halloween bat decor

Common lighting types include LED lights (warm white or micro 'fairy' LEDs), incandescent mini bulbs used in some window silhouettes, and flameless LED pillar lights found in lantern-style pieces.

Lighted bat decorations typically use built-in on/off switches on the base or battery pack, or a plug-in cord with a lead. Some plug-in silhouettes also include replacement bulbs and suction cups for mounting.

3D bat stickers provide bendable wings for a raised, three-dimensional look, are black on both sides for reversible display, and typically include double-sided adhesive for easy mounting on smooth surfaces.

Bat decorations can be freestanding on tabletops or mantels, hung from ceilings or doorways using included hanging hooks, applied to walls or windows with double-sided adhesive, or used as dangling swirls from ceilings or tabletops.

Lighted bat decorations are powered either by batteries—commonly 3 AAA cells—or by an electric plug-in connection.

Setup ranges from fully pre-assembled pieces and stickers that only require folding and adhesive, to lighted trees that need simple adult assembly and either battery insertion or a plug connection.
