Craft Your SignatureHalloween Patches

Halloween patches are custom patches with spooky artwork, like pumpkins, skulls, bats, or haunted houses. We make them as embroidered, woven, PVC, or chenille patches, so the look can be flat and stitched or glossy and raised. They're worn on costumes, jackets, hats, and bags.

No, we make original designs and can't reproduce trademarked characters. That includes any character or logo owned by a studio or brand. Your own spooky artwork is fine. Send it over and you'll approve a free digital proof before we start production.

Yes, as long as you match the backing to how often you'll wash the garment. Sew-on gives the most secure long-term hold, so pick it for garments you'll wash a lot. Iron-on is a quicker no-sew bond, so wash gently and check the garment's care label first.

Check spelling, small text, and thin details like cobwebs, since fine linework is what blurs first. Your free digital proof arrives in 24-48 hours. You can request basic changes. We don't start production until you approve it. If a patch is defective or doesn't match the approved proof, our 14-day guarantee covers a remake, reship, or refund.

Yes, we ship Halloween patches worldwide. Shipping is free. Delivery time depends on your location and adds to production time, so build both into your event date. Tell us where it's going and when you need it, and we'll say if the timing works.

The American Patches is a custom patch company with front offices in the US and Canada. We were founded in 2024 and are backed by 15+ years of patch-making experience. Our products include custom embroidered, woven, PVC, and chenille patches, plus enamel pins and challenge coins. We've served more than 1,000 customers.

Yes, glow-in-the-dark thread is available on some patch types, so outlines, eyes, or lettering can show in the dark. Whether it works depends on the patch type and design, so mention it when you request your quote. We'll confirm the glow elements on your free digital proof before production.

Yes, iron-on backing is available on embroidered, woven, PVC, and chenille Halloween patches. It's a heat-activated adhesive, so you press the patch on with an iron instead of sewing. It works well on hoodies and denim. Test thin costume fabrics first, since high heat can scorch them.

Standard production takes 7-14 business days after you approve your proof. Your free digital proof arrives in 24-48 hours. If Halloween is close, rush production is available on request for a small priority fee. Rush timelines depend on the patch type, so tell us your event date and we'll confirm whether it fits on your free proof. Shipping time comes on top.

Yes, there's no minimum order, so one patch for one costume is fine. Quantity affects your price, not whether we'll take the order. Send your design and the date you need it by, and we'll quote it. A single patch gets the same free digital proof as a big order.

Price depends on patch size, quantity, and patch type. Bigger patches use more material, and a rush order adds a small priority fee. Send your artwork, size, quantity, and event date with a quote request, and we'll send exact pricing. Shipping is free worldwide.

Yes, with limits. Embroidery blurs lettering under about 0.2 inches tall and very fine linework, like thin cobweb strands, because thread has width. Woven patches use thinner thread, so they'll hold finer detail. The free digital proof shows how the design will look, and you can ask for changes before production.

Use embroidered for bold, flat artwork, woven for fine detail, PVC for glossy textures, and chenille for varsity-style letters. A stitched pumpkin works well in embroidery, while dripping slime works best in PVC. If you're unsure, send your artwork and we'll suggest a patch type.

Yes, we make horror and alt-fashion patches year-round, so you can order them in any month. Skulls and gothic lettering work as embroidered, woven, or PVC patches for battle jackets and denim. There's no minimum order. Even a single patch for your own jacket is fine.

Yes, you can order Halloween patches in bulk for costume groups, school and PTA events, haunted attractions, and shops running October merch. Send your design and how many you need, and we'll quote the batch. You'll see a free digital proof before the batch goes into production.
