120+ Spooky Halloween Blog Post Ideas

Wednesday, September 23, 2020

Looking to write some Halloween content, but don't know where to start? With so many niches and blog post ideas out there, it can be hard to know what generates traffic. Here's a long list of Halloween related blog post ideas for every niche! These ideas are popular and have proven to be great sources of traffic for many bloggers! If you're stuck for Halloween inspired posts, this list is for you!


Seasonal content is great for boosting your blog traffic. You will get lots of people searching for similar content at once. Your traffic should hopefully double if you're ensuring good SEO and promoting the post! When writing your content, make sure you publish a few months before the holiday, not a few days before! I'd recommend posting your Halloween content at the end of August onwards so that potential readers have the chance to find your content before the big day. I have been focusing more on my seasonal content lately, and I have noticed a big difference.

If you're looking to share some Halloween blog posts, here is a long list of ideas you can try. These are popular Halloween posts, so make sure yours stand out. It's also a good idea to vary your content slightly to maximise how much traffic you'll get. I have tried to share ideas for as many blog niches as possible so you won't run out of ideas!
