Haunted House ideas?

psyco scene in the bathroom with a foil knife

Here are some ideas: Take the lightbuld out in the bathroom, anyone using it will have a dreadful time. Bedroom: get something that resembles a gravestone and lay it on the bed (like from that scene from Halloween?) and keep the windows wide open, hopefully a cold night will fill the room. Kitchen. You need a flickering light (avoid candles, don't want to really create a horror scene now do we!!) and smear the floor with ketchup or something similar but in the style as if something has been dragged along.........open the windows to allow the chill flow through. The livingroom: splatter some of that red sauce up the wall, but remember blood really does splatter so don't over do it. Windows...wide open. dimmed lights. Maybe you can get a CD or create one with faint but unusal noises.

Use spider web, buy a black light, and possibly make some things out of paper. Also buy some cheap Scary Sounds CD's, that might help some what.

You could fill the bathtub with red water to look like blood and get a plastic skeleton and lie it down in the tub.Hang string cobwebs everywhere, use pipe cleaners and pompoms to make spiders.maybe you could lite out refreshments with plastic creepy crawlies in them. Wrap up a huge doll in toilet paper as a mummy and put it in a large cardboard box painted.Maybe you could put a mummy in a bed in the bedroom.At the entrance there could be jack-o-lanterns. Think about lights and sound effects, these are just some ideas hope they help you!

take some fake spider and hook them to a string you can pull up and down And take sheets of bubble wrap and display it in dark spaces so when they step on it they scream

You should figure out how old the kids coming are going to be. You don't wanna scare them too bad if they are pretty young. That would get the parents mad. Or have two versions, an early one that isn't so scary and a later one for older kids and adults.
