The temperature is dropping, the leaves are changing and the smell of Fall is in the air. With Fall, comes one of the most exciting times of the year: Halloween!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trick or treating, scary costumes and apple-bobbing aren\u2019t the only things to look forward to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Halloween decorations are just as fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019re looking for some advice on spooking up your lake house a bit, look no further, we have some great ideas for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course, there are the classic Halloween decorations like cobwebs and fake spiders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adding these too your house and dock (which may already have cobwebs on it) is a surefire way to spook up an area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Always use jack-o-lanterns, as these are super fun to make and are great decorations. Place them on your front or back porch and dock for all to see and fear!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Scarecrows are also a frightful sight, especially this time of the year! Stick a scarecrow in your yard, and it will be sure to turn some heads!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some other spooky ideas include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bone Door Knocker<\/strong> – What better way to spook your neighborhood ghouls and goblins by having a super scary door knocker? For this decorative setup, you\u2019ll need some fake bones and a door to place them on. Knock Knock! Trick or treat!?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Witch\u2019s Cauldron<\/strong> – A great idea is having a witch\u2019s cauldron in your front yard! Buy a large plastic black cauldron, set up three long sticks to suspend it from, add water and dry ice and you\u2019ve got yourself one spooky decoration!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Or, if you would like to impress the neighbors across the pond, use this same setup on the lakeside of your home, and add a couple of spotlights to highlight your setup!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gothic Wreath<\/strong> – Make a black wreath with sticks jutting out every which way, and place a fake crow in the mix to add a spooky atmosphere to your door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Spooky Face in the Mirror<\/strong> – Remove most of the paint from a mirror and stick an old portrait photo behind it. Paint the mirror frame black, and you have yourself one spooky mirror!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Graveyard Tombstones<\/strong> – Use cardboard and spray paint to create ghostly tombstones and stick them in your front yard, or near your dock, and put them on display with spotlights!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Window Silhouettes<\/strong> – Use cardboard and a sharpie to outline the shape of a ghoulish character from one of your favorite horror movies! Cut it out, stand the silhouette in your window and let the shrieks begin!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Zombie Hands in Ground<\/strong> – This one is a classic and surely freaks everybody out. Buy a few fake severed hands, and bury them halfway so that they stick out of the ground. These can be purchased at any Halloween store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They can also be placed on your dock, as if the zombies are coming out of the water. Nothing is scarier on the lake than water ghouls!<\/p>\n\n\n\n But, your main focus on Halloween should always be to just have fun with it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The temperature is dropping, the leaves are changing and the smell of Fall is in the air.
