About

The Halloween publishes research-based buying guides for everything Halloween: costumes, decorations, treats, party supplies, crafts and more.

How we write our guides

Each guide compares published specifications, dimensions, ingredients and safety information, then adds planning calculations β€” such as how many packs you need for a guest list, or whether a decoration fits your space and budget. Where we have not tested a product ourselves, we say so plainly.

Who writes it

Guides are written and maintained by Evelyn Holloway and the editorial team. We update articles when product details or retailer information changes.

How the site is funded

Some links to retailers are affiliate links. If you buy through them we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details.
