It's officially spooky season, so get Hocus Pocus on the telly, wrap your front door in crime scene tape and stock up on snacks for your Trick-Or-Treat visitors at once.
If you want to dive head-first into horror mayhem, there's a plethora of fantastic modern scary movies that will have you hiding behind the sofa and calling your Mum.
We highly recommend Swedish horror The Conference although it'll mean you probably won't look at your colleagues the same way again. Or The Deliverance - but maybe not if your house has a basement...
If your sensibilities lie on the softer side, why not try watching the classic series X-Files from the beginning on Disney +? We must confess that some of the episodes have had us shrieking, but luckily David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson looking cute as heck in '90s fits more than makes up for it.

We have big plans to throw a Beetlejuice themed dinner party to delight our friends and family (although ideally demonic possession for guests should be swerved if possible).
We've been trawling for the best Halloween tablescape inspiration out there... it might be love at first bite...

The chicest Halloween table we ever did see comes courtesy of Maren Baxter (just wait til you see her incredible festive decor ideas). We love the luxe contract of black ribbon and orange pumpkins.

William Sonoma is an excellent place to stock up on fantastic home supplies and we're obsessed with these spooky plates and the ghoulish cocktail garnishes seen here.

If you have a penchant for fantastic cookwear that is also sensationally cute, you might want to look away now and save your pennies. Le Creuset's Pumpkin Collection is seriously lustworthy.

Proving that you don't have to go over the top, and just a few spooky touches (don't forget your wax candles) and some dries flowers (very Miss Havisham) go a long way.
