Haunted House in Your Garage Halloween Party!

This Halloween you should think of doing something off the wall. Don't just have a regular Halloween Party with the costumes and refreshments. Why not have a Haunted House in your garage? It is really easy to do and not that expensive. Oh, I guess you can spend alot of money,there is nothing wrong with that, if you have it to spend, and want to. You could really get elaborate with the robotic, radio controlled and mechanical haunts or you can have just as much fun without the expense by using friends and homemade items for simple haunts that create a big scare.

Start with a clean garage. Make a sketch of what you would like to have in it, like a cemetery, etc. Use this sketch to make a list of things you will need. One of the things you will need is black plastic. This can be purchased at Lowe's. It works great to make temporary walls or a maze. Finish making this list, then buy or make what you will need.

You will also need a few friends to volunteer to work/play in the haunted garage. This is usually not a problem, because they will have alot of fun doing this.

Once you have bought or made the haunts, figure out where you are going to place them in the haunted garage. Then tell the friends or let them choose the haunt or scare they will be doing and have them "dress the part" for the haunt or scare. Let them use their imagination on how they will scare the people coming through the garage.

A couple of nights before the "Haunted Garage Party" you will need to put up the walls or maze for the haunted garage. Set up the haunts that need to be constructed. Add lighting such as black lights, and strobe lights. Blue lights work well in cemetery scenes. Scary sound tracks are also good to use.

And that is all there is to making a Haunted Garage. A great and different Halloween Party that will be talked about for along time. It may even start a tradition. Someone different could do a Haunted Garage the next year. That way everyone can have a turn and see how creative they can be.

By the way, you can still have refreshments after everyone has gone through the Haunted Garage. I have made a Haunted House in my 2 car garage for a Halloween Party and everyone had so much fun.
