With
Halloween right around the corner Hudson Valley Overhead Doors and Operator
thought it would be fun to provide you with some simple steps you can take to
convert your dreadful garage into a haunted house of horror for all the little
ones that will be passing by your home this Halloween.
Clean up:
Before
going all in and purchasing all your horror gear, clean up your garage. Try to make the most room possible. If you have another location where you can
hold your garage items great!, If not try pushing your equipment as close to
the wall as possible. Any items that you
have hanging from the walls can be left in place.
Make a Plan:
Winging it
will not work when creating a haunted house.
Your best option is to make a simple map showing where you will be
directing your little visitors. By
making a game plan you can use your garage space to the maximum. If you have a small garage try creating a
simple curved walkway, if you have a larger garage you can actually create separate
rooms with different themes. Either way
with enough spooky items you’ll ensure that the kids will have a great time.
Go and purchase some goods:
If you go
to your local Halloween store you will be able to find just about everything
you need. Anything from props to
costumes can be found here. So don’t
hold back and go nuts purchasing the spookiest items available.
You’re going to have to hit the hardware store:
It’s not
all just props and candy. You will have
to purchase some simple items to properly set up your haunted house. Walls can be made using simple black heavy
duty plastic bags which you will be hanging from thick string and hooks that
hang to your wall. While you’re at it
you might consider purchasing some plywood and paint to make a mini crib or a
coffin.
Music:
Don’t
forget to hit all sensors. Part of the
scare is to have a kick ass soundtrack with scary moans and Halloween music. Buy a few cheap speakers and put that CD on a
loop and you should be all set.
