Shop for custom signs, vintage-style decorations, and artisanal items that stand out. You can also grab shirts, mugs, tumblers, and more themed to your favorite Halloween movies that are super cute! Those are usually what I order from Etsy shops.
   • Amazon: For a vast selection and quick shipping, Amazon has an extensive range of Halloween decor, from life-sized skeletons to animated props. Read reviews and compare prices to find the best deals, and always remember the Amazon return policy! If you don’t love something, send it back and find something that fits perfectly in your home!
5. Thrift Stores and Garage Sales:
   • Don’t underestimate the charm of vintage Halloween decor. Scour thrift stores, flea markets, and garage sales for unique, retro items that can add character to your spooky setup. My favorite places to go area small, local thrift stores that run on donations. I have found high-end serving ware and tons of retro figurines in these shops!

   • During the Halloween season, Spirit Halloween stores pop up in many locations. These stores offer a plethora of Halloween decorations, animatronics, and costumes, making them a one-stop-shop for all things spooky.
