It’s never too early to prepare for spooky season

For many people, Augtober has arrived. If you aren’t in the know, that’s the time of year when, even though it’s August and still solidly summer, October-like weather begins to arrive, prompting us all to long for chilly breezes, sweaters, crunchy leaves and spooky season. And since we believe it’s never too early for spooky season, why not start shopping for fan-favorite Halloween decor now (since it’s sure to sell out in the next few months)?

Some of last year’s bestsellers, like horror movie shadow figures , are already back on sale. And this year has some delightful new offerings that we know are going to be everywhere, like a scary garden gnome , spooky monster hand candle holders and (for those who like their Halloween decor to be less scary ) adorable pumpkin pillow covers.

Yes, it’s still summer outside. But buying these things now just means one less item on your to-do list later in the fall. And when spooky season finally arrives, you’ll be ready to embrace it.

These are the Halloween decor items we think will sell out this year
