1. Haunted House Porch

If you want to give your house the sense of being haunted, you can hang old white tattered curtains on the porch. You can also scatter a few carved pumpkins around to add a festive touch. As for the lighting, a lot of people use orange and purple lights to accentuate their homes.

The pillars of the porch are also a perfect place to decorate Halloween led string lights or rope lights.

2. Spooky Bushes

Trees and bushes always turn out great when they are decorated with string lights. If you have bushes in your front or backyard, then make use of them by decorating them with Halloween LED net lights.

The lights will give the pushes a twinkling and attractive look. And, for a Halloween touch, consider hanging a few spiders here and there or placing some on top of the bushes. Also, you can place a large, spooky skeleton between the bushes.

So, you decorated your house, but then you take a look and you think to yourself, “Meh!”. Well, try this idea. Place some waterproof, colorful Halloween rope lights along the edges of your house. Opt for colors such as purple, green, and red for a scarier look. As those colors will give your house the Halloween feeling you are looking for and will also ensure that your house stands out in the neighborhood.

4. Wicked Pathway

Another cool idea is to place string lights along the pathway. Place a few pumpkins along the pathway alongside a few flickering lanterns here and there. For Halloween string lights, you can go with a warm color like the one illustrated in the picture above, or you can go with other colors. Either way, adding Halloween string lights will boost the festive vibe of your yard, giving it an even more vibrant and celebratory feel.

5. Phantom Specter

Halloween is simply not Halloween without ghosts. Using ghosts to decorate your house for Halloween is a simple and attractive idea. If the ghosts you have don't come in with lights, then you can decorate them with Halloween string lights. Go for colors like red, purple, or orange. Wrap the lights around the ghosts or stick them inside for an eerie glow. Put the ghosts in strategic places, like hanging them from the roof and the trees, or place them in a way in which they would be peeking out from behind structures.

Conclusion

There is no shortage of creative ideas when it comes to decorating your house with Halloween string lights for Halloween. Decorating your porch, pathway, and bushes with colorful string lights can give your house the Halloween look that you are looking for, especially when you accompany this with a few Halloween decorations such as skeletons, spiders, pumpkins, and ghosts. For this Halloween, I recommend that you check Ollny's store when you shop for string lights, and you certainly won't regret it.
