When it comes to Halloween, there are two types of outdoor decorators: inflatable enthusiasts and those who are decidedly not. Most Domino editors and design lovers tend to fall into the latter group, opting for very demure (yes, we’re still saying it) spooky-season decor. But if you have kids at home or live on a street that’s a trick-or-treating thoroughfare, sometimes a patch of giant blow-up pumpkins or a supersize Jack Skellington is hard to resist. And while it’s not an inflatable, the popularity of Skelly, the viral 12-foot skeleton that has sold out at Home Depot the past few years, proves that hard-core Halloween revelers aren’t afraid of a semipermanent fixture in front of their house.
But what if there was a way to participate in the front-yard festivities without going full-on graveyard for the entire month of October? Turns out, designer Amber Lewis has the answer. In a recent Instagram Story, the founder of Amber Interior Design revealed her simple Halloween decorating secret: a $30 ghost projector light from Amazon. Instead of towering skeletons or oversize spiders perched on faux webs, Lewis is embracing an understated but effective way to give her home a spooky glow, calling the find a “big bang for your buck.”
Rotating Ghost Projector

The projector casts a rotating display of creepy-cute ghosts across your home’s exterior, adding a moody ambience without the need for any over-the-top decor. Its simplicity and budget-friendliness make it an easy win for anyone looking to elevate their Halloween game without breaking the bank—or sacrificing their curb appeal.
We took a peek at the projector, which is weather-resistant for outdoor use but works just as well indoors. It’s perfect for casting spooky shadows on a porch or living room ceiling, bringing the Halloween spirit to life in a subtle way. And at just $30, it’s more than a little tempting to click “add to cart.”
So whether you’re a minimalist who wants to get in on the fun when the sun goes down or a parent looking to satisfy your kids’ ghoulish cravings, this Amazon find strikes the perfect balance. In true Amber Lewis fashion, the gadget proves that even the smallest details can really make a statement.
