Jack-o'-Lantern Invitations
Blow up orange balloons, draw faces with a black felt pen, roll up the invitation on small black or orange paper and insert into the balloon, along with orange and black confetti, plastic bugs and candy. Deflate the balloon, then the guest inflates it to see the face and pops the balloon to get the invitation.

Garbage-Bag Ghosts
Cut a hole in the top of a white plastic garbage bag. Thread black yarn or fishing wire through the hole and tie a knot. Insert a balloon under the bag, tie with yarn and draw a face with black felt pen on the garbage bag to resemble a ghost.

Spider Cupcakes
Bake or buy chocolate cupcakes, remove papers and cover with whipped topping. Bend four pieces of black licorice in half, insert two on each side of the cupcake to make spider legs and use small cinnamon candies to make glowing eyes.

Candy Apple Ghosts
Place a black plastic fork into an apple, dip in some melted white chocolate, place on waxed paper and make the facial features with black licorice. Place in a plate of candy corn to top off this fun treat.

Lighted Jack-o'-Lantern
Hollow out a pumpkin. Bore small holes throughout the surface and one hole in the bottom and place a string of Christmas lights inside the gourd. The cord will go through the hole on the bottom. Poke the light bulbs out through the holes in the pumpkin. These pumpkin luminaries look great close to walls or ceilings because of the unique light patterns they create.

Halloween Face Paint
Here's a simple, nontoxic concoction straight from the pantry: Mix together 1 teaspoon cornstarch, 1/2 teaspoon water, 1/2 teaspoon cold cream and 2 drops food coloring. Apply to face.

Spider Web Soup
Ingredients/Materials:
canned or homemade tomato soup
1/2 cup sour cream
1 Tbs. milk
green food coloring
plastic sandwich bag
toothpick
Steps:
Start with canned or homemade tomato soup. Place soup into bowls and make a mixture the sour cream, milk and enough green food coloring to turn the mix a pale green.
Pour the mixture into a plastic sandwich or freezer bag. Cut a very small piece out of one of the corners of the bag, and starting from the side of the bowl, swirl the sour-cream mixture inward to the center of the bowl, creating a spiral.
Using a toothpick and starting in the center of the bowl, move straight to the edge of the bowl, and repeat several times to create a spider-web design.

Blood
Mix Karo syrup and red food coloring together to desired consistency and you have instant blood


Bottle Ghosts
Materials:
foil
pop bottle
water
sugar
cheesecloth
tape
Steps:
Roll up a piece of foil into a ball and place on top of a pop bottle. Make foil "arms" and tape to the sides of the bottle.This is only a frame for the ghost, it's not supposed to look good. Boil 1/2 cup of water and one cup of sugar.
Drop a piece of cheesecloth in the solution and then drape it over the pop bottle . Let this dry and then remove from the bottle. Place several of these ghosts inside or on a buffet table or hang outside for decorations.
