jar

OLD JARS:

You can use any jars. Fill jars with water and food coloring in them. Put some fake plastic bugs, frogs or snakes in some of the jars. If you have a rubber head, hand or brain put it in a jar with a little food coloring. Now complete the job by making labels to put on your jars.
mouse

RUBBER MOUSE:

Place a rubber mouse on the floor, where it is out of the way but still seen. Place in a real mouse trap if you have one.
cobweb

COBWEB:

Place lots of cobweb on the stairs, doorways, windows, and photos. It looks best in corners stretching out to furniture. The more you use the better the look. A nice inexpensive decoration Please use safety precautions when placing cobwebs around any flames or electrical devices.
skeleton

SKELETONS:

Have some plastic skeletons around. Have one hanging from the ceiling or place one in a corner sitting or lying down. The more the scarier.

electric chair The electric chair was made with plywood and some old 2 x 4's. The head piece was made from an old metal bowl and some electrical conduit. Old belts were used to make the straps. This takes a while to make but can be used year after year once it's made. You could put a homemade dummy in it for effect.
