20 Spooktacular Halloween-Themed Baby Shower Ideas

Baby showers are a whole lot easier to plan when there is a theme attached. When it comes to the cakes, decorations, and setup of the shower, a theme should be something that reflects the mom-to-be's personality. And for any pregnant mama who has a certain love for all things witchy, eerie, and haunting, then why not consider having a Halloween-themed baby shower? Not only can everyone dress up in costumes, but it can also result in pretty awesome decorations and desserts. It is a fun theme to consider for moms who are expecting a baby around the creepiest time of year. 

People throw Halloween parties all the time, so there are plenty of ideas out there. Making those ideas fit for a baby shower creates a cool opportunity to show some personality and individuality. A mom could use her love of The Nightmare Before Christmas, Beetlejuice, or Hocus Pocus to bring the shower together. Or it can be more general and have a focus on pumpkins, ghosts, or skeletons. Colors can make a big impact, too. Many people pull Halloween baby showers together by using a palette of black, white, purple, orange, and green. Having stripes in the decor or desserts is also a classic idea. Other things that can be used include candy corn, black roses, and spiderwebs. Halloween is filled with exciting ideas for a baby shower! Here are 20 creepy and cute baby shower ideas for the most spooktacular Halloween-themed baby shower ever!
