Your window display is a great place to add some interactivity to bring customers inside your store, Halloween is the perfect time for some revolting riddles, adding some mystery to your display, arrange some small prizes for customers with the right answers.
Remember Halloween is a time for children and whilst most kids love a gentle scare, going full-on Nightmare on Elm Street is likely to result in a few tears and lost customers. If children are your main target audience, stick with Jack-o’-Lanterns, sweets, goodies and spells and hold back on the screams, poltergeists and serial killers.
