The black magic section might be something to consider. Hope it helps.

usually i have several things in a haunted maze thing...the sections in this maze has a cemetary, butchary, graveyard,and a witch's kitchen, also i had the idea of making a demonic baby center....were i was going to buy several evil baby dollsand put them int bloody cradles and things like that...so you could use these in one of your party's.

Hey Hallow's Queen, Your haunt sounds like it must be awesome. What do you do for your Witches Kitchen, what kinds of decorations, do you have pictures from past years? Your baby concept sounds wicked. I've seen those demoic baby dolls at Spencers in case you were wondering where you can get the really wicked ones.

I noticed those pictures were gone too.....sad. DOD where are you going to be putting the witch's lair and bat cave? Is this going to be some rooms in your home?

Hey Mandy0221, Well, The Bat Cave will be outside right by the Cemetry, and the Witches Liar, well that's what I'm thinking of doing my kitchen in year round, and if I get bored of it I could go back to my Old World Paris theme, you know, switch back and forth. I'd love to do a Witches Liar outside as well, but I only have a small front area to work with.

wow sounds amazing. I wish I could say I had some really fantastic ideas but work is draining me of any creative juices I might have. I am going to think about it though.

For now - do you have an awning over your door? if so gold you attach some spooky cloth to the overhang and drape across to a tree or an awning. This could give the appearence of a roof or a "cave".

Yes I do have a small cover over my front entryway, but I need to be careful what I attach anything with as the freakin strata here are aweful, but I will do something like that.

I am not sure how common or easy to get spooky cloth it is there for you. Here it is at walgreens, walmart, etc etc

It is so light weight you can easily drape it to things and since it is like cheesecloth you only need it to snag a piece of wood or a small nail to stay put.

Hey Mandy0221, Yes both Michael's here and Wal-mart carry it, in fact I posted some that I bought when I did my first buy of the season at Michael's. I go for the black, not the greenish colour, ya that stuff is cool
