You don’t have to go all out on decorations that are fit for just one use. There are an abundance of accessories and products sure to exhibit a prevalent gothic theme, regardless of the season. Altering the most prominent areas is difficult when it comes to bathrooms, as this often requires plumbing and electrics. Soft furnishings such as towels and shower curtains or quirky decals icons can become a statement in any bathroom and will not feel out of place after Halloween comes to an end.

Besides, Halloween is the perfect opportunity to let everyone’s imaginations run wild as it pretty much invites you to go slightly nuts. So, here are a few steps you can take to obtain the maximum scream effect by creating your own chilling murder scene…

Most of us agree on one thing, spiders are enough to give quite a lot of people the heebie jebbies. Therefore, adorning your bathrooms entryway with a DIY spider cobweb will set the mood and is almost certain to send chills down the spine. There are a variety of ways that you can create them with a range of materials, which makes this one of our simplest tips. You can also get the kids involved in the decorating process. Be warned, this may require a bit of trial and error but it is worthwhile! Optionally dabble in a more distinctive handcraft by experimenting with bin liners. Yes, you read correctly.

It’s up to you to determine where your bathroom will stand on the scale of goriness. Being a focal addition, fake blood is perfect for setting up a murder scene at the very last minute. There are some options that you will only be able to keep around for a limited amount of time, keeping you on your toes for the big clean up.

Conjure up a mix of blue and red food colouring to achieve murky blood substance realistic enough to be featured in a scene straight out of SAW. Fake blood is perfect for writing hidden messages that will freak out the most challenging people to scare. Our personal favourite idea is to write a message underneath the toilet seat, unexpected even a tad off-putting.

If you’re looking to turn your bathtub into the site of the murder steer clear of the food colouring. A bath bomb that turns your bathtub red is just as effective and won’t leave you with and discolouration. All that’s left is to get a spooky zombie figure to ready to make itself right at home.
