This Hallowe’en, unleash your inner Goth with our pick of deliciously baroque home accessories, all aimed at making an impact in your house, apartment…or vampire castle.

Halloween home decor ideas

1. Neo Gothic patterned tile, Jacqueline Talbot Designs

These quirky, individual tiles would make an impact surrounding a fireplace, or mixed with plain tiles in a geometric pattern. Available in small, medium and large sizes, prices start at £4.50 from Jacqueline Talbot Designs.

2. Audrey mirror, Sweetpea and Willow

This unusual oval mirror with its distressed, shabby chic finish has a frame embellished with ornate floral carvings and an overall Gothic feel, enhanced by the three candle holders at the base of the mirror. £146, available from Sweetpea and Willow.

3. Sassy Boo black chandelier, The French Bedroom Company

Make a statement with this magnificent and dramatic 10-arm black glass chandelier, perfect for re-inventing yourself as Sleeping Beauty. If you fancy going the whole hog, there’s also a range of co-ordinating furniture. £495, available from The French Bedroom Company.

4. Dark grey wingback chair, MADE.com

Perfect for curling up by the fire and waiting for the sun to set is this wingback armchair in graphite grey. The understated fabric and simple design are offset by luxurious touches like satin silver studs, scrolled arms and buttons. £3359 from MADE.com.

5. Brocante two seat high back monks’ bench, Furnish.co.uk

Add a Gothic twist to a country kitchen with this two seat, high backed monks’ bench with a polished wooden lid. Ideal for adding extra storage, it would also work well in a hallway or boot room and has four hooks on the back for hanging. If black isn’t your thing, it’s also available in a range of other colours. £444 from Furnish.co.uk.

6. Still life skull votive in purple, Kosta Boda

How much fun are these little glass skull, made to house a small tealight candle? Available in different colours, each skull votive holder is handmade individually in Sweden, from thick, opaque glass. Every detail is carefully crafted, and at night, it gives the effect of flickering light coming from within the skull. £28 each from The Scandinavian Shop.

7. Owl canvas, Young & Battaglia for Libra

This unusual owl canvas has a distinctly Gothic edge with its muted colours and trompe d’oeil frame. Designed exclusively by Young & Battaglia for Libra, the edge of the canvas is printed in a flat frame effect, giving the illusion of a real frame from a distance. Other designs are available in the same series. £120 from Alexander & Pearl.

8. Kitley shield mirror, The Chandelier and Mirror Company

An elaborate shield mirror, highly embellished with pierced quatrefoils and sweeping acanthus leaf mouldings, with a soft white gold tones, this will help you create a rich exuberant look for any interior. We can’t help thinking it might be a little hard to dust, though! £125 from The Chandelier and Mirror Company.

9. Hardy stone finish pillar candlestick, Artisanti

This Hardy candlestick has a chunky design with its thick trophy style stem and wide round base, ideal for adding atmosphere to your spooky ruined manor house. Made from resin, it’s lightweight and has a distressed light beige/grey stone finish for a vintage look. Team with other candlesticks in the Hardy range to make more impact. Was £24, now £16, available from Artisanti.

Display photos of friends and family to perfection in this black, ornate chunky picture frame, with its heavy wooden construction. The internal glass size is 10″ x 12″ and it can be hung in either the landscape or portrait position. Just remember, vampires don’t show up in photos! £40 from Ayers and Graces.
