Halloween is almost upon us. You all know what that means: time for trick-or-treating, eating candy, watching creepy movies, and dressing up in costume.

But one of the big aspects of the spooky time, which most people neglect, is the decorations. Nowadays, many houses fail to put up any Halloween decorations at all; instead justing leaving their home as it was. It's a real shame.

However, if you want to make a special effort this year, you could try blending this holiday with another one, to create an awesomely-gothic juxtaposition that's certain to be pretty dang striking.

Yes, I'm talking about requisitioning your Christmas tree and turning it into a Halloween decoration instead! Social media users are taking to Instagram en masse to take part in a new fad that's sure to make Halloween 2019 a memorable one.
