Festive Halloween decor tends to take up a lot of room in your home — especially if you’re in a smaller space. From sprawling skeletons to large pumpkins, these things are not exactly trinkets you can prop up on a ledge. And if you’re living in a dorm or a small apartment, you can quickly feel like your holiday decorations are more like clutter rather than a fun way to celebrate the season.

I have just the solution: a Halloween lamp! Or any practical item you need to use every day that you can make a little more festive. 

If you’re going the lamp route, HomeGoods is selling these awesome gold and silver bat-etched lamps for $16.99 each, according to a TikTok video from  @4kmediaguy. These are also really cool if you like subtle Halloween decor, because the bat shapes are etched into the column (not actually a full lamp shaped like a bat). For more bold options, there are black, gold, and silver skull-shaped lamps for $19.99. 

As with any lamp, you can customize your buy when you get home. Both of the metallic bases come with black lampshades, but you can easily switch those out and customize them to your desired color at home. You could go for a lighter cream shade if you have it, or whatever color you’ve got at home.

It doesn’t appear that you can find these online, so you’ll have to take a trip to your local HomeGoods to find these spooky lamps! If you prefer to order online or can’t scoop one up, we have three similar options for you that bring the Halloween vibes in a practical find.

Light Up Confetti Glass Ghost
$44

This adorable mini light-up ghost is so perfect for fall. I would display these until the winter holidays hit. I like that the light is a warm white, as it makes it more cozy.

$44 at Anthropologie
Halloween Glass Lamp Candle Holder
$28

This lamp candle holder is radiating major Wednesday vibes. They’re dark and spooky, but minimalistic. It comes in black and black/white, and the design will add some mysterious character to your space. You can also totally use thie with a battery-operated LED flameless candle.

$28 at Anthropologie
Kanstar Hollowed-out Metal Forest Antique Black Table Lamp
$31$28

I love the vintage feel of this forest table lamp. It’s black and 15 inches tall. The coolest part about this lamp is that it reflects the forest shapes onto your wall when you turn it on. This is great for a Halloween party.

$28 at Bed Bath & Beyond
