What is Halloween Without a Spooky Old Tree?

Spooky Black Halloween trees have become a tradition in our house each year.

It all began when my son fell in love with the Berenstain Bears book The Spooky Old Tree. Who knew a simple tree with no leaves could be so spooky? It was obvious that we had to have a spooky black Halloween tree each and every Halloween.

Many years later my granddaughter and I can barely wait til October to bring out the Halloween decorations and decorate our spooky Halloween tree.

Spooky black Halloween trees have become pretty popular lately, as a result, it is easier for us who love to decorate with them. Halloween trees add wonderfully spooky focal points to our home while the effort is minimal.

Spooky trees can also be a very cost-effective way to decorate. A fallen branch can easily turn into quite a spooky tree. Simply paint it black and stand it in a spooky container. You really do not have to invest in a lot of decorations for your spooky black Halloween trees as they look awesome with or without them.

Choosing Your Spooky Black Halloween Trees

First of all, you will need to know where you would like to put your spooky tree. This will help determine how big of a tree to look for. Black Halloween trees range in size from a few inches to 8 feet or more.

Would you like an indoor Halloween tree or maybe an outdoor Halloween tree? Would you like a pre-lit tree or no lights on your tree? How big would you like to go? Do you love the look of a big tree but not the cost? Try setting a 3-4 ft tree on a table or a stand for a more dramatic effect.

Finally, pick the style of your black spooky Halloween tree. Spooky tree styles range from gnarly branches, weeping willow, pine trees, and even feathers.
