Okay, so my best friend and I have a tradition of decorating his front porch for halloween together every year. Last year it looked phenomenal as he had a strobe light, sirens, so many cobwebs you couldn't see in his windows and a sacrecrow hanging. This year we want to make it amazing, just absolutely horrifying. I was at Wal Mart tonight and saw that they have tons of awesome decorations this year. These included jelly blood that stick to walls, caskets and crosses of all sizes.

What exactly do you nice folks suggest would look amazing for his front porch set up? Note, his porch has many beams to hang things from, and a somewhat bare garden in front.

Any help would be awesome! Thanks!

Whatever you end up doing please post a photo! It sounds like you have done some really cool stuff in the past.

Spooky Sam...bare garden=cemetery!! And beams to hang things from, well, that just immediately made me think of dead bodies hanging, in various states of decomposition!! All the other things you mentioned from past efforts sounded awesome, sounds like you know what to do!! one of the best websites I've seen for ideas and how-to's is called deathndementia.com...check it out!

For some reason, I keep thinking of House of 1000 Corpses with Baby's dismembered dollies everywhere. Always a creepy look.

Can you tell me what you used to for the cob webs. I too have stobe lights, a fog machine, loud loud scary sounds & noises (my neighbors windows rattle), nanging bodies, etc...I love it...but I want to cover my 2 story house in cobwebs and don't know what to use.

Any info would be appreciated.
