Ok, so here's the scoop. I've been a halloween nut for as long as I can remember....but since I went into the Marines right after high school and moved around alot I've never really had a house of my own to really throw a good Halloween Bash!
Well my wife and I bought our first home last December now that I am out of the Marines and settled down. Anyway, this year I really want to throw a really memerable Halloween party. So far we have like 25 or more of our good friends comming out and I really want to make it awesome. I've got the yard haunted out but Im having alot of trouble with the inside of the house. Ive got some things up but Im not really blown away. I've got the living room about a 24'x20' with black lighting and glowing spiderwebs, and some things ont the walls. In the kitchen/dining area I've got red light bulbs, cool black lace on the fireplace mantle, and orange and purple strings lights on the buffet. I plan to have the big punch bowl on the island with dry ice and to top it off I built a good fog chiller this past weekend to keep the place packed with good low lying fog.
Is there anything else I can do to make it better. I want more lighting without using regular bulbs in the living room. The black lighting just isnt' enough. Am I just trying to hard?? LOL I know it's silly but I just really want people to be talking next August and say "Man I hope Jason throws another Halloween party, last year was awesome!!" LOL
OK..poke fun....but any ideas would be helpful.
