Directions
- Board up your windows to give the house a haunted appearance. This step is optional and can be done with materials like cardboard or wood.
- Carefully stretch spider webbing across the outside of your home, making sure it looks thin and realistic for a spooky vibe.
- Place spiders on columns, porch posts, or other prominent spots around the exterior.
- Set up ghosts or grim reapers in the yard; black grim reapers work best because they contrast nicely with the white webbing.
- Scatter tombstones across the lawn to complete the haunted house look.
