14 bewitchingly queer Halloween t-shirts, jewellery and more for the spooky gay in your life
Halloween is just around the corner and – as we all know – it’s one of the most popular days of the year for LGBT+ people.
This because Halloween is the perfect time to dress up and be whoever you want to be. In fact, it’s even the day when many drag careers are born: you can bust out those fishnets and show people your true self.
Recently, the Mistress of the Dark herself, Elvira came out – so Halloween really couldn’t get any gayer.
If you’re a spooky gay, a queer witch, an enby enchantress or something in between, then this is the most wonderful time of year.
To celebrate, you can get loads of different apparel, jewellery and accessories to rep your queerness during Halloween.
We’ve put together a list of some of the spookiest and coolest items from independent sellers.

We couldn’t complete a queer Halloween round-up without the icon that is Nancy from The Craft. She’s one of the four outcasts who gains magical powers to enact revenge on those who have wronged them. The film is hugely popular among queer people and has become a cult favourite, thanks to its fashion, quotable script and magic, duh. This t-shirt which features Nancy’s line “he’s sorry!” is available to buy from Etsy here.
