Code Orange, repeat, Code Orange. This TikTok hashtag has us all awake to the fact that Halloween and fall decorations are starting to hit stores. In fact, some TikTok users have reported seeing pumpkins and ghosts in the first week of July. While we shouldn’t be wishing for the last of summer’s sunshine, it’s never too early to start looking forward to the next season. And since the hashtag has been circulating on the social media app, we’ve had time to figure out what decorations are being talked about the most, or in other words, #viraled.
With all the buzz surrounding these popular items, we warn you that if you don’t start shopping now, you could miss out on some of the hottest indoor and outdoor decorations this spooky season. Read on to find out which Halloween decorations are trending and exactly where to buy them.

Cushions are a functional decorative choice that can also make a style statement, and this season they’re in full force. From pumpkins to ghost families to Snoopy in a witch’s hat, there’s something for everyone. The popular oversized skeleton sofa cushion is virtually impossible to find, except for Mr. Bones at Pottery Barn.
Ghosts of all kinds are taking over homes this fall, and statues of all sizes are leading the trend. Mugs, cans, glowing draped ghosts, and of course pillows are all must-haves. Use them to create a spooky yet lively theme inside and outside your home.
Finally, some of last year’s trends are back for 2024. Giant grass ghouls, poseable skeleton decorations, and animatronics are back and bigger than ever. Also back this year (and now spotted in additional pastel colors) is the viral pink ghost blanket.
Where to Shop Halloween Decorations to Follow TikTok Trends
Many popular retailers are known to release new Halloween collections every year to satisfy Halloween enthusiasts around the world. While TikTokers all seem to flock to their local TJ Maxx, Marshalls, and HomeGoods stores to satisfy their Halloween decoration addiction, these stores have little to no online presence and can be hit or miss when it comes to shopping for specific items. So, take your ghost hunting to a few other places where you might have better luck finding fun yet scary items to grab to completely kill off the current TikTok trend.
