6. Spooky Fireplace Hearth Mantel

6

The fireplace is the natural heart of the living room, making it the perfect stage for a breathtaking Halloween display. Drape the mantelpiece with heavy layers of black creepy cloth, letting it hang down the sides like tattered curtains. Arrange an assortment of matte black candlesticks of varying heights, interspersed with white pumpkins, realistic skulls, and faux autumn leaves painted in metallic gold and charcoal. Inside the fireplace hearth, if it is unused, pile a cluster of glowing orange jack-o’-lanterns or place a fog machine that gently spills low-lying mist across your living room floor.
