my family and i are planning a halloweenn and want to turn our house into a haunted house. we want to make the props not buy them. we want it to be scarry. do you have any ideas for home made decorations? or any links?
make tombstones and create a haunted graveyard in the front yard. Write fun sayings on the tombstones like:
Here lies my wife, I bid her goodbye. She rests in peace and now so do I.
Here lies Henry Blake
he stepped on the gas instead of the brake

decorate the doorway with corn stalks covered in cobwebs, big fake spiders and bats or birds
blow up balloons and cover with white material for ghosts, hang from trees
you can pick up a smoke machine and a strobe light from walmart really cheap
play scary music
make caskets out of cardboard – put skeleton inside with cobwebs and white string lights, cover with plexiglass or an old sheet of glass – to look like this:

hang a skeleton from a tree with rope – you can find the skeletons for around 7 bucks at Walgreens, CVS, Brooks, etc.

make a coffin out of a box, spray paint it black. Put a cheap plastic face or skull inside.
Take some bundled up newspaper and cover it with old burlap or any old cloth :
