Our entry hallway is long and the first thing our guests see, so we always try to go all out! Last year we created the Red Room from Twin Peaks.

This year it took a little trial and error but we finally settled on a haunted house vibe and created a giant creepy light up skeleton to greet our guests when they first walk in!

We spent most of our time creating our skeleton ghost inspired by an old Halloween Martha Stewart video. We wanted the skeleton to be the main focal point so we kept the rest of hallway minimal. We hung pieces of ripped black fabric and some light up lanterns.

Building the skeleton was time consuming but fun to create and only need a handful of materials!
