In October, things tend to get spooky at the Dubrow Chateau. We've seen Heather Dubrow and her family celebrate the season of spooks with spider cookies, candy corn martinis, and even fabulous Halloween trees. But this year, it seems that The Real Housewives of Orange County alum is taking a more understated — yet still classic — approach to her decor. 

In a recent Instagram Story, the podcast host shared a look at her sole piece of spooky decor thus far. Zooming in on an intricately carved jack-o-lantern, which was tucked into some foliage, Heather wrote: "Here is my one Halloween decoration ... courtesy of [my son Nick Dubrow.]" The 16-year-old has some pretty sweet carving skills, we must say — that gourd is wearing a perfectly grim expression.

And in the meantime, there's plenty more Halloween decor in Orange County. Heather's fellow RHOC alum Gretchen Rossi has set her dining room table with bats and crows, while Gina Kirschenheiter's new house is teeming with skulls and black cats.
