Halloween Bats - Realistic Rubber Hanging Bat Decoration, 11.5cm to 27cm

Description

These Halloween bats are realistic black rubber bats with a hanging string, sold one per order in four sizes from 11.5cm to 27cm, from $18.81. Hang them from a ceiling, porch, doorway or tree branch and they look like they have just landed - one of the simplest ways to add creepy detail to a Halloween party or haunted house.

Paper and plastic bat cut-outs look flat up close. A soft rubber bat has texture, weight and a realistic shape, so it still looks convincing when guests walk right under it. Because the rubber is soft and flexible, it is also safe to hang over a doorway - if one drops, it bounces rather than breaks. Mix the four sizes and you can build a whole colony that looks like it has moved into the house.

What's in the Box

Why Rubber Halloween Bats Work

• Realistic up close - textured rubber looks far more convincing than paper cut-outs.
• Soft and flexible - safe to hang over doorways and walkways.
• Four sizes - mix them for a natural-looking colony.
• Reusable - rubber packs away flat and comes out again next year.
• Works anywhere - ceilings, porches, trees, light fittings and party tables.

How Do You Hang Halloween Bats?

Use the hanging string on each bat, or swap it for clear fishing line so the bats look like they are flying. Tie them to removable adhesive hooks on the ceiling, a curtain rod, a light fitting (away from hot globes) or a porch beam. Hang them at staggered heights rather than in a straight line, and cluster bigger bats near a corner with smaller ones spreading out - that is what makes a display look like a colony instead of a row.

How Many Bats Do You Need for a Halloween Display?

Each order is one bat, so add as many as you need to your cart. As a guide, three to five bats are enough to frame a front door, six to ten mixed sizes make a convincing ceiling cluster, and a tree or porch beam can take a dozen or more. Mixing sizes S to XL gives the most natural look.

Are Rubber Bats Good for Outdoor Halloween Decorations?

Yes, in a sheltered spot. A covered porch, verandah or patio is ideal, and rubber copes with a bit of damp air far better than paper or card. Bring them inside after the night, and avoid leaving them in hot direct sun for days at a time, as heat can soften rubber.

Buyers are typically households decorating a porch or entrance for trick-or-treaters, hosts setting up a haunted house or vampire theme for a Halloween party, schools and childcare centres building a Halloween display, and anyone who wants realistic bats that can be reused every year.
