# Blood-Splattered Sneakers These Halloween-Themed Basketball Sneakers Feature Speckled Red Accents By David Ingram | Published 2015-10-20 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blood-splattered References: [sneakernews](http://sneakernews.com/2015/10/19/first-look-at-the-nike-lebron-13-halloween/) & [instagram](https://instagram.com/p/85dZDoSoD3/) Just in time for Halloween, these blood-spattered sneakers from [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunk-mid) take a popular shoe model and give it subtly violent accents. Resembling something Patrick Bateman from 'American Psycho' might wear, these Nike LeBron 13 'Halloween' [basketball sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lebron-xxii) come in a ghostly white colorway. Where the shoes really stand out however is the bloody red speckled design that is featured throughout the bottom outsole of the shoe. A red blood-spattered effect is featured on the sneakers and is even included on the tips of the shoe's laces as well for an extra decorative element. Perhaps a little too violent for some, these high-end Halloween sport sneakers are certainly appropriately themed for lovers of [scary slasher movies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/horrific-crocs). There is currently no set release date but sneaker collectors can expect Nike to make an announcement sometime in the near future. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.9/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 21% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Halloween-themed Sneakers:** Opportunity for fashion brands to create limited edition sneakers with Halloween-inspired designs. - **Subtle Violent Accents:** Potential for designers to incorporate subtle violent motifs into various fashion accessories. - **Decorative Element Sneakers:** Chance for sneaker brands to collaborate with artists to create unique and decorative elements on shoes. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunities for companies to create Halloween-themed accessories like handbags, hats, and scarves. - **Sportswear:** Sports brands can explore the market for themed sneakers that cater to specific events or holidays. - **Collaborative Design:** Potential for artists and designers to collaborate with fashion brands to create limited edition sneaker collections. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Festive Crackled Low-Cut Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunk-low-halloween-1.md) - [Villain-Inspired Futuristic Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-flightposite.md) - [Horror Film-Inspired Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/horrific-crocs.md) - [Red-Accented Basketball Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/true-red-colorway.md) - [Valentine's-Inspired Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/valentines-day-2025-sneakers.md) - [Basketball-Shaped Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-baller.md) - [Horror-Creature-Inspired Footwear Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/universal-monsters-collection.md) - [Greyscale Leather Speckled Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fear-colorway-1.md) - [Horror Clown Clogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/classic-clog-pennywise.md)
