When should you put up Halloween decorations? Some Kalamazoo residents started in September, but one decorating guide suggests waiting until October 1. How early is too early to decorate for Halloween?
It seems like stores are stocking holiday decorations earlier every year. I’m afraid that is leading to people putting up Halloween decorations in their front yards earlier and earlier.
I saw skeletons out front of homes on Nicols Rd and Ravine Rd in Kalamazoo in mid-September. They can do what they want; I’m not their real dad. However, it does seem super early for that, right?

Balsam Hill published an article with Halloween decorating tips. They suggest sticking with the month of October for decorating your property for the Spooky Holiday.
“There are no hard rules, but October 1st is the most widely accepted date to put up Halloween decorations. Starting then allows you to enjoy the spooky season for the full month without the displays feeling out of place or causing decoration fatigue.”
