Halloween is about more than just scary decorations, costumes and mountains of sweet treats. While the spooky celebration is only just beginning to take off in Australia, what cannot be denied is that it is fantastic at bringing communities together to indulge in an evening of trick-or-treating and scary storytelling.

If you’ve already stocked up on individually wrapped chocolates and lollies in preparation for the festivities, make sure your neighbours know by decorating the exterior of your home accordingly. Or, for an older crowd, consider hosting a Halloween themed dinner party by dressing up your dining room with a pumpkin pie-scented candle and jack-o-lantern fairy lights.

To get you started, we’ve rounded up the best places to shop for Halloween decorations in Australia.
