Easy Haunted House Decorations
If you’ve glanced at the seasonal aisle at Target, you know that easy-to-install indoor Halloween decorations are available in abundance. You can turn your home into a scare zone, whether it’s on wheels or not.
Some of the stuff they have for RV Halloween decorations is pretty darn cute… in a creepy way, of course. For example, these giant spiders might get your skin crawling, and these hanging skeleton ghosts are sure to give campers a fright. And then there’s this super-scary cocoon corpse decoration if you’re feeling really committed to frightening the neighbors.
Of course, all of these RV Halloween decorations can quickly add up and drain your camping budget. But that doesn’t mean you have to give up on turning your RV into the creepiest spot in the campground. From classic creepy cobweb cloth to removable wall and window decals, turning your RV into the haunted house of your dreams — or nightmares — doesn’t have to be difficult or expensive.
Cheap Haunted House RV Decorations
Instead of going all out with lots of intricate haunted house party decorations, you can create a spooky space with just a few inexpensive and reusable Halloween props. After all, if you’re looking to make an immersive “haunted” experience, it’s really not about any one individual decoration as much as it is the design of the whole area.
From hay bales to decorative corn, many of the least expensive outdoor Halloween decorations are also the most effective.
And we love these DIY skeletons spotted by Karen in the Woods — and it looks like all they take to make are some PVC pipes and bleach canisters!
Plus, creating inexpensive DIY haunted house decorations is just plain fun. You could purchase these creepy keep-out signs… or you could gather up some sharpies and cardboard and make your own.
Best Halloween Decorating Ideas
Whether it’s for a haunted house or a Halloween party, some of the best spooky decorating ideas are also the most fun.
For instance, you just can’t go wrong with carving a Jack-o’-lantern. Not only is it fun to do, but you also get all those yummy pumpkin seeds to roast up and snack on!
If you don’t consider yourself a talented designer, don’t worry: You can always fall back on the easy and affordable pumpkin carving kits. They include designs at a variety of levels as well as all the knives and tools you need to get the job done.
But the best part of pumpkin carving is that it’s so open-ended. Your gourd can be anything you can imagine!

Halloween Decor on a Budget
As you can see, making an incredible Halloween display in your rig isn’t just possible — it’s easy and fun to do. And it doesn’t have to be expensive. In fact, you can make some great DIY Halloween decorations.
For instance, you and the kids could grab some construction paper and scissors and make DIY paper bats, perfect to hang either inside your RV or under your rig’s awning.
Or maybe a bloody handprint is more your style? It’s a lot simpler than it seems. All you need is Elmer’s glue, plastic food wrap, and food coloring.
One of the easiest and most classic Halloween decorations out there is a ghostly apparition… which takes nothing more than a plain old white sheet. You can pin black felt circles on for eyes rather than marking it with sharpies.
Happy haunting!
