The leaves are shining in the most beautiful colors and pumpkins are taking over the front porches. It’s time to **welcome the spookiest of all months**: October! To get your desktop ready for fall and the upcoming Halloween season, artists and designers from across the globe once again got their ideas flowing and designed inspiring wallpapers for you to indulge in.

The wallpapers in this post come in versions with and without a calendar for October 2024 and can be downloaded for free. And since so many beautiful and unique designs evolve around our [little wallpapers challenge](https://www.smashingmagazine.com/desktop-wallpaper-calendars-join-in/) every month (we’ve been running it for more than 13 years already, can you believe it?!), we also added some timeless **October treasures** from our [wallpapers archives](https://www.smashingmagazine.com/category/wallpapers) to the collection. Maybe you’ll spot one of _your_ almost-forgotten favorites in here, too?

A huge thank you to everyone who shared their wallpapers with us this month — this post wouldn’t exist without you. Happy October!

* You can **click on every image to see a larger preview**,
* We respect and carefully consider the ideas and motivation behind each and every artist’s work. This is why we give all artists the **full freedom to explore their creativity** and express emotions and experience through their works. This is also why the themes of the wallpapers weren’t anyhow influenced by us but rather designed from scratch by the artists themselves.
* **[Submit a wallpaper!](https://www.smashingmagazine.com/desktop-wallpaper-calendars-join-in/)**
Did you know that _you_ could get featured in our next wallpapers post, too? We are always **looking for creative talent**.
Happy Halloween

Happy Dussehra

“I was inspired by Dussehra’s rich symbolism and cultural significance while creating this design. The festival celebrates the triumph of good over evil. The bow and arrow become the central focus, while the bold red background, golden accents, and the temple’s silhouette add a sense of grandeur and spirituality.” — Designed by [Cronix](https://cronixweb.com/) from the United States.

Bird Migration Portal

“October is a significant month for me because it is when my favorite type of bird travels south. For that reason I have chosen to write about the swallow. When I was young, I had a bird’s nest not so far from my room window. I watched the birds almost every day; because those swallows always left their nests in October. As a child, I dreamt that they all flew together to a nicer place, where they were not so cold.” — Designed by [ Eline Claeys](https://www.behance.net/elineclaeye6ad) from Belgium.

Goddess Makosh

“At the end of the kolodar, as everything begins to ripen, the village sets out to harvesting. Together with the farmers goes Makosh, the Goddess of fields and crops, ensuring a prosperous harvest. What she gave her life and health all year round is now mature and rich, thus, as a sign of gratitude, the girls bring her bread and wine. The beautiful game of the goddess makes the hard harvest easier, while the song of the farmer permeates the field.” — Designed by [PopArt Studio](https://www.popwebdesign.net/graphic%5Fdesign.html) from Serbia.

Transitions

“To me, October is a transitional month. We gradually slide from summer to autumn. That’s why I chose to use a lot of gradients. I also wanted to work with simple shapes, because I think of October as the ‘back to nature/back to basics month’.” — Designed by Jelle Denturck from Belgium.

Shades Of Gold

“We are about to experience the magical imagery of nature, with all the yellows, ochers, oranges, and reds coming our way this fall. With all the subtle sunrises and the burning sunsets before us, we feel so joyful that we are going to shout it out to the world from the top of the mountains.” — Designed by [PopArt Studio](https://www.popwebdesign.net/index%5Feng.html) from Serbia.

First Scarf And The Beach

“When I was little, my parents always took me and my sister for a walk at the beach in Nieuwpoort. We didn't really do those beach walks in the summer but always when the sky started to turn gray and the days became colder. My sister and I always took out our warmest scarfs and played in the sand while my parents walked behind us. I really loved those Saturday or Sunday mornings where we were all together. I think October (when it’s not raining) is the perfect month to go to the beach for ‘uitwaaien’ (to blow out), to walk in the wind and take a break and clear your head, relieve the stress or forget one’s problems.” — Designed by [Gwen Bogaert](https://www.instagram.com/bogaertgwen/) from Belgium.

Roger That Rogue Rover

“The story is a mash-up of retro science fiction and zombie infection. What would happen if a Mars rover came into contact with an unknown Martian material and got infected with a virus? What if it reversed its intended purpose of research and exploration? Instead choosing a life of chaos and evil. What if they all ran rogue on Mars? Would humans ever dare to voyage to the red planet?” Designed by [Frank Candamil](https://rise.net) from the United States.
