From costumes to decorations and everything in between, a little lighting can help to take your Halloween from freaky to freakin’ fabulous! And if you’re going to be adding light, you might as well do it right (because even witches, goblins, and ghouls can appreciate “going green”). So, with this in mind, here are some ways to get spooky this year with the help of energy-efficient, cost-effective LEDs:
- Homemade Costumes: You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to create a spectacular Halloween costume this year. There are hundreds of ways to enhance your Trick-or-Treating experience with flexible LED strips. Flex can easily be used to enhance any costume, from glowing ghosts and twinkling fairies, to radical robots and more! Use our 9V In-line Battery Connector for a fun, eye-catching display, while adding an element of safety in darkened neighborhoods.

- Pumpkins: Bring the old tradition of pumpkin decorating into the twenty-first century by trading in those old tea-candles for low-voltage LEDs! Whether you decide to paint or carve, LED lighting can add a whole range of exciting elements to your creation. Single color flexible LEDs (white, red, green, & blue) can be combined with our 9V In-line Battery Connector to create blinking, fading, or strobing effects. Try out RGB color-changing flex to allow your pumpkin to fade through every color in the rainbow!

- Indoor Home Décor: A little light can go a long way in creating that extra spooky feel for a haunted house or Halloween party. Line shelves or hallways with Normal Bright Green LEDs to create an eerie glow. Or, for an especially chilling effect, try Super Bright Red! Ultra Bright White LEDs can be mounted around windows to create fun silhouettes, or draped beneath a white sheet to create gleaming ghosts by the front door. Our 12V Cut & Connect Kits come in a variety of colors, and include everything you’ll need to put together a simple DIY LED system!

- Trunk-or-Treating: This fun take on the old tradition has been steadily increasing in popularity over the past few years, especially among schools and churches.
