First - I am really pumped about finding this forum - it looks like a great one for the home haunter.
We (family) are from southwesten Illinois and are doing our first front yard haunt this year.
Two years ago we organized a haunted trail in the field behind our house and folks want it to come back. The field is too overgrown this year - so I challenged the neighbors to come up with their own activity for Halloween - meaning - each house will do something if they wish to - over and above the usual just handing out candy.
I have asked just 4 houses and from that have two cemeterys, a haunted garage, and a game table (which they will think up).
We will have a cemetery set against a porch "castle".
I have scoured the web for ideas (+ my own) and am really excited about it. I've been wanting to do this for a few years - now it's time to put the plan into action. It doesn't surprise me the number of sites online exchanging ideas and offering how-to's - seem to me to be holiday spirit - pun intended!
I think that's it.
