Let's assume you're the kind of person who likes to get into the Christmas spirit well in advance of the festive season - you did click on this article, after all.
Now, let's also assume that you're slightly embarrassed by how overzealous you may appear by putting up your Christmas tree as early as, say, October.
You desperately want to bring out that huge, heavily-adorned tree to put up in your living room... But at the same time, you're tempted to hide it away - just in case the naysayers put you on blast for your love of all things Christmas.
Fortunately, that no longer has to be the case - provided you're as big a Halloween fan as you are a Christmas enthusiast.
You can just decorate your tree with a range of spooky accessories and voila, it's no longer a Christmas tree, it's legitimately a 'Halloween tree'.
Don't worry, you won't be alone - putting up Halloween trees is an actual thing. In fact, people have been posting snaps of their very own Halloween trees, to their various social media pages.
"Happy 8th day of Halloween!! I’ve been holding off on taking a picture of our living room but its heeeeere!" wrote a Halloween fan in their Instagram caption. "We finally felt like it was time. I had a rough start to the month & its taking me a while to really get into the spirit but its turning around. We have some fun things planned for the rest of the month [sic]."
