Alright, let’s talk about them horror movie decorations, you know, the kind that make your house look like somethin’ out of a spooky picture show. I ain’t no fancy decorator, mind you, but I know a thing or two about makin’ things look creepy.
First off, you gotta have them spiderwebs. You know, the fake kind you can buy at the store. Just string ’em all over the place, on the porch, in the windows, heck, even on the furniture. The more the merrier, I always say. And don’t forget them pumpkins. Big ones, small ones, orange ones, white ones, whatever you can find. Carve ’em up with scary faces or just leave ’em plain. They look spooky either way.
- Fake spiderwebs all over
- Pumpkins, lots of ’em
- Skeletons, if you can stomach ’em
Now, if you really wanna scare the pants off folks, you gotta get yourself some skeletons. Them plastic ones work just fine. Hang ’em from the trees, prop ’em up on the porch, put ’em in the chairs. Just imagine walkin’ into a room and seein’ a skeleton sittin’ there, starin’ at ya. Gives ya the chills, don’t it? And don’t forget about them tombstones. You can stick ’em in the yard, make it look like a graveyard. Kids love that kinda stuff, and it ain’t too hard to do neither.
And speakin’ of graveyards, you can get real fancy if you want. Make a whole graveyard scene in your front yard. Get some fake tombstones, maybe a skeleton or two, and some of them creepy groundbreaker zombies that look like they’re crawlin’ out of the ground. Throw in some extra-large crows, them black ones, and a “beware” sign, and you got yourself a spooky sight.
Eerie lightin’ is important too. You don’t want everything all bright and cheerful. Get yourself some dim lights, maybe some red or green ones. And them fog machines, oh boy, them fog machines are the best. They make everything look all mysterious and spooky. You can’t see nothin’ but fog, and then somethin’ jumps out at ya, whoo! That’ll get folks screamin’.
If you’re a fan of them horror movies, like I am, then you can go all out. Make your house look like it’s straight out of a scary film. Think about them movies you like, the ones with the creepy houses and the spooky stuff. You can copy them ideas, you know. Like, if you seen a movie with a creepy doll, get yourself a creepy doll and put it somewhere unexpected. Or if you seen a movie with a bloody handprint on the wall, make yourself a bloody handprint and put it on your wall. Just use your imagination, that’s what I say.
And don’t forget the spooky sound effects! You can get CDs or tapes with all kinds of creepy noises on ’em. Screams, howls, chains rattlin’, the works. Play that stuff in the background and it’ll really set the mood. You can even hide a little speaker somewhere and play the sounds when people least expect it. That’ll make ‘em jump!
Heck, you can even get the whole family involved. Dress up in costumes, make it a whole party. You know, watch them spooky movies on the TV, eat off Halloween plates, drink pumpkin spice coffee, the whole shebang. Make it a fun time for everyone, not just a scary time.
So there you have it, some ideas for makin’ your house look scary for Halloween. It ain’t rocket science, you know. Just use your imagination, have some fun, and don’t be afraid to get a little creepy. And remember, the goal is to make people say, “Whoa, that’s spooky!” If you can do that, then you done good.
This year, I thought I’d share these ideas with ya’ll so even you can pull off these spine-tingling decorations. So there you go, get to decoratin’!
