Think it's too early for spooky season? Think again. Summer might be in full swing, but October will soon be around to haunt us, and there's already some frightfully cool Halloween decor creeping up on us to prepare our homes for the occasion.
Even if you're too busy enjoying iced teas by the pool to start thinking about the scariest date in the calendar, the best home decor stores aren't. The likes of Anthropologie, IKEA, and Burke Decor have all recently released new products to shop so that you can transform your home into the Addams family mansion - and it's as stylish and sophisticated as Morticia herself. Dare to take a glance? Here are nine pieces we're loving to get you in the spooky spirit.

Have you ever seen a cuter ghost than the one printed on this throw? Made from 100% cotton, this fringed blanket from IKEA is perfect for cuddling up under when the nights get colder, darker, and spookier, (but if you ask us, the subtle monochrome palette will see you through the rest of the year, too).

Who said Halloween can't be glamorous? These glass pumpkins are too beautiful to only display for one month of the year.

Set the mood for fall with this fragrant pumpkin clove candle from Capri Blue (who make the best scented candles), available at Anthropologie. It comes in a beautiful speckled glass vessel and has delicious notes of homemade pumpkin pie with a heavy dose of cinnamon thrown in for good measure. It's like packing all the best parts of fall into a jar.
