Ghost Lanterns
Get the most out of empty gallon milk jugs.
You just need to put battery-operated Christmas lights inside them to make them
glow. Using a permanent marker, you can draw scary faces before hanging them in
dark areas. You may also place them along the walkway.

Miniature Graveyard
Get some cardboards and cut them in oval or
rectangular shape. Paint them with gray and put “RIP” so that they will look
like tombstones. You may put haystack and dry leaves to add scary feel.

Bats and Ghosts
Bats: Get egg cartons,
cut them to make three shelves. Color them black and put eyes (made of white
and black cartolina). Hang them.
Ghosts: Collect dry
leaves—those with five wide “fingers.” Paint them white and draw a scary face
on them. Hang them.
