We’ve found the best Halloween buys to make your house truly spooktacular.
From epic centrepieces and hanging decorations to Halloween-themed serving dishes and drinking cups, we’ve got you covered.
We’ve also included some easy, pre-prepared snack ideas but if you fancy making something spooky from scratch, choose from our selection of Halloween recipes.
Bat shaped Halloween doughnut wall
This gothic bat-shaped doughnut wall is the perfect Halloween centrepiece. Just prop it up on a table and hang ghoulishly designed ring doughnuts from its pegs.
Available from Ginger Ray (£9.99)
Pumpkin glass with straw
Stay on theme by serving drinks (try our blood beetroot cocktails) in these pumpkin-shaped glasses. Alternatively, remove the lids and straws and pop a candle inside to add a subtle, spooky orange glow to the room.
Available in-store from Flying Tiger (£2)
Black double-ended edible food pen
Whether you're making googly eyes for our spider biscuits, ghoulish Halloween cupcakes or Halloween apple & strawberry pie, or perhaps decorating bakes with spiders and webs, edible food pens like this one make it a doddle.
Available from:
Lakeland (£2.49)
Hobbycraft (£3)
Ghost ceramic snack jar
Serve scary snacks in this boo-tiful, ghost-shaped snack jar. Fill it with our creepy crackers, chocolate-covered Halloween pretzels, healthy Halloween nachos or Day of the Dead biscuits. Or you could try something a little creepier... (see below)
Available in-store from Flying Tiger (£4)
Eat Grub peri peri roasted crickets
Is there anything creepier than creepy crawlies? Dare to eat these crunchy critters (fear not, the peri peri flavouring really does change the game here!)
Available from:
Sous Chef (£1.99)
Pumpkin bowl
This gorgeous, handmade earthernware bowl is designed to look just like a pumpkin, both inside and out - it was even moulded from a real pumpkin! An apt serving vessel for a hearty pumpkin soup or a batch of our pumpkin hummus.
Squid ink linguine
Stuck for ideas for a Halloween-themed dinner party dish? How about 'witch's hair' (a.k.a squid ink pasta)? Toss this spook-ghetti with fried garlic, olive oil, chilli and seasoning for something simple, or use it in one of our spaghetti recipes.
Available from Sous Chef (£4.50)
