4. Minimalist and classy
Another unexpected twist for the spooky season is the minimalist Halloween table decor trend, and for 2024, the more understated the better.

“Sleek designs that scream “comfortable luxury” are currently very popular. “In my opinion, muted colors, fine furniture and small luxurious details are becoming increasingly popular and will also be reflected in seasonal designs, for example for Halloween.”
Neutral pumpkin tones like cream, sage green, or earthy yellow work with this look, says Tommy, incorporating vintage elements to create authenticity. “Adding vintage elements can give your room an old-fashioned feel.” Try dark lace, antique furniture or vintage portraits to bring some darkness into your home without overwhelming the space,” he advises.
The final upswing? Provide dim lighting and create an atmospheric atmosphere with candlesticks. “You can add some spookiness with darker candle holders, especially if you find vintage or drippy candle holders,” says Tommy.

To add depth and intrigue, combine this with Zamioculcas Black Raven, known for its dark, glossy leaves. “The black raven is a real statement piece and looks incredibly dramatic when placed in a dark corner with a ceiling spotlight casting spooky shadows,” says Claire.
One of the top blooms for Halloween will be Aeschynanthus Rasta, which Claire says is “perfect for making some haunting twists with its curly foliage.” For a spooky spooky effect, add cucurbita to empty spaces, she says, “they create a spooky atmosphere and fit effortlessly into the Halloween theme.”
