11. The Ghostly White Victorian Ballroom
For a hauntingly beautiful, airy, and ethereal take on Halloween, opt for a monochromatic, ghostly white theme. This style relies on a palette of pure white, cream, soft ivory, and wispy silver to create a space that feels frozen in time and completely drained of life. Cover all of your furniture in plain white cotton drop cloths, giving the room an abandoned, estate-like appearance. Hang sheer, tattered white cheesecloth or tulle from the ceiling, windows, and doorways, allowing it to catch the slightest breeze and drift like spirits. Decorate with white-painted pumpkins, bleached dried florals like baby’s breath and pampas grass, and silver-painted branches. Use cool-toned white fairy lights and white candles to cast a pale, icy glow, making the entire room look like a beautiful, frozen dream from which you may never wake.
