I want to pay some kids to dress up as goblins and leap out at people from behind things in the yard.

Well in the windows, bats, spiders, spooky light things if you have or get, in the front yard, a cemetery , but make it more sinister and misterious, in the front not lots of lights , not Christmas after all, but a little light, make it look abandoned :D, some dead cats (not real cats)
Halloween is coming,be sure to be dead until then, if not all hallows eve will take care

Every Halloween people put cemeteries in there front yards. I do not want this house to be like that. But whatever. This thread does not revolve around me. I will do whatever I want to my cemetery. No one can change my cemetery! :evil: Keep em coming! :D

Works for me, you're the cemetary guy. But we need more members to help decorate.

Nos, I like your idea about the orange/black lights but i was thinking...instead of lining them across the house, how about getting those black/orange rope lights and twisting them around the stair banisters. This house has such beautful stairs and porch, I say accent that!

It has the classic smiling pumpkin face. At night it lights up by itself and in the day the light goes out by itself. I love this graveyard. It is so peaceful and Halloweenish. :D
Dig it (no pun...).

If you are quiet enough you can her the soft, whispery sounds of the departed telling stories to each other of happy days gone by; or is it just the leaves in the breeze?

In Paint Shop Pro (and probably other programs) there is a tool called Picture Tube.

It's preloaded with images some random, and you just click-hold and move your mouse around.

easy but effective.

The sky is a different story.

Andy, nice work. Can you replace the trees?

Replace them with dead bare trees. With a skeleton hanging from the right one. That would be so great! :D

Any way I tried it the noose looked bad so here is one with a tree.

And I don't know how much more editing this poor little picture can take.
