Â
Seven glowing pumpkins in one blow-up — plug it in, stake it down, and the whole yard looks done in five minutes.

My favorite jump scare — the zombie crawls out of the lawn with glowing eyes and gets a scream out of every group of teens.

Huge stretchy spider web I drape across the bushes and porch railing — it covers way more than the little bags of cobweb ever did.

My witch's cauldron candy bowl for the front door — sturdy, the right size for a big bag of candy, and it doubles as a decoration.

The bulk candy I fill the cauldron with — Reese's, Kit Kats, and Hershey's bars are the trades every kid wants.

Â
Mehron Clown White is my base for any skeleton, ghost, or zombie look — fully opaque and it actually stays put all night.
