How to Make Bubble Foggers

Create a fog effect using dry ice.

Bubble foggers can be created with the use of dry ice placed in a tall container or cauldron. Dry ice creates a creepy, crawling fog that works best for a Halloween party or haunted house. Dry ice is a dangerous substance that can burn the skin when touched, but it makes an exciting smoking effect when placed in water. Bubble foggers require a little more work than just placing dry ice in water, but they are still a fun addition to any Halloween scene.

Things You'll Need

• Cauldron
• Dry ice
• Warm water
• Dish soap
• Food coloring

Instructions

1. Fill the cauldron with water to about three-quarters capacity.

2. Place five to seven drops of dish liquid soap into the cauldron of water. Use five drops of liquid soap for every half gallon of water.

3. Place five drops of food coloring into the cauldron for every half gallon of water.

4. Place five to 15 pounds of dry ice, carefully, into the cauldron of water. Add a bigger piece of ice if you want to produce more fog, or are using a big container.
