Enhance the Festivities With A New Halloween Roof Decoration This Year
To completely transform your home into the perfect Halloween wonderland, First Out Roofing has collected a few fun and frightening ideas for you to try out. This year, give your home a complete makeover with a few of our spooky tips.
Haunted House
A classic creepy twist on your normal, everyday neighborhood look, decorating your home to look like a haunted house can be incredibly simple! To achieve this very easy look, simply add some effortless decorations like cobwebs along the roof or fake boards across the windows. Adding spooky and ominous shapes to the windows to make it look like there are ghouls inside, or placing sheet ghosts on the outside of the house will step up the haunted look as well!
Halloween Lights
A fun spooky version of Christmas lights is an extremely fun option if you’re looking for a Halloween roof decoration that is more family-friendly and less scary. All you’ll need for this idea is the same variety of lights and decorations you would normally use around the Christmas season, but look for them in a different color scheme. Whether these are lights to fix directly onto your roof, or colored floodlights, they’re sure to make a splash!
Orange and white lights around your roof will pair well with any jack-o-lanterns and a more autumn centered theme, whereas green and purple lights would be more indicative of monsters or witches. Whatever colors you choose, the lights will be a very easy way for you to bring the fun of Halloween to your home.
Spider Webs
Cobwebs and spider webs are extremely lightweight and easy to add to your home, connecting them to the roof much the same way as you would apply Christmas lights. Adding giant spiders to the roof is a great way to enhance the spookiness of any yard. Fake spider webs are also easy to anchor into the ground all the way from the roof, giving the entire house even more of a look that says, “overrun by spiders.” It’s sure to give all your neighbors the willies!
Crime Scene
Turning your home into a crime scene can be as easy or as complex as you want! All you need to achieve this look is a roll of caution tape and an outline of a body in white chalk or rope outside on the lawn. To kick the decorations up a notch, you could add drips of red to the windows, or even make a fake body bag to put in your yard.
