Halloween Party Under Construction!

It has begun!
Ghosts and Goblins, Skeletons, Flying Bats, Cemetery Stones....all things Creepy and Crawly!
I started just the other day preparing for our annual Halloween Party! I just didn't know where to begin...inside or outside! I figures if I don't get started now it will be too late and I'll go CRAZY! So I decided OUTSIDE!
This is the second day of decorating....no, I don't decorate all day! But it is quite surprising just how long it takes to do so little! Today I got several items in place. I piriot creepy out from behind a tree. This is in place where the guests first enter. A sign will be seen from here pointing to 'Blood Cafe' Where all the goodies are up on the deck...yummy. Bats fly from the rooftop hanging from dead tree branches...watch out don't let them get in your hair! I can't wait to get the tables up and decorated! But that has to wait till the day of the party!
I need to get about 7 bales of straw for sitting on the deck.....no nice comfy lawn chairs this year! Gwaaaaarrrrakle!
I put clear fishing strings hanging across the Swamps Cemetery path. This (I hope) will give the effect of walking through spider webs! I hate spider webs on my face!

Next I have to figure out where the huge Ghoul goes....someplace different from last year! I like to put him in a spot where I can put a strobe light on him.....ohhhh scary! I'm going to try to get a skeleton floating in the pond this year! I think I'll just place him on the pond netting...... now I wonder just how I am going to get him in the middle of a 15x15 pond without getting wet?

Until next update....Happy Haunting
And yes I'll get pictures!
