Oh a few more... place mini strobe lights INSIDE your home on your window sills facing the street. From the outside, your home appears to be storming Inside and has a science lab effect. Car riders will give your home a 2nd look. ALso, don't forget to cover your furniture and windows with old white sheets and smear your bloody hands down using any red washable paint.Put roaches EVERYWHERE. Replace light bulbs with orange, put rats by trash and in closets. Use small fans to make zombie cloaks sway. Add broken mirrors through out house, hallway, bath etc. Cut out bugs or bats in black paper and add inside lamp shade. Cut out silouette of person and put in windows for that "is someone there" feeling. I have more but I'm tired. happy halloween

To continue my comment....place a zombie or skeleton behind bath door or corner of bathroom. Must place heads or body parts in a bathroom closet to startle. In the bedroom, place a corpse or ghoul in your bed, partly under the sheets. At first glance, its someone napping. Write REDRUM on mirror using dry erase markers.My favorite idea is printing ugly, disgusting pics of death, corpses, deformed faces etc and putting them in cheap frames throughout the house. Remove your family photos and replace with Charles Manson, Frankenstein, Freddie Kruegar, a murdered victim etc.Its disgusting but has an eerie effect to the rest of your home.

I'd like to add some ideas for the rooms not normally decorated during halloween or for your Nosey guests!Some ideas are hanging thread or fishing wire from the hall ceilings or door entry.Its invisible & feels like spider web. Add baby oil and that 1 strand feels gross. Fill your pantry,closets or drawers with roaches,rats and spiders. Its unexpected and scares easily! After using a can of corn,peas etc, clean out and stick a rat inside it with its tail hanging out in corners of rooms or beside the trash cans. In the bath,keep a body or skeleton in the bathtub. Fill with water and red food coloring. Have the shower dripping for sound effect or hang a body from a noose from the shower head. Keep roaches,eyeballs,spiders,fingers, etc in the medicine cabinet or drawers of the bathroom. I once shoved pingpong balls as eyeballs in the med.cabinet and could hear them fall into the sink!the no
