The best Sims 4 mods for custom content decoration for Halloween

The Sims 4 gives you the opportunity to have a proper Halloween celebration (well, Spooky Day celebration) with the Seasons DLC. If you have the Spooky Stuff DLC you have even more options when it comes to decoration, but hardcore simmers will probably want more. There's always an excuse for the next CC binge.

It's important to differentiate Halloween content from regular horror-themed offerings. The Sims 4 community produces plenty of spooky CCs every week, but Halloween-specific items are a little harder to find. That being said, this list is a great place to start preparing for Spooky Day.

9 Jar of sweet corn

• Creator: SimderTalia
• Available on: Simblr

This decorative jar is not suitable for consumption, but that's okay: no one eats sweet corn anyway. Despite their sickeningly sweet taste and frankly disgusting consistency, these hideous candies have been a staple of Halloween celebrations since dinosaurs walked the earth. Therefore, you are sure to find them in almost every candy dish during the spooky season.

For nearly a decade, your Sims lived happily in a world untainted by the presence of candy corn. But you're a cruel and indifferent guardian and can't resist the lure of more random clutter that makes your homes look more lived-in. Continue. Download the candy corn. Watch your Sims suffer.

8 Spooky iced teas

• Creator: Hydra
• Available on: Patreon

While there is a small but dedicated group of simmers creating custom recipes, purchasable foods are far more common in the world of custom content. These delicious treats can be purchased for any event or party, giving your Sims something to munch on without the hassle of cooking.

These Hydra iced teas are absolutely adorable and come in decorative glasses themed after various Halloween creatures. They're great for your next costume party or movie night and taste just as good as they look (at least for your Sims). However, they are also ideal as an organizational item.

7 Agora decor set

• Creator: Mechtasimen
• Available on: Patreon

For those looking to add some class to their Halloween decorations, there aren't many options. If you're not a big fan of pumpkins and giant lawn skeletons, you might have a hard time finding custom content that appeals to you. But Mechtasims has managed to deliver, and fans of alpha-textured custom content will do just fine.

There are a few different decorative items included in this set, including a deck of tarot cards, a mysterious rusty key and a coffin. Halloween is the perfect occasion to decorate your home with these items, but you can also use them as organizers for vampire and wizard Sims.

6 ATS4 Halloween Clutter

• Creator: Sandy on Around the Sims 4.
• Available on: ATS4 website

If there's one certainty in this world, it's that Around the Sims 4 always comes out on top when it comes to object clutter. This site has been your one-stop shop for more down-to-earth decor since the game's earliest days, helping Simmers around the world add a more lived-in feel to their Sims' homes.

The star of the show is the wide selection of Halloween mugs included in this set, available both empty and filled with delicious seasonal drinks. You can also shower your kids and dogs with Halloween toys, including a skeleton, a black cat, Frankenstein's monster, an eyeball and…corn?

5 Love spells and occult books

• Creator: Hydra
• Available on: Patreon

For those of you who prefer a more realistic texture to your custom content, the options can be pretty bleak. Fortunately, Hydra has worked hard on the alpha decoration to make your downloading pleasure easier. These occult items are great for anyone looking to add a more subtle spooky vibe to their home.

If there are spell-casting Sims in your household, this set is great for making your home a little more witchy. None of the books and spells are functional, but that shouldn't matter too much. If there's one thing Sims 4 players love, it's more organization items for their Sims' homes.

4 Halloween toys

• Creator: Sandy on Around the Sims 4.
• Available on: website

Around the Sims 4 may be best known for its decorating and organizing items, but it's also home to several toys that will brighten up your Sims' childhood. When trick-or-treating is over, your kids can finish off their well-deserved sugar rush by playing with these adorable Halloween toys.

While there are some purely decorative items in this set, most items can also serve as functional toys. Perhaps the best item is the spooky dollhouse, which looks just as good in a child's room as it does on your Sims' mantel. The ghost and spider toys are also just adorable.

3 Bats and ghost garland

• Creator: Vintage simmer
• Available on: Simblr

It's always nice to have a few simple party decorations on hand. While the Seasons DLC gives players colorful paper garlands and streamers, there's nothing like this that screams “Halloween.” This adorable garland from Vintage-Simmer is a great way to fill that gap.

Sure, you may not have a lot of color options, but the great thing about decorations like this is that they can fit just about any Halloween aesthetic. That being said, it looks great in more homey spaces where you can pass it off as a kids craft project.

2 Animal Crossing Halloween set

• Creator: SimderTalia
• Available on: Simblr

It's always a blast finding custom fandom-related content, but no one expected Animal Crossing items to pop up. The Halloween items you can get in New Horizons are nothing short of adorable, and there's a lot of crossover between Animal Crossing and The Sims player groups. Looking back, this crossover is only natural.

The recreations you can download for your Sims 4 game are surprisingly faithful to the graphical style of Animal Crossing, although they've been tweaked a bit to avoid being too intrusive in The Sims. Perhaps the most impressive piece is the spooky carriage: it may not be a functional vehicle, but it's definitely cute.

1 SimderTalia's Simblreen Set 2022

• Creator: SimderTalia
• Available on: Simblr

Sure, this may not be the most dramatic custom content out there, but in terms of versatility, it's great. Custom content that looks like something a real person might actually have in their home is always welcome, and these adorable Halloween knick-knacks will fill you with nostalgia.

The porch decorations aren't particularly scary and fall more into the category of cute fall decorations you might see at your grandma's house. There's also a selection of Halloween-themed dolls that you can add to your Sims' collection shelf or use to organize your child's room.
