I guess you could make some kind of haunted library or big book of spells by using the boxes as books, maybe have some kind of wrapping on them and label the back of the book with various titles and authors. Stack them together and create large tombstones that you could spraypaint and letter......um, relabel them and use them in a food scene...instead of Kellogs, Kill Hogs, with some kinda dead pig pic, Count Chocula...'nuff said, instead of Honey Comb...Catacomb cereal.....no limits to what can be done, lol !!

Dang, I think you covered all the possibilities.
The cardboard is rigid enough, I sometimes take a cereal box and cut it up to be a wall sconce. You can make a ll sorts of shapes, and them paint with some fleck spray.
Love the book idea!!

Nice idea for tombstones using FedEx boxes... I'm sure it would work with minor mods for cereal boxes:

I was gonna say use them as books in a haunted bookshelf since they are so light. It'll be a snap to transform them as well.

Does this have anything to do with what I heard on the radio today...that the average person eats 12 pounds of cereal a year? Are you one of the average...LOL!
