Well if not hell maybe just from that creepy dark crawl space in your house. You know the one..Anyway most scarecrows are smiling buffoons who can barely scare away crows much less people but not this guy. Here is a quick list of what you will need straight from our new friend over at Spooky Blue:
Grape vines
Large plastic cauldron
Newspaper, paper towels, duct tape, some scratchy rope, an 8' 1x2 (or some sturdy post), and latex carpet adhesive
An old lamp, and lots of black or gray cloth.
Also don't forget our huge MAKE Halloween Contest!
