Halloween Decorating and Traditions
Below are some halloween decorating ideas and some halloween traditions that people have. There's
halloween kids craft activities and other fun stuff!
Make a scary man for your front porch or house! Get an outfit of your own clothes
like jeans, a hooded sweathshirt, and shoes. Then stuff the clothes with crinkled up newspaper. Put a scary halloween
mask over the face and then put the body on your front porch in a chair!
Outside lighting. Get orange lights (like Chrismas lights but orange). Put
them around your front door or porch and windows. Don't make them perfectly square though. Make them kind of messy,
it's scarier!
Hanging skeletons with college team jerseys! Get some skeletons from the store and
some college sports T-shirts of teams you don't like. Rip up the t-shirts a little and then put them on the skeletons.
Hang the skeletons from your front porch!
Outside scary sounds! Add to the scary CD's from the halloween store! Ok, get
a tape recorder and your friends together. Put on a scary halloween CD for background noise. Now start recording
your own voices with stuff like: "I'm going to get You!" and "Here we come!". You can also make scary laughing
sounds and other stuff. Then play the tape when tricker treaters are coming!
More outside lighting! Get a strobe light (flashes really bright over and over),
and put it behind one of the bushed in your front yard. Put another scary guy or a scary mask next to it that gets lit
up by the light. Set it to flash as slow as possible to make it scary!
A REAL Live Scary Man! Get your dad or someone to dress up like the stuffed man above.
Put some newspapers in his shirt so people think he's fake. Then have him not move until the trick or treaters are real
close. Them have him jump up and scream!
Big Spider on the Roof! Ok either go buy a big spider or make one with wire from
closet hangers with black fuzzy yarn wrapped around them. Then get your Dad to put it on your roof. Another fun
thing to do is to put it on your driveway and tie a long string to it. Hide in the bushes, then when trick or treaters
are walking by pull the string so they think it is going to get them!
