61 Most Valuable Halloween Collectibles

Take something cool and make it hard to find, and you have yourself a collectible. It doesn’t matter if it’s an old penny or a Beanie Baby. The fewer there are available, the more it’s worth. It’s simple supply and demand, and the same principles apply to Halloween decorations. 

Many vintage Halloween collectibles date back to the 1930s or earlier. It’s amazing that such delicate decorations lasted nearly 100 years, but it’s even wilder that people have spent hundreds, even thousands, of dollars to add one of these gems to their collection.

Of all the antique Halloween decorations out there in the world, these are the 61 most valuable. 

Value: $205.26

Bottom line: This miniature witch collectible is less than six inches tall, but she sold for over $200. Handmade in the 1970s, she’s intended to dwell in a dollhouse. 

We’re not talking about the kind of dollhouse you can buy at Target, or even an expensive wooden one at Pottery Barn. Those are for kids, but there’s another entire facet of the dollhouse world that’s mostly for serious collectors.

Detailed houses and dolls made on a 1:12 scale are added to over years, even decades, to create realistic, miniature scenes with startling detail. Many dolls are sold in the $30-50 range, but a single doll for over $200 is impressive. 

Value: $225.50

Bottom line: Light up your Halloween with this delightful 1920s Halloween collectible. Made in Germany for the Beistle company, the 12-panel lantern measures seven inches by nine inches.

While small in size, this rare collectible is highly detailed, featuring intricate Halloween-themed illustrations on each panel. The entire lantern can be folded flat for easy storage.

Even with some smudges and stains, the vintage lantern sold for over $200.

Value: $231.38

Bottom line: This Halloween collectible is definitely haunted. Just look at it. The small, paper mache jack-o’-lantern man is clearly old, but the seller wasn’t sure where it came from.

He guessed it was likely from Germany due to its similarities with other German-made Halloween collectibles, but the year it was made remains a mystery.

Value: $232.50

Bottom line: While this list is admittedly about the value of each collectible rather than our personal taste, we have to admit that this adorable set is our favorite Halloween collectible. Each of the four characters is handmade and has sweet, round faces and detailed costumes. 

Made on a 1:12 scale, these tiny works of art were made over 40 years ago by an artisan figurine designer named Julie Stevens. With the largest figurine measuring just one and an eighth inches tall, this set is a crossover collectible that appeals to two different collecting niches: Halloween collectibles and miniatures. 

They’re so cute that we’d probably buy them ourselves if they weren’t over $200.
