I came across some nifty instructions for making those creepy Blair Witch stick figures to hang from trees (or gutters in my case). Here's a link in case someone else was thinking of the same thing:

that is awesome! i wonder how many people left would even realize what they are if i were to hang some at my place!

Cool idea, Haunty.
I've made a new Witch prop for this year, and a couple of these hanging from the tree behind her will be a good addition to the setting.
Thanks for the idea!

looks nlike a simple creepy prop idea. I am not sure kids today will get the Blair Witch conection.

I used these in my haunted trail last year. I don't know how many kids new what it was, but it sure was freaky looking.

That's pretty cool. Thanks for the link Haunty.

Haunty - Thanks for the link. I wanted to make some to hang around my voodoo hut...(OK, it's really my craft shed )
But for Halloween its a voodoo hut. I had just randomly tied sticks together, but I think the addititon of the cloth makes it scarier.
P.S. Blair Witch scares me too, especially the last scene...

I was hiking off-trail in the woods last autumn and came across a few someone had randomly strung up...it was quite spooky (the weird quietness of the forest accentuated this) and my friend and I didn't hang around, even though we had previously done the same thing at an old camp site one summer, lol! Good times.

I did that one year, except I used twine and did not use cloth. I think they looked pretty creepy. That was the year after the movie came out though, I'm not sure how many people would get what they were now.
