This human-size skeleton from Amazon is the perfect prop! If you want to make it extra spooky, add some strobe lights or a fog machine—and you’re all set!

It may not scare the adults, but it will add to your spooky look. And don’t forget to add a couple of tiny spiders for the complete cobweb effect.
Light Up Pumpkins and Ghosts
Every year it’s been a tradition for our family to get pumpkins and carve them togehter. But when you’re RVing or camping, it’s not always easy to do.
So why not use some light-up pumpkins and ghosts to add a touch of Halloween spirit? They’re relatively inexpensive and sure to make your campsite look festive!
To make it easier, I found this Face Changing and Talking Pumpkin on Amazon! Not only does it light up it also “talks”. The best part is, you don’t need to buy a fresh pumpkin from the pumpkin patch every year.
Bats Flying Around
It’s not Halloween without a few bats flying around the campsite! You can make your own bats using black construction paper and some string or twine, or buy these pre-made bat decorations from Amazon.
Hang a few of them up on trees or near the entrance of your RV to give off a spookier look. Or, if you’re feeling extra creative, try making some big bat-shaped cutouts from foam sheets or felt!
String Up Ghosts
If you’re looking for subtle yet spooky camper Halloween decorations, try stringing up some ghosts! You can easily make them using old white bed sheets or towels. Tie each end of the cloth with a white thread to create a ghostly figure, then hang it up on your RV’s doorway or nearby trees. It’ll give off an eerie vibe for sure!
Here’s a grim reaper-like ghost decoration I found on Amazon. It’s easy to hang and adds a more dramatic feel to your Halloween decorations for RV.
Witch and Haunted House Scene
What better way to spice up your RV Halloween decorations than with a witch and haunted house scene? Make a scene in the front yard or near the entrance of your RV with a few witches, zombies, monsters, etc. For the witch, this hanging witch is a great option.
To complete the look, add these floating witch hats. Hang them above your RV entrance for an added spooky effect! If you’re camping near a tree, this Crashing Witch into Tree decor is a funny addition to your witch and haunted house scene.
Trick-or-Treaters Welcome Sign
If you’re decorating a campsite for Halloween and plan to give out candy to trick-or-treaters, then grab this fun welcome sign. It lights up in the dark, so you can ensure everyone finds their way to your campsite!
They have different designs to choose from, depending on your preference. Plus, it’s a great way to show the kids you’re ready for some trick-or-treating fun—even if you’re away from home.
Halloween Lights and Lanterns
Light up your campsite with some creepy-looking lanterns or Halloween lights. You can find these battery-powered pumpkin lanterns on Amazon, which are perfect for Halloween RV decorations. The orange and black colors give off a spooky vibe while keeping the lights bright.
Add these pumpkin-shaped string lights to light up your campsite for a more festive look. These are also battery-powered and solar-powered, so no need for extra cables!
Scarecrow Decoration
Another classic Halloween decoration that you can make for your camper is a scarecrow. All you need is an old shirt, straw, and some pipe cleaners or googly eyes! If you don’t want to go through all that trouble, I found this 60-inch scarecrow pair that you can set up in chairs near your RV—it’ll look perfect for the season.
