I know you may be thinking that your hallway is too small to decorate, but you would be wrong.
There are so many ways to make your hallway into a spooky, fun, or creepy space that will make all your trick-or-treaters smile and keep them coming back year after year.
If you are in the Halloween spirit, then these ideas are just what you need to get started.
1. Create a Haunted Mansion

As you fill your home with cobwebs and skeletons, don’t forget to decorate your hallway for Halloween.
A few haunted mansion-inspired elements like candelabras, a spooky portrait, and a skull-topped cloche will make a big impact.
2. Add Some Spooky Ghosts

Ghosts are a classic Halloween decoration and for good reason! They’re spooky, fun, and can be used in so many different ways.
You can pick up some ghost décor at the store or make your own.
There are so many DIY ghost decorations that are easy to make and look great. You can make a ghost garland, a ghost wreath, or even a ghost rug!
3. Create a Spooky Spider Web

Using white streamers and black spider cutouts, you can create a haunted hallway that looks like a giant spider web.
This is a simple and inexpensive way to decorate a long hallway. You can also use cotton batting to create the look of spider webs on the walls and ceilings.
4. Add Some Bloody Footprints

These bloody footprints are the perfect way to add a little spooky detail to your hallway. They’re easy to make and you can put them all over your house.
Just use a large piece of paper and cut out the shape of a shoe.
Then, use some red paint and dip the bottom of the shoe in the paint and stamp it on the paper. Let it dry and then you can tape it to the floor.
5. Create a Creepy Carnival

Halloween and carnivals go together like peanut butter and jelly.
This classic Halloween theme is a great way to transform your classroom into a funhouse of horrors,
complete with creepy clowns, fortune tellers, and a sideshow of curiosities.
You can even use your hallway to create a spooky circus tent with red and white streamers, or by hanging a large piece of fabric.
Then, add a few carnival games, like a bean bag toss or a ring toss, to complete your theme.
6. Add Some Scary Eyes

You can make your kids feel like they’re being watched by adding a few pairs of scary eyes to your hallway.
You can buy a set of eyes like the ones shown here, or you can make your own by cutting out some paper ovals and drawing pupils on them.
Use double-sided tape to stick the eyes to your walls, and make sure you place them at different heights to make the effect even more eerie.
7. Add Some Creepy Portraits

Halloween decorations don’t have to be big to make a big impact.
Even a small, narrow hallway can be transformed into a spooky space with just a few simple decorations.
This hallway, for example, is decked out with some fake spider webs, a few pumpkins, and a trio of creepy portraits.
You can find similar portraits at most Halloween stores, or you can make your own by adding some spooky filters to some old family photos.
8. Create a Creepy Lab

Transform your classroom or hallway into a creepy lab with some simple decorations.
Hang a plastic tablecloth from the ceiling to create a lab tent and add some test tubes and beakers to your table for a cool centerpiece.
You can also use plastic tablecloths for a cool backdrop on your bulletin boards or to create a fun photo booth area.
9. Add Some Scary Silhouettes
A few well-placed Halloween silhouette decorations can go a long way. These black cat and witch silhouette cutouts are simple but effective.
You can also make your own Halloween silhouettes with some black paper, a pair of scissors, and a template.
Hang them from the ceiling or stick them to the wall to create a spooky scene.
10. Create a Creepy Crypt
Transform a corner of your hallway into a creepy crypt with a few props and some outdoor Halloween decorations.

You could also add some fog machines or other light-up decorations to make it even spookier!
11. Add Some Spooky Music
Set the mood for your Halloween hallway with some spooky tunes. You can find plenty of Halloween playlists on Spotify, Apple Music, or Amazon Music.
You can even find some sound effects, like creaking doors or howling wolves, to make your hallway feel even more eerie.
Just be sure to keep the volume at a level that’s not too disruptive to your neighbors.
