If you're a Halloween lover, there's a good chance you're going to buy some kind of themed decor to put you in the mood for the spooky season. However, while living room and outdoor decor are common, you can really spruce things up by decorating your kitchen with Halloween-themed items. The kitchen can be a place to congregate just as much as the living room, particularly when you have an adjoined kitchen and dining room, so having fun kitchen decor will really put your guests in the Halloween spirit and inspire you to whip up some Halloween recipes. From paper towel holders to cookie jars, down to the very kitchen scissors you use, Daily Meal has rounded up some of the best spooky kitchen decor you can use to give your home a festive atmosphere and set the stage for Halloween.

The paper towel holder is often a boring aspect of your kitchen, but that doesn't have to be the case. This cute holder features a bat at the top and a coffin at the bottom, perfect for adding a gothic, spooky vibe to your kitchen this Halloween. The paper towel holder has over 400 ratings with an average of 4.6 stars, so you know you're getting a great product.

You can buy it for $21.99 on Amazon.

If you want kitchen decor that's also functional rather than just taking up counter space, consider these Elizabat kitchen scissors. The handle resembles an adorable little bat, meaning you'll be filled with Halloween spirit even while cutting up vegetables. They aren't just cute, either; reviewers say they're sturdy enough for most kitchen uses, and over 2,500 reviews of the product have averaged to 4.9 stars.

You can buy them for $14.95 on Amazon.

Another functional piece of Halloween decor, this pumpkin-shaped cutting board is stylish and perfect for chopping up ingredients while making fun Halloween recipes. Buyers loved the look of the end grain, and while some found it too pretty to use and hung it up, those who did use it were pleased with its size and say it's perfect for cutting up smaller items like vegetables. The design can also work moving into the Thanksgiving season, as it would match perfectly with harvest decor.

If you want passing the salt to become a fun, festive activity, consider buying these hugging ghost pepper shakers. Not only are they adorable, but the fact that they fit snugly together saves space and makes them easier to find when cooking or seasoning food.
