Halloween is tomorrow, so for our last post of the week, I couldn\u2019t resist digging through past GPODs for a little spooky-season garden inspiration. Over the years, contributors have shown us that Halloween decor doesn\u2019t have to stop at the front door. A foggy morning can turn a familiar garden wonderfully eerie, homegrown pumpkins can become an entire cast of characters, and flowers and foliage from the garden can transform simple gourds into works of art. Today we\u2019re revisiting three very different Halloween displays that all have their own charm and appeal.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll start in Hebron, Kentucky, with Keri Shinault\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finegardening.com\/article\/a-perfectly-spooky-garden\">perfectly spooky garden<\/a>. Keri and her husband, Brandon, began hosting an annual Halloween masquerade after their October 2005 wedding, eventually decorating their home and garden with creepy critters, ghouls, headstones, and plenty of other spooky surprises.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><em>A beautiful sitting area surrounded by lush plants becomes instantly more mysterious when fog blurs the garden beyond.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes Mother Nature provides the best Halloween special effects.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-235372\" src=\"https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29180005\/4-6.jpg\" alt=\"skeleton Halloween decoration, garden seating, spooky garden, Halloween display, garden decor\" width=\"1300\" height=\"975\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29180005\/4-6.jpg 1300w, https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29180005\/4-6-700x525.jpg 700w, https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29180005\/4-6-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29180005\/4-6-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1300px) 100vw, 1300px\"\/><\/p>\n<p><em>Sit a while!

Even commenters on the original GPOD singled this little duo out as a favorite.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll end with something completely different from Cherry Ong in Richmond, British Columbia. For her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finegardening.com\/article\/cherrys-dazzling-pumpkin-display-in-a-diy-theater\">dazzling pumpkin display<\/a>, Cherry repurposed the pallet-wood auricula theaters she and her husband had built for spring into a stage for decorated pumpkins and squash.<\/p>\n<p>Auricula theaters traditionally protect auriculas (<em>Primula auricula<\/em>, Zones 3\u20138) from harsh rain and wind, but Cherry discovered they make a pretty spectacular fall display too.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-235382\" src=\"https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29183056\/GPOD-Ong-7-fall-pumpkin-display.jpg\" alt=\"DIY auricula theater, pallet wood display, fall pumpkins, gourds, garden display, autumn decor\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29183056\/GPOD-Ong-7-fall-pumpkin-display.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29183056\/GPOD-Ong-7-fall-pumpkin-display-700x910.jpg 700w, https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29183056\/GPOD-Ong-7-fall-pumpkin-display-768x998.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Cherry and her husband built these pallet-wood auricula theaters a couple of years earlier\u2014he constructed and hung the boxes, while Cherry designed and stained them.

Some pumpkins were decorated with seasonal flowers and foliage from the garden, turning the whole theater into one big botanical arrangement.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-235384\" src=\"https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29183152\/GPOD-Ong-13-Chinese-tea-rosebuds-on-pumpkins.jpg\" alt=\"white pumpkin, Chinese tea rosebuds, botanical pumpkin decoration, dried flowers, fall garden display\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29183152\/GPOD-Ong-13-Chinese-tea-rosebuds-on-pumpkins.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29183152\/GPOD-Ong-13-Chinese-tea-rosebuds-on-pumpkins-700x910.jpg 700w, https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/10\/29183152\/GPOD-Ong-13-Chinese-tea-rosebuds-on-pumpkins-768x998.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>A small white pumpkin topped with clusters of Chinese tea rosebuds shows just how detailed Cherry gets with these creations. Elsewhere in the display, she also incorporated dried dahlias and other flowers and foliage from the garden.<\/p>\n<p>I love how each of these gardeners found a unique way to bring Halloween into their outdoor spaces. That might be my favorite thing about Halloween in the garden: there really aren\u2019t many rules. You can go creepy, silly, beautiful, botanical\u2014or somehow all four at once. I hope everyone has a happy Halloween tomorrow!
