You'll Want to Burn These Festive Halloween Candles All Autumn Long

Even if you're not planning to go all in on Halloween this year with a unique costume and a yard full of DIY decorations, there's an easy (and cheap!) way to up your space's scary factor: Halloween candles.

Whether your goal is to dress your home for the holiday with elegant pillars, set the tone for a virtual murder mystery party, or you simply love the smell of pumpkin spice wafting through the air, you can find Halloween candles at all of your favorite retailers, from Yankee Candle and Bath & Body Works to Amazon and Etsy. There's no shortage of autumnal scents. Choose from fall classics—like the aforementioned pumpkin or apple pie—or go with something a little more unexpected and mysterious—like amber or patchouli.

These candles aren't just festive in scent, either. We've got creepy floating eyeballs and skeleton-shaped candles that'll burn throughout the season. Though if you'd rather stick to a more minimalist option that'll suit your mantle long after October 31, opt for something a little less spooky.

No matter where your search leads you, let it start with some of the best Halloween candles and candle holders.
