Halloween must have!!

I'm a die hard Halloween nut and I love crafts. This book is so clear and easy to follow with big clear pictures. This book will make you LOVE Halloween. Grover gives all different ideas for every aspect of spooking you home. The matrials aren't expensive, most you probably have in your own home. With the ideas that she gives, you find yourself saying "Oh, and I can do this and do that..." and you end up going above and beyond. It really inspires the Halloween haunter in you.

Halloween Front Porch decorating book of the century!

This book will not help you create a Haunted House that people will pay 10 bucks or more to get into so they can wet their pants from fright. But it will help you create the most amazing Trick-Or-Treat front porch for miles, as well as a festive interior of your house for your anual Halloween Party.If that's what you want, BUY THIS BOOK NOW.I throw a Haunted Costume Party every year, and I was overwhelmed by the wealth of ideas in this book. Halloween is still almost 4 months away and I'm already anxiously plotting for the big event. I was captivated from page one with the amazing and inspiring photographs. Creepy witches hats, brooms, and shoes on your front porch, masked illuminating pumpkins, bats and spiders, an old wooden chair with the Invisible man, and a lighted skeleton head made from a milk carton.......genius creativity at it's best here.There were awesome ideas on how to set your table for a spooky feast starting with the invitations, place settings and name cards, decorated and dripping candles, bat folded napkins, and a feeew ideas of what to eat...Frankenstein Cake Cones, Dracula Bow Tie Pasta and Sauce, Creamy Chicken Baked in a Pumpkin, and Candy Corn Chowder..don't worry, it has no candy in it. (she had good ideas here, but I always serve black bean soup in a big cauldron...I'll be happy to give you the recipe, it's a big hit).Great ideas for a younger crowd of party-goers too. Everything was made with readily available materials and easy to follow instructions and pictures. Buy lots of black spray paint, it can turn anything into a useful Halloween prop.A very impressive home Halloween decorating book, I'll be referring to it for years to come.
