Props are important, but it's the characters that can truly make a haunted house feel terrifying. There are a number of ways that your friends can step out and scare your guests. Here are a few things they can do: After a bout of silence, a spooky ghost can jump out and scare your guests. Try having the ghost pop out of a closet. Have a volunteer grip guests' shoulders. Have them do this slowly so the guest thinks it's just another guest at first. Bring your guests in a dark room. Have your volunteer turn on a flashlight under his face and laugh maniacally. Have one of your volunteers get in line behind a pack of guests, and wait for them to slowly realize that he is there. Have one of your guests dress up like a famous horror film character, such as Jason, or Freddy. Gore is often overdone, but it can be effective if used properly. For example, place a "victim" who is playing dead next to a pool of blood. Or, cover a "victim" with makeup that makes them look as if they have a horrible infection. You can also put a bloody brain out on a table or near a "victim." If you want your haunted house to be a bit less terrifying and more fun for your guests, especially younger ones, you can arrange to have a different spooky activity in different rooms. Some activities to try are: Have a tub of cold water with fake snakes slithering in them. Place some coins on the bottom. Tell your guests they can't move on until they reach down and find a coin. Instead of bobbing for apples, carve apples to look like skulls and play bobbing for skulls! Peel the skin off a bunch of grapes and put them in a bowl. Cover the bowl and tell your guests to put their hands inside and tell you what they feel. Correct answer: eyeballs! Have your guests open a room where there is nothing but a full length mirror covered in cobwebs. Give them a few seconds to stare at the mirror. Then, have a goblin or ghost jump out at them from behind them or the mirror. Jump scares are very effective when it comes to getting people to scream during a haunted house visit. Have a room with a closed coffin in the center. Have a few activities or surprises to keep the guests busy in the room. Then, right before they leave the room, have a "skeleton" jump out of the casket. You can also have characters jump out during certain sections of the house as the visitors walk through. If your guests will be older, have an "actor" chase them with a chainsaw that no longer has a chain. Your guests will get used to them as they walk through. Have your friends blend in with the dummies and then jump out at your guests when they least expect it. This will work especially well at the entrance or exit of the house. You can make a dummy by stuffing clothes with newspaper, and putting a mask over a balloon.

summary: Scare your guests with your volunteers. Add some gore. Have spooky activities for your guests. Try the mirror trick. Play up the jump scares. Set up a few fake dummies throughout the haunted house.

Regularly tilling the soil will improve aeration and will prevent water from pooling on the top of your lawn. Dig into the ground 35 inches (7.612.7cm) with a till, pitchfork, or shovel and turn the soil over. Go up and down the area and turn over all of the soil in the yard. Once the soil has been turned over, you can level it out with a till or rake. Even if you want to keep the soil moist, you don't want it to pool on the surface of the soil because it's bad for plants and your lawn. Soils with a high clay or sand content tend to pack down faster than balanced soils. out of the soil. Weeds will soak up the moisture in the soil and will compete with the plants you want to grow. Dig around the weed with a gardening spade to loosen the soil surrounding it. Then pull the weed out of the ground, making sure to remove the entire root system. Continue to remove weeds whenever you notice them. Water absorbent mats, also called capillary mats, are made of an absorbent material like wool and will retain water. You can purchase one of these mats at a gardening store or online. Place the mat in the bottom of the pot, then place your soil and plant over the mat. When you water your plant, the mat will absorb the water and keep the soil moist. If you are in a hot area and water evaporates quickly, move them under the shade of a tree or ledge to boost moisture retention. If you notice that your leaves or flowers are drying out or dying, it could mean that they are getting too much sun.

summary: Till your soil. Pull weeds Install water absorbent mats under potted plants. Move potted plants under shade to prevent evaporation.
