Ask your daughter for her input. Let her help you with coming up with the games. This will gage her level of scary and you can go from there.

Hmmmm, you've actually just inspired me to do something similar, so tell your kids thank you! 
I would say build the mayor and Boogie, and then dress up skellies to look like the ones in the movie. I would definitely consider doing your own scene setter style backdrops for inside the house, and then with some creative lighting that matches the feel of the movie your yard haunt would look awesome!

The Mayor has a swivel head don't forget...it would be cool to make him with a motor hooked up to IR that spins it to the Evel side! Hmmmmm, now can someone please tell me how the best way to do that will be? LOL I guess we can be Haunt Buddies since I am completely sold on it this year.
My daughter is 5 this year and she usually does her trick or treating with my Mom because her neighborhood is really kid friendly. However, I seem to have given my child my affliction....she's already asking about the Halloween haunt! So, I can't do my norm or else she will never sleep again since she wants to help out this year. She loves TNBC as much as I do so it seems like a good compromise.

I did a carnival outside last year. We did a bean bag toss and i painted a clown head on it. You could do jacks face or oogie boogie. Everybody seemed to have fun with it.

Okay, tee-hee, I just informed my husband of what he will be helping me with this year! He likes it and came up with a neat idea for Jack. Instead of making him since we're short on time/money too...he suggested creating the cover scene (Jack standing on the hill during his big song in front of the moon) as a cut-out and painted plastic background on our garage door or front wall...
What do you think?
