LT Halloween is a costume and party supplies shop theme for Elementor (free): a hero that draws the helium counter as a float chart (each balloon as high as the time it stays up, as wide as its size), a Halloween floor band for the busy season, costume collections and catalogue rows with example prices and an 'Ask about this' link on every item, a party year with what is in the shop each month, balloons, tableware, decorations and party packs, how balloon orders work, opening hours and a balloon order and costume question form. A Hello Elementor child theme with bundled fonts, one-page mode and a mobile menu.

Home page sections

The home page sections, in order, with the name they have in Elementor’s Navigator and their CSS ID (the anchor used by one-page mode and by links such as /#counter).

  • The balloon counter: The home page opens with a float chart: each balloon drawn as high as the time it stays up and as wide as its size, with the price under its string.
  • Costumes by collection: Halloween, decades and themes, wigs, masks and face paint as catalogue rows with sizes, example prices and an 'Ask about this' link.
  • Busy season, all-year shop: A midnight band for the Halloween floor and a party year that lists what is in the shop every month.
  • Party supplies and packs: Balloons, tableware, decorations and party packs by headcount, with how a balloon order works step by step.
  • Free Elementor and a ready order form: Every page is built with free Elementor widgets on Hello Elementor, with a balloon order and costume question form made with the free WPForms Lite plugin. Fonts are bundled: no Google Fonts requests.

The demo import creates this main menu (Appearance → Menus):

  • Home
  • Costumes → Halloween costumes (Witches and wizards, Classic monsters, Animals and creatures), Decades and themed parties, Wigs, masks and face paint
  • Party supplies → Balloons, Tableware and decorations
  • About
  • Party notes
  • Visit

Header button: Order balloons (link /visit/#request), changed in Appearance → Customize → LT Halloween options.

One-page mode (Pro)

With Pro Standard or Pro Unlimited, tick One-page mode on the home page in Appearance → Customize → LT Halloween options and the menu scrolls to these sections: Balloon counter, Halloween floor, Costumes, In the shop this week, The party year, Party supplies, How balloon orders work, Party notes, Visit. To change the labels or leave sections out, see One-page mode.

Used the old LT Halloween onepage WordPress theme? It is not sold any more: version 2.0 is one theme for both. Install its Pro edition and turn on one-page mode.

Form

With WPForms Lite active, the demo import creates the form Balloon order or costume question on the Visit page. Fields: Your name (required), Email (required), Phone (optional), What can we help with? (required), Party date and collection time, How many guests?, Collect or delivery, What you need. Email subject: “Balloon order or costume question from the website”. After sending, visitors see: “Thank you. Someone at the counter replies by email or phone within one working day, and confirms balloon orders with the collection time.”

See Contact form for where messages go and how to change the fields.

Demo content to replace

Everything marked with one of these in the demo is sample content: names, numbers, prices and addresses that you replace with your own (or delete):

  • (sample)
  • Example prices
  • example.com
  • (555)
  • Moonrise Costume and Party
  • Orchard Street
  • Springfield
  • Keep the float chart honest: a balloon's height is its float time (lt-up class) and its width its size (lt-sz class); change them with the label, and never add a balloon as decoration.
  • Glow-stick green marks 'now' on the midnight band only; pumpkin is for buttons and links.
  • No brand names, licensed characters or film costumes, no gore, no reviews presented as real; there is no online checkout, so buttons go to the request form or the phone.

Only publish facts that are true for your business: real prices, opening hours, reviews and qualifications. Pro Unlimited’s launch checker lists every sample marker left on the site.

Photo guide

The demo uses placeholder pictures. Replace each one in Elementor (click it → Choose image) with a photo of about this size; save photos as JPEG or WebP under about 300 KB.

AI kit (Pro Unlimited)

Questions about LT Halloween

Do I need Elementor Pro?

No. LT Halloween uses only the free Elementor plugin and the free Hello Elementor theme. The header and footer are part of the theme, so you do not need Theme Builder.

Is it only for Halloween?

No. Halloween is one band and one season; the costumes, balloon counter, party supplies and the party year work in every month. Change the October colours of the balloons in Site Settings.

Does it have an online shop?

No, it is a catalogue: every item has an 'Ask about this' link to the order form, so customers order, hold or collect in the shop. You can add a shop plugin later.

What is the difference between Free and Pro?

Free has the design, header and footer, the About and Visit pages and the blog. Pro adds the home page, costume and party supplies pages, sample posts, one-click demo import, credit removal, updates and support. Pro Unlimited adds the AI kit.

I have the old LT Halloween. Is this an update?

It is a new version 2.0 with a new design, built for free Elementor. Your current site keeps working; install 2.0 on a new site or a staging copy and import the demo there.

Also for Joomla

LT Halloween also exists as a Joomla template: see the LT Halloween Joomla docs.
