1. Spook Up Your Lights
We LOVE our normal inflatable solar lights but were soooooo excited to find the SPOOKY MOON INFLATABLE SOLAR LANTERN and the SPOOKY SPIDER INFLATABLE SOLAR LANTERN!!!

2. Get Crafty With Pumpkins
The Ultimate Pumpkin Carving Kit With 10 Pop-Out Stencils
Who doesn’t love carving a pumpkin for Halloween? This is one of the most fun Halloween camping ideas because kids and adults can get creative with fun or spooky designs.
One of my totally non-artistic friends carved a pumpkin with a lot of detail in the design and I was amazed at how easy it was when she told me she “cheated” by using a Pumpkin Carving Kit With Pop-Out Stencils!
The pumpkins are so cute … WOW!!! It is an easy and a fun craft project for your Halloween camping trip!
&
A quick caution about carving pumpkins at the campsite … carving tools are sharp and pumpkins can be awkward to handle so take extra precautions … especially when small kids are carving your jack-o’-lantern during your Halloween camping trip!

4. Make Big Scary Statements
Witch’s Brew Door Cover
RVers have the unique ability to add Halloween decorations to RV doors by wrapping them in a Halloween themed cover like this Witch’s Brew Door Cover.
It creates a big festive splash but is still easy and quick to do; it’s also lightweight and requires minimal space during transportation to and from your campsite.
It’s almost as “difficult” to use as pushing a button to roll out an electric RV awning! LOL 🤣

Depending on your location, your Halloween camping trip may be a bit chilly.
Make sure you have plenty of firewood and camping fire starters to keep you warm during your trip.

Straws are another fun way to add to your Halloween decoration theme at the campsite. You can find paper or plastic straws with Halloween colors.
