Get the Look: Spooky Apothecary Halloween Decorations
Leave trick-or-treaters spellbound with this creepy holiday setup
There are two kinds of people in the world: the ones who like to dress up on Halloween and the ones who like to dress up their homes. We at Lonny HQ naturally fall into the latter category. While many choose to go H.A.M. on cheesy pumpkin lights and those obnoxious motion-sensor ghosts, we generally like to keep things classy. So this year, we're transforming our houses into spooky, apothecary-inspired dens, complete with creepy skulls, antiqued glass vessels, and specimens straight out of a science lab. Care to join us? Here's what you'll need.
CLOCHES
Anything trapped behind a glass vessel instantly becomes steeped in mystery.
TAXIDERMY
Bats, ravens, and mice are classic fright-night all-stars.
CANDLEBRAS
Bonus points for melting tapers that drip down to the tabletop.
BUSTS
Because there's nothing scarier than a disembodied head (and this Mozart is particularly intense).
APOTHECARY BOTTLES
For mixing potions and other ghoulish concoctions.
SKULLS
The ultimate sign of danger ahead.
ANATOMICAL SCULPTURES
The more lifelike, the better.
VOTIVES
Mercury glass lends an aged look that's right at home in a moody laboratory.
PHRENOLOGY CHARTS
To further your brainy studies.
ENTOMOLOGICAL DRAWINGS
Because bugs give everyone the heebie-jeebies.
EDISON BULBS
For a little mood lighting.
MAGNIFYING GLASS
To size up the spooky surroundings.
