As we celebrate Halloween today, we thought it was fitting to look at just a few of the quirky Halloween ideas for which patent and design applications have been filed.

One inventor sought to combine two of the biggest holidays together, to create JP2017144100 (A), an 'ornament kit for Christmas and Halloween'. With a traditional Christmas tree and lighting as well as a detachable jack-o'-lantern wearing a witch's hat and jacket that covers the sides of the tree, this patent application effectively caters to both holidays. Christmas can be an expensive holiday, but this invention saves money by providing a multi-functional tree. If, like a lot of people, you start organising Christmas early, this may be for you.
