchased there, except for the candle and fabrics.

By shopping at the dollar store, you keep your costs down, which is a-okay in my book!

Halloween Table Decor

I always like to go in on my dining table creations with the centerpiece. First, I like to have a little height in the middle so for this tablescape I used my cake stand with some gauzy material that when stretched looks like spider webs.

Then I took a white candle and a red candle and lit the red one. I let red wax drip all over the top and spill down the edges of the white candle to make it look like blood.

Next to the candle I added some fake eyeballs and two black snakes that look like they are slithering up the edges.

I found some spooky votive holders with skulls, skeletons, and all sorts of spooky stuff and put a fake candle in them to keep things safe.

Next to the cake stand centerpiece on the right side is a skull and black mouse, which really gives me the heebie jeebies!

On the other side of the cake stand, I have a small coffin that has a bat on it. Could it be Drakulas?! Then there is this hairy spider that looks like it’s crawling up it. YUCK! And you will find two more votive candles with spooky pictures on them.

On the back side of the cake stand, I have this skeleton hand that looks like it’s climbing up.

I added a few things to my buffet as well. First, I have this faux gravestone with a glow in the dark skeleton. There are two ghosts flanking the gravestone, as well as some more fake eyeballs.

I have two black candlesticks with orange candles on either side of all of this with two orange jack-o-lanterns on the ends.
