3 Ideas for Superb Halloween Lighting

halloween-lightingHalloween is always an exciting time of year for homeowners who relish the idea of decorating with wild colors and spooky objects. More than any other holiday, Halloween lends itself to the creative and bold ideas that can’t be done throughout the rest of the year. However, if you’re like many other people out there, the thought of perfecting your own Halloween lighting can feel overwhelming, especially with the many other responsibilities piled high on your plate. Hire a professional lighting company to take care of your Halloween decorating needs so that you can trust experts with the installation, maintenance, and tear down of your Halloween festivities.

Color Lighting

Black and orange are the official colors of Halloween, so why not invest in outdoor lighting that sets the mood with the holiday’s colors? An experienced lighting company knows how to capture the mysterious, scary atmosphere of Halloween and put it on display for all to see. In addition to the orange lights strung up in your trees, it will also make a powerful statement to shine floodlights in green, blue, and purple all around your yard. If you have any decorations sitting along your windows or above the door, shine extra lights to make them pop out.

Graveyard Scenes

Does anything scream “Halloween!” more than a graveyard? Strategic lighting tricks can emphasize the decorative graves you place in your yard and even have trick-or-treaters sprinting to your door and back in fear. Flashing lights, especially once placed in an opening and closing grave, can give the effect of the graveyard coming to life with ghosts and ghouls.

Hanging Props

There are so many props available for Halloween use that it’s almost dizzying. Scarecrows, pumpkins, spiders, the Grim Reaper, eyeballs, and more! Ask your lighting company for advice on how to best create a cohesive look with props that will generate the cute or creepy appearance you’re going for. You can even place lit props in the windows, like two large eyes upstairs and black teeth in the bottom bay window, to make your entire house look like it is coming alive.

Halloween can be so fun, so ask your local lighting company to help you take advantage of the holiday spirit.
