Halloween is a holiday that is celebrated with kids and adults alike.

From decorating your home with the best spooky Halloween decor to planning your enchanted Halloween party. Decorate your home and party with personalized Halloween home decor statement pieces that will be the highlight of your Halloween festivities.
The Happy Halloween holiday got its start with its ancient origins as the Celtic festival Samhain, where people would disguise themselves in costumes and light bonfires in an attempt to ward off the spirits of the dead who were believed to rise on November 1st. Today, Halloween is celebrated in the United States and other countries on October 31st, and it’s treated as a fun time of playing dress-up in Halloween costumes, eating lots of candy, and watching classic horror films. You likely have a lot of planning to do for trick-or-treaters and your own Halloween party this year, and Shutterfly is here to help with invitations, signs, and plenty of other Halloween decorations for your living space.

With Shutterfly, it’s easy to customize your own family Halloween card with your best photos of everyone in costume or autumn clothes and your choice of personal message on our finest cardstock. If you really want a costume you’re proud of to take center stage, take a look at our landscape photos with spooky designs, like spiderwebs in the corners. Whether your little one is dressing up as a scarecrow or you’re about to leave the house in your best Bill Nye costume, these photos are perfect for Halloween greetings.
Halloween Invitations
If you’re throwing a big Halloween party this year, you’ll need to make sure that all the ghouls and witches get their invitations, and we make it as fun and easy as possible to say Happy Halloween at Shutterfly.

Keep Things Friendly for the Kids
It’s fun to be scared in a safe environment during the spooky season, but it’s a good idea to make sure all the kids have a happy Halloween by making sure the festivities and decorations don’t get too scary. That’s why we have so many friendly designs at Shutterfly, like kids’ Halloween cards and Halloween invitations that let the recipients know that you’re throwing a kids’ party and to keep the costume choices lighthearted. You can even use the customizable text to make friendly costume suggestions, such as spooky characters or classic monster masks appropriate for all ages.
Get Scary With the Adults
If you need adult Halloween party ideas, saying Happy Halloween with a truly spooky haunted house is a great idea. Whether you’re turning your own house into a haunted location straight from a horror film, or you’re looking to have a good time at a professional haunted house, keep everyone on the same page with our haunted house theme invitations, or send everyone one of our creepy Halloween address labels to share the location of the haunted house event. Remember, one of the best things about customization is that you can get as scary as you want with your photos, so feel free to get creative for the adult parties.
