Used bothe the one inch and two inch pvc so I had thicker and thinner candles of varying lengths.

I agree with you SavageHaunter, it's key. I like to use fog too. Cool! Have a good day....

"Nothing scary, just spine tingly creepy ombiance." That is exactly my cup of tea. I am not into gore or blood. I believe what really scares you is what is perceived by the mind-not the actual subject or act. (I.E. Jaws was effective because in the beginning of the movie alot of tension was built on fear of something you actually never saw). That's just my theory. My yard is like a jungle, lots of trees, palms, etc. So at Halloween it's easy to give the creepy ambience with lighting, a few props, and music/or sound. I have kids who swear they saw someone or something in my yard- but I do not have anyone in hiding- but I do have a boom box with carefully spaced sound effects (not one immediately after another). One of my older neighbors last year about jumped out of his skin, when all of the sudden my sound effect cd played a hoot owl- he thought it was real! Scared by that- an owl? Yes, I believe it can be simple things like that.

The picture of the woman is actually part of a "Vampire" photo series by photographer Erwin Olaf. For me, the other pics in the series were a little too creepy for me, but I liked this one because it is such far cry from the typical Vampire sterotype (black & gothic), so I posted it. As far as it being real blood (yuck!), maybe?-- I don't know, the pictures have been photoshoped quite a bit.
