What are the best things to use dry ice for in a halloween display? I have heard of creating fog and fog coming out of jack-o-lanterns, but what else has everyone come up with?

Check your welcome thread. Lunatic had some helpful comments.

Are you looking for ideas to put on your website?

Thanks for pointing that out... i didn't even notice that they responded that much to my welcome message.

Yes, I am looking to put some fun ideas on my website. Do have any good ones?

Hey Tucker,
Just noticed your post. I used dry ice for a few years in my yard haunt-in the coffin and behind tombstones and in the witch's cauldron. I am sure you know this already but do not handle that stuff with bare hands. I did it for just a second thinking no big deal right?:eek: Wrong,that stuff will burn your skin off in a short time,I had a pretty bad burn for just touching it for a few seconds. Invest in some good gloves or tongs!

TuckerZ, if you do a "Search" for dry ice you will find other threads with info.

Anything! I love it, but it's hard to handle... it's certainly much better than fog, but different application I guess.

When storing it try to keep it in the smallest insulated container possible. having it inside a brown paper bag folded up tight and then in container helps it to store longer. keep it in the insulated container in the freezer.
Lastly Pre-order if needed and pick it up as late as possible!

There are a lot of fun effects you can do with dry ice. My favorite is using a small chip in the bottom of beverages (for adults only). let the dry ice fully sublimate before serving and you have a cold foggy beverage.
