As Halloween 2025 approaches, Kiwis are getting creative with their spooky displays — from eerie indoor setups to glowing outdoor scenes that wow the whole neighbourhood. But beyond cobwebs and pumpkins, this year’s trend is all about sustainability, smart tech, and reliable power. Whether you’re hosting a haunted house or creating a chilling front-yard display, EcoFlow portable power stations can keep your lights, sound, and projectors running — quietly and eco-friendly. Let’s explore how you can make your Halloween both
spooktacular and sustainable this year.
👻 Top Halloween Trends in New Zealand 2025
Halloween in New Zealand continues to evolve — blending global inspiration with Kiwi creativity. Here are the biggest décor trends for 2025:
1. Sustainable & Eco-Friendly Spooks
This year, go green with your Halloween. Use recycled materials, natural textures, and decorations that can be reused each year. Think cardboard tombstones, fabric banners, and glass-jar lanterns powered by solar or battery lights. Pairing eco-friendly decorations with an EcoFlow Solar Generator lets you power lights and effects completely off-grid — perfect for the environmentally conscious Kiwi home.
2. Kiwiana-Gothic
Add a local twist to your Halloween with native elements. Incorporate dried gum leaves, banksias, and native wildlife motifs like bats or spiders. Imagine a wreath of gum leaves lit up by LED string lights — all powered by your EcoFlow RIVER 2 Max Portable Power Station, lightweight and silent.
3. Tech-Enhanced Scares
In 2025, smart tech takes the stage. Use projectors to cast ghostly images, motion sensors for surprise effects, and Bluetooth speakers for haunting soundscapes. All these devices need reliable power — and that’s where EcoFlow portable power stations shine. Models like the DELTA Pro deliver up to 3600W AC output, running projectors, fog machines, and sound systems without noisy generators or emissions.
🏠 Indoor Halloween Decoration Ideas
Transform your home into a haunted haven — powered by clean, reliable energy.
Eerie Entrance & Hallway
Welcome guests with fog machines, flickering lanterns, and motion-activated sounds. Use smart bulbs or LED strips to shift between orange and purple hues — controlled easily through a smart app connected to your EcoFlow power station.
Haunted Living Room
Drape furniture in black and crimson fabric, add cobwebs, and use a portable projector for ghostly visuals. Power it all with an EcoFlow RIVER 2 or DELTA 2, so you don’t have to worry about wall sockets or messy cords.
Spooky Dining Table
Set a chilling scene with black candles, dried flowers, and themed snacks. For lighting or fog effects, rely on battery-powered setups or a solar generator to keep things running safely indoors.
DIY Halloween Crafts
Get the kids involved with sustainable crafts — paper bats, ghost-painted stones, or pinecone monsters. Use leftover materials and LED tealights powered by a compact portable battery, reducing waste while keeping things safe.
🌙 Outdoor Halloween Displays for the Kiwi Climate
New Zealand’s unpredictable weather calls for durable, weather-resistant setups. Follow these tips for a hauntingly reliable outdoor display:
Weather-Proof & Wind-Ready
Choose decorations made from metal, fabric, or wood rather than cheap plastic. Use Solar lights or LED floodlights powered by EcoFlow portable power stations to ensure your display stays lit, even during cloudy nights.
Pathway to Perdition
Guide trick-or-treaters with glowing pumpkins, skeletal hands, and eerie ambient lighting. Place an EcoFlow DELTA Pro discreetly behind props to power everything silently and safely.
Porch & Verandah Ideas
Hang skeletons, place a bubbling cauldron, and light the area with smart bulbs controlled from your phone. The EcoFlow DELTA Pro or RIVER 2 Max provides quiet, reliable energy for hours of frightful fun.
💡 Lighting: The Secret to a Spooktacular Night
Lighting makes or breaks your Halloween display. Create depth with string lights, spotlights, and colour filters — all powered by renewable energy.
🔋 The EcoFlow DELTA Pro Portable Power Station delivers 3600–7200W of AC power, expandable up to 25kWh. It runs all your Halloween lighting, sound systems, and projectors — with zero noise or fumes.
For smaller setups, the EcoFlow RIVER 2 Max offers lightweight portability and fast recharging in just 1 hour. Pair it with an EcoFlow 220W Solar Panel to harness the sun for sustainable power all night long.
