Halloween is approaching and we all know how overwhelming it can be to come up with new and inspiring decoration ideas to put you in that holiday spirit with just the right amount of scare sprinkled with cuteness or creepiness (take your pick). The staircase offers an often-ignored decorating space that can elevate your Halloween decorations.

As you have often noticed haunted houses in movies or TV shows almost always have a creepy staircase. One fresh example – the Creel House in Vecna-infested Upside-Down has vine-laden stairs which become a death trap in Stranger Things. So you get the idea.

You have plenty of options to set the eerie mood of the season, which can be used for both indoor steps and outdoor stairs. From chic and sophisticated décor elements to ghoulish and frightful layouts, here are some brilliant Halloween staircase decoration ideas to inspire you.

Indoor Staircase Halloween Decoration Ideas

Bats, spiderwebs, and pumpkins – what more could you want to deck up your staircase in a Halloween vibe?

Carving pumpkins can be a difficult task. If you don’t want the mess of creating Jack-o’-lanterns, paint some lanterns on the gourds and put them on the stairs.
