Turn your garden into a ghostly spectacle this October with the Shabeli Halloween Ghost Hanging Lights – a set of two 50cm glowing ghost figures that float and flicker in the night air. These charming yet creepy hanging decorations are designed to create an eerie Halloween atmosphere, whether you’re decorating for a party, trick-or-treaters, or just getting into the spooky spirit.
Each ghost is made from durable white polyester fabric, with softly glowing LED lights embedded in flexible copper wire. The head is shaped using a lightweight plastic globe, and the arms are supported by foam rods, creating a 3D floating shape that moves gently with the wind. With two lighting modes – flashing and steady glow, you can customise the look depending on your scene.
Battery-powered and completely wire-free, they’re easy to hang on porches, garden fences, balconies, trees, or indoors in hallways and living rooms. Whether you’re hosting a ghost-themed bash or just want to impress your neighbours, these ghostly lights deliver maximum visual impact with minimal effort.

🧡 Why We Like This Product (YPC Team Review)
We hung these on the trees lining our outdoor activity area at YPC and they really stole the show once the sun went down. The lights gave them a glowing, floating effect, especially with a light breeze helping them move. We loved how easy they were to hang – no assembly, no tangles, just pop in batteries and go. The material is surprisingly durable, and the combination of a soft fabric and light-up face was a hit with both adults and kids. Definitely a strong choice for anyone looking to add eye-catching Halloween decor to their outdoor space.
🧠 Tips for Using Them
Hang them from tree branches, porch ceilings or shepherd hooks for best effect
Use rechargeable AA batteries to save over the Halloween season
Switch to flashing mode for parties and steady mode for ambient displays
Combine with cobwebs or spooky sound effects for extra impact
Keep battery boxes tucked under the fabric for a cleaner, ghostly look
