Halloween Wall Art

Halloween Wall Art

Halloween wall art sets the scene for October with haunted houses, jack o lanterns, full moons and moonlit cemeteries. You will find spooky photographs and illustrations here, from a witch silhouetted against the moon to a howling wolf, each one made to order in four finishes.

Haunted Houses, Pumpkins And The Full Moon

Three subjects carry most Halloween art, and they often appear together: the haunted house under a full moon, the moonlit jack o lanterns in a cemetery, the Halloween house at dusk. A single clear silhouette holds up from across a room, so pick the piece with the strongest outline for a hallway or the wall above a staircase.

How Spooky Should It Be?

Decide on the tone before the subject, because the range is wide. The rising zombie hand under moonlight and the howling wolf under a full moon are the eerie end. The glowing pumpkin scarecrow at dusk and the jack o lanterns at teal twilight are gentle enough for a family room where young children play.

Vintage Halloween Art

Searches for vintage Halloween art usually want the look of an old illustrated card: a flat silhouette, a big moon and a simple scene. The witch and moon silhouette, the Halloween cemetery gate illustration and the full moon Halloween illustration come closest to that style. They are new prints made to order, not period originals.

Halloween Wall Art For The Living Room

In a living room, atmosphere beats a crowded party scene. The foggy Halloween pumpkins, the mossy Halloween forest path and the supermoon through storm clouds bring mood without taking over the room. Above an 84 inch sofa, a 60 x 40 inch landscape piece covers about two thirds of the width.

Large Halloween Art For The Entryway

Guests meet your Halloween decor at the front door, so the entryway deserves the boldest piece. Above a 48 inch console, a 36 x 24 inch landscape print covers three quarters of the width. On a bare wall, center it 57 to 60 inches from the floor so it is at eye level as the door opens.

Framed Halloween Wall Art

A Framed Print sets an illustration behind a white mat inside a frame, which gives it the look of a picture book page. A Framed Canvas places a canvas in a frame. A Canvas Print has no outer frame, which makes it the simplest to lift down and store in November, and a Poster Print arrives unframed.

Ordering Ahead Of October 31

Each piece is printed after you order it, and delivery takes 8 to 10 days from the day you order. Allow at least two weeks, so an order placed in mid October should reach you before Halloween.

Keeping It For Next Year

A Halloween piece earns its place over many Octobers. Wrap a canvas in a clean cotton sheet, store it upright rather than stacking weight on its face, and keep it somewhere dry and out of direct sun. The hook it leaves behind is ready for a fall landscape from the fall wall decor collection.

Pieces That Outlast October

A few pieces here carry no pumpkins or ghosts at all. The supermoon through storm clouds and the moonlit mountain hut can stay up well into November. For more moons and suns, see the moon and sun wall art collection, and for misty woods year round, the forest wall art collection.

How Each Piece Is Made

Every Halloween print starts once your order is in. Canvas prints use museum-quality canvas and archival inks, and canvas and framed pieces arrive ready to hang. Shipping is free, and you can return a piece within 30 days of delivery.

Common Questions

What are some cool Halloween art ideas?

Build the wall around one classic subject: a haunted house under a full moon, a row of jack o lanterns or a witch silhouetted against the moon. One large piece above a sofa or a console makes more impact than several small frames. For a family room, choose a friendly scene such as a glowing pumpkin scarecrow rather than a zombie hand.

Where should I hang Halloween wall art?

The entryway, the living room and the staircase wall work best, because they are the walls guests pass on the way in. Hang one larger piece in the entryway, centered 57 to 60 inches from the floor. Above a sofa or a console, leave 6 to 8 inches between the furniture and the bottom of the frame so the frame and the furniture line up.

When should I buy Halloween wall art?

Order at least two weeks before you want it up, since each piece is printed to order and delivery takes 8 to 10 days from the day you order. To enjoy it for the whole of October, order by about September 20. An order placed in the last days of October is likely to arrive after Halloween.

Is Halloween wall art worth buying for one month a year?

Yes, if you store it well and bring it out every October. A canvas wrapped in a clean sheet and stored upright in a dry closet comes out looking the same each year. Some pieces, such as the supermoon through storm clouds, carry no Halloween symbols at all and can stay up through the fall.

Is Halloween art suitable for a child's room?

Choose the gentler pieces for a child's room: a glowing pumpkin scarecrow, jack o lanterns at teal twilight or a Halloween house at dusk. Leave the zombie hand and the howling wolf for older children and adults. A Canvas Print has no outer frame, a simple choice for a bedroom wall.
