But it’s one of the easiest designs to transition to a spooky Halloween vibe! You can place a life-size skull on a stack of books, hang a dark-framed piece of Gothic art with weird and creepy insects on your wall, place an ornate Victorian candelabra on your desk, and add dark blankets or throw pillows to your chairs. Maybe create something of a Dracula’s castle vibe—worldly and intelligent yet dark and brooding. I’ve done “must-have” lists for Dark Academia home decor previously but this time I thought I’d have a little fun with it and give it a Halloween twist. So read on for more Dark Academia inspiration!
