For the last 2 months, I have been buying alot of Halloween decorations. I mean honestly, can your house be over decorated for halloween...no!

By the way, Big Lots is a gem and everything is now 30% off as of yesterday....

This is so funny! I was in Big Lots yesterday and thought to myself "who the hell buys all of this Halloween sh*t?" Now I know.

I have the same addiction!

Big Lots is the poo for Halloween deco. They have lots of scary stuff. Walgreens is good too, if you shop there closer to Halloween like the day before they will mark everything down to get it out. Big Lots is good to go to after Halloween for sales if you plan on doing this next year too. The dollar tree usually has those small gothic tombstones, they're pretty neat.

But IMO, if you want it to look good invest in some black lights, the real ones not the incandescent kind. You can have minimal decorations and it still look awesome with black lights & spiderwebs. Make sure you take the time to really spread out the spider webs, they will look so much better and if you can only find the spider rings make sure you cut the ring part off cause it looks stupid.

I made a party punch once and used cranberry juice to fill latex gloves(washed them first), freeze the filled gloves and use it to float in the punch. The funny thing was the fingers ended up falling off in such a way where it looked like it was giving you the finger.

At least your addiction is healthy. My addiction always leads to carpal tunnel in my wrist.

You can do the same thing with a cheap plastic mask just cover the eyes & nose holes with tape.

Tonic water http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonic_water will glow under a black light. Pretty cool effects when you put in fake snakes, spiders, body parts in old jars with the tonic water.

I was just at the store and saw some gummy body parts. I have a whole collection of body parts, they are made out of that sticky rubbery stuff that will stick to the wall when you throw it.

Use glow in the dark hairspray on mirrors, windows & other washable nonporous things.

Rig a big nasty fake spider on a fishing line over your door & connected to something from above like a light so when you open your door the spider will appear as if it's crawling back up to it's web.

Spiderwebs. Make sure you take the time to really spread out the spider webs, they will look so much better and if you can only find the spider rings make sure you cut the ring part off cause it looks stupid.

I have real spider webs! Anyone wants them are welcome to it.

(It's tough for me to reach up into corners from my "chair". I usually hire Merry Maids once a year to come in and clean up high.)

:drool5: yeow! That's probably why my left hand is so strong. (Also, I'm left handed.)

Oh, I thought you were going to admit to an addiction to Hot Sauce.

Pshh, don't use that as an excuse. I'm probably only a couple inches taller than you when I'm standing. I have a duster with a 20ft telescopic handle on it.
