These frightening pieces of footwear are quite unlike any other pair of pumps. With Halloween fast approaching, these [haunting heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/universal-monsters-collection) should definitely be considered for some gruesome costumes. Designed by Esty seller Steamhatter, these scary shoes feature a [white platform heel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/8inch-flipflops) with ultra-fine and glittered soles. Ric-rac lines decorate an opening which perfectly complements their ribbon and rhinestone detail. On the toe of each shoe is a refashioned resin skull made to look like an [evil clown head](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-heel). The clown heads are complete with wild red hair, red clown noses, ruby eyes and decaying teeth. 'Evil Skull Clown Heels' are best paired with a little black dress for the ultimate statement or a sexy clown costume for an exaggerated look. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 52% | Activity: 35% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sinister Style Footwear:** Creating accessories that embody a dark and eerie personality with unique designs and twisted embellishments to stand out. - **Holiday Themed Shoes:** Designing footwear that celebrates special occasions like Halloween with creative and imaginative features. - **Horror Fashion:** Fusing fashion and fear by creating clothing and accessories that showcase spooky and sinister designs. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Industry:** Pushing boundaries in the fashion industry with unconventional designs for shoes, clothing, and accessories to cater to different styles and preferences. - **Halloween Costume Industry:** Revamping traditional Halloween costumes by adding unique details and accessories to make a bold statement. - **Special Effects Industry:** Incorporating different techniques and materials to create intricate designs and textures for accessories geared towards special occasions and events like Halloween and horror. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Horror Film-Inspired Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/horrific-crocs.md) - [Gothic Style Perforated Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stomp-clog.md) - [Spooky Back-to-School Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keds-x-monster-high.md) - [Eye-Adorned Furry Mules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eyeball-mules.md) - [Illusory Doll-Like Heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/illusion-boots.md) - [Platform Statement Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/8inch-flipflops.md) - [Crackled Holiday-Inspired Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-5.md) - [Dynamic Ultra-High Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platform-sneaker-1.md) - [Romanticized Shoe Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mademe-x-dr-martens-1461-quad-shoe.md)
