My wife is starting to want to decorate for Halloween but she’s more into making it cute instead of scary. Maybe I’ll show her what you did and we can meet in the middle.
I'm wanting to start a week before and have an open window shade with a skeleton doing different things every day. That is just one idea that's cheap and easy.
Why not a zombie manger scene? That way you can put it up for Halloween and leave it up for Christmas.
You are a sick man...
BUT ... we all knew that!
Put a chair in the corner of the porch by the door. Dress up like a old Farmer, etc. Sit in the chair and pretend you are a dummy. When the kids ring the doorbell and Ma brings the treats, jump up and scare the poop out of them. Lady peed on our porch last year!
Most fun I ever had for yard stuff was stuffing some of my work coveralls and making a headless man sitting in a chair with a pumpkin on his lap.
He sat out there for two weeks and all the kids were used to seeing him.
Halloween night I was the headless guy. I scared the crap out of alot of kids and adults with them all night.
Another Halloween
My wife and daughters turned me into a big space alien. They pulled my long hair up through a swim cap, sprayed it with glitter and hairspray and we mounted a small locator strobe flashing in the center of the glitter bush
I had torch goggles and a PAPR half face respirator and was wearing shoulder pads and coveralls and was overall spray painted dayglow green and glitter.
I won $250 and steak dinner for 2 first prize at a costume contest. But it took hours to get the paint and glitter off me and my hair

Whole lot easier, weather proof.......pull back the living room curtains, leave the lights up bright......
