To start off, the best element to use in your design is a Jack-O-Lantern. Who doesn’t know what these scary carved out pumpkins with a fiery light coming out of their eyes and mouth are? And the best part is you can go all out! You can create a Jack-O-Lantern with whatever face you want or you can combine it with another niche. An example could be creating a Jack-O-Lantern in the form of a popular videogame character, this was you can target two niches at once, just be creative!
Video Games
As mentioned before, Halloween is the perfect holiday to combine niches. One niche that goes well with Halloween is video games.

Who doesn’t love candy on Halloween...? Exactly, everyone does! Trick or treating is the most popular activity on Halloween night and therefore it is a great topic for your campaign. Design wise, it is best if you use creative texts like “TRICK OR TREAT!” in a scary font along with a funny picture, or just focus on the candy! Make sure to use the most popular candy among both kids and adults during Halloween. The best to be featured in a design are: Chocolate bars, candy-coated chocolate pieces, caramels, and gum. The candy you want to avoid using in your campaign is liquorice as it is not as popular.

Movies

Video games are not the only thing with a lot of great elements that go well with Halloween, movies do as well. The creepier the better. Currently, Suicide Squad is the number one movie that features a lot of elements that are great for Halloween 2016. Just think of the Joker or Harley Quinn. Other great movies that you can use as inspiration are the returning Star Wars or The Avengersm, but not only the modern movies are in great favor of this holiday, the classics keep coming back as well. Think of movies like Friday the 13th, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Scream or A Nightmare on Elm Street. These are all great movies that are highly popular during Halloween.

PS: Golden tip when targeting Mexico during Halloween
Anything with Donald Trump’s face on it is scary enough for the Mexicans. Remember when a mask of Donald Trump’s face became a hit in Mexico? Exactly. Mexicans can describe him in one word: “Frightening”!
