Halloween is a fun holiday, but it can also be a lot of work, especially if you love to decorate.
Take the pressure off your Halloween prep with these 25 Halloween wall decor ideas.
1. Skull wall art
This is a great idea for a more subtle Halloween wall decoration. This skull painting is a great way to add a little bit of spook to your wall without going overboard.
You can either make your own skull painting or buy one from an artist. Then, all you need to do is frame it and hang it on the wall! You can add other Halloween decorations around the painting to create a festive focal point in your home.
2. Witch wall art
Witches are a classic Halloween character that are always in style. This gothic wall art is perfect for a mantle or gallery wall.
Pro tip: If you have a gallery wall or a collection of items on your mantle, simply swap out a few things for Halloween decor.
3. Bat wall art
One of the most popular Halloween wall decor items is bat wall art. You can find this in so many different forms, like a collage of bats flying in the night, a single bat silhouette, or a bat made of flowers. No matter what your style is, there’s a bat wall art piece for you.
This bat wall art from Etsy is a great example of how you can incorporate this spooky design into your home. The watercolor print is available as a digital download, so you can print it at home or have it printed at a local shop.

If you want to add a Halloween wreath to your decor but don’t have a door to hang it on, try hanging one on the wall. This Halloween wreath is made of faux flowers, leaves, and a banner that says “Boo” in the middle. I love how the colors of the flowers pop against the black wall.

10. Halloween gallery wall
If you can’t decide on just one Halloween wall decor idea, why not hang a gallery wall? You can mix and match all of your favorite Halloween-themed pictures, signs, and wall decals to create a fun and festive gallery wall.
To keep things cohesive, stick to a color palette and choose frames that are the same color and style. You can also add in a few non-Halloween pieces that are the same color as your Halloween decor to create a balanced look.
11. Halloween wall garland
This Halloween wall garland is an easy way to decorate a wall for Halloween. You can hang it on any wall, or even your fireplace mantle.
To make this garland, you’ll need to have a Cricut machine. If you don’t have one, you can still make this project, but you’ll need to use a different method to create the letters.
12. Halloween wall clock
If you’re not into the idea of hanging a wreath on your front door, you can still get in on the festivity with a Halloween-themed wall clock. This one features a haunted house and a full moon, and the numbers are even made out of spooky spider webs.

Create a spooky glow with a set of wall-mounted lanterns. This idea is perfect if you have a covered porch or entryway. Hang a few lanterns on your wall with removable hooks and fill them with flameless candles. You can also add some faux spiderwebs and spiders to the lanterns for a creepy touch.
If you don’t want to hang the lanterns on your wall, you can use a wall-mounted shelf or even a ladder to display them. Add some other Halloween decor, like pumpkins, to fill out the rest of the display.
16. Halloween wall mirror
Mirrors are a great way to make a space look larger and more open, and that includes Halloween decorations. This spooky mirror features a pair of ghostly figures and a “trick or treat” message. You can even find mirrors with changing LED lights for a fun and eerie glow.
Be sure to check the size of the mirror and the space you want to hang it before purchasing. This mirror is a good size for a gallery wall, but you may need something bigger if you’re going to make it a focal point.
