If you have played a rack full of horror games like I have done, Halloween will be etched in your mind in ways that no one else can comprehend. So, when I set up my gaming man cave, I made it a ritual to bring the in-game feeling to life—and Halloween provides me with the perfect opportunity to do that.
The uncanny behavior that started a few years ago has become a sort of family tradition. I have succeeded in converting some of my family members into Halloween freaks too. Last year, I started adding Halloween elements to my gaming man cave and I plan to expand it further this year.
Searching through Amazon, I found some cool items that would make my gaming man cave glow and I have compiled a list that I want to share with my readers. If there is any item you believe will make a great addition to my gaming man cave besides the ones that I mentioned below, feel free to call my attention to it in the comment box.
Scary Night Lights
What is Halloween without scary night lights? This year, the focus will move away from just the inside of my gaming man cave to the outside so that whenever I peer out of the window during my midnight horror gaming sessions, I will feel the chill—sorry for my neighbors.

I found this cool Aogist Halloween eyeball lights that’s just perfect for what I have in mind. The eyeball-shaped lights glow green which will add creepiness to a howling windy night. What I love about the lights is that they are waterproof and sway with the wind like fireflies.
Halloween Themed Cat Toys
My cat has been my gaming companion for the past year. Cuddling her fuzzy body helps me maintain my cool during midnight play sessions in my mostly lonely gaming man cave. To celebrate her first birthday, I will get her cool Potaroma Cat Toys.
These cute toys can trap light when exposed to strong light and will glow in the dark, which is cool. When their lights dim out, just expose them to lights and they’ll glow again. I’ll finally have a way to play with my little furry fellow. If you are a cat person, it’s something you should check out too.
Horror Knife Cat Toys
It’s hard to imagine horror without slashing and blood. Still on my cat’s birthday, I found these Potaroma Halloween cat knives that come in a set of four containing two knives, an axe, and a saw—they are all toys, so no need to panic. It looked like several horror games jungled in one.

My cat loved it so much and has been biting on them since they arrive. They never leave her grip. My gaming man cave is often a lonely place but she has made the weight of the silence lighter since she arrived. Therefore, she deserves all the love that I shower on her.
Just curious, what are the games you play with your cat? Let me know in the comment box below.
Inflatable Ghost Pumpkin
Night lights are not my only plans for the outside of my gaming man cave. This Halloween, the outside of my gaming man cave window will be occupied by a 5 feet inflatable pumpkin ghost—which is really easy to install.
It has built-in LEDs. So, when you blow it up, just plug it into an available socket and the giant ghost will transform your lawn—or anywhere else you choose to place it. They are waterproof and made with durable polyester so that you can use them for many more Halloween seasons to come.
There are different variants of this inflatable outdoor décor including a 10 ft scary dead tree, a 6.2 ft ghost holding a broom, a 4.8 ft ghost holding a candy, a 12 ft spooky flame lamp ghost, and a 5 ft ghost with pumpkin and black cat. You can mix and match to give your outdoors a stellar spooky look.
Grim Reaper Costume
Halloween preparations can never be complete without a spooky costume. I got this Grim Reaper Costume for my daughter and she has been literally over the moon. Call it my way of bribing her to give me more peace during play sessions in my gaming man cave.

It is one of the most complete sets of Halloween costumes I found with a cape, hood, glasses, scythe, chain, black crow that perches on the head, and gloves that give her a skeleton look. They are breathable and comfortable too which is never a trade-off for me.
It is still a few weeks before Halloween and one of the ways to avoid the mad rush and heartbreaks of undelivered purchases or late arrivals is to start shopping early. Which of the items above will you add to your collection this year?
