Summary: Fun ideas that are simple and inexpensive
Review: Great ideas that can be used to add a little or a lot of halloween fun to this holiday. Some of these ideas are so good that you could adapt them to use for other holidays also.

Summary: boring and unimaginative
Review: I found their ideas to be very pedestrian. There's nothing new or interesting to be found in this book.

Summary: stay away from this author
Review: I have been working in the design field for over 10 years now and I have yet to see a worse ripp off then this author not only are there no directions to her projects, but who would want to engage them selves in anything that turned out so chic and cheesey. I have personally met the author and her family I knew them for quite a while infact and never did I find that she could creatively enhance a project. she has some small skill in putting together junk so it doesn't look so much like junk. butlets face it - it's still junk. not something I would put in my house nor in my clients homes.

Review: I'm a die hard Halloween nut and I love crafts. This book is so clear and easy to follow with big clear pictures. This book will make you LOVE Halloween. Grover gives all different ideas for every aspect of spooking you home. The matrials aren't expensive, most you probably have in your own home. With the ideas that she gives, you find yourself saying "Oh, and I can do this and do that..." and you end up going above and beyond. It really inspires the Halloween haunter in you.

Summary: A few cute ideas, NOT scary
Review: Not a bad book for the price. A close look at the cover reveals what most projects are like--cute for preschool children but not scary. Good color photos but annoying that they are not on the page oposite the directions.

Summary: not so scary
Review: This book is good if you need some inspiration. There are not a lot of SCARY crafts in this book. The candy wrapper buckets are a cute idea. I also liked the black pumpkins. Some of the crafts were lame. For instance, one was called "witch hat luminary" and its made of an orange traffic cone that you spray paint black and put a light under it. Where do you find a traffic cone without stealing one?
I would reccomend it if you are looking for cute ideas for a Halloween party but it is not good for a person wanting to create a hard core scary scene.

Summary: Halloween Front Porch decorating book of the century!
Review: This book will not help you create a Haunted House that people will pay 10 bucks or more to get into so they can wet their pants from fright. But it will help you create the most amazing Trick-Or-Treat front porch for miles, as well as a festive interior of your house for your anual Halloween Party.If that's what you want, BUY THIS BOOK NOW. I throw a Haunted Costume Party every year, and I was overwhelmed by the wealth of ideas in this book. Halloween is still almost 4 months away and I'm already anxiously plotting for the big event. I was captivated from page one with the amazing and inspiring photographs. Creepy witches hats, brooms, and shoes on your front porch, masked illuminating pumpkins, bats and spiders, an old wooden chair with the Invisible man, and a lighted skeleton head made from a milk carton.......genius creativity at it's best here. There were awesome ideas on how to set your table for a spooky feast starting with the invitations, place settings and name cards, decorated and dripping candles, bat folded napkins, and a feeew ideas of what to eat...Frankenstein Cake Cones, Dracula Bow Tie Pasta and Sauce, Creamy Chicken Baked in a Pumpkin, and Candy Corn Chowder..don't worry, it has no candy in it. (she had good ideas here, but I always serve black bean soup in a big cauldron...I'll be happy to give you the recipe, it's a big hit). Great ideas for a younger crowd of party-goers too. Everything was made with readily available materials and easy to follow instructions and pictures. Buy lots of black spray paint, it can turn anything into a useful Halloween prop. A very impressive home Halloween decorating book, I'll be referring to it for years to come.

Review: This ghoulrific new Halloween decorating book is a must have for any Halloweenite! It's filled with creative new ideas with easy to follow directions that don't require an entire craft store to complete. Photos, especially of "Frightful Feast" & "Goblin Gathering," are inspiring!
