Tips and Tricks

Small improvements can make all the difference, here are some of my favorite tips

Lighting

Use indirect lighting from colored lights hidden behind things so there are creepy shadows cast and do not use bright lights
A creepy home should not be light like it is Christmas with strung lights to brightly illuminate the way
LED Blacklight colored lights also add a glow to glow in the dark decorations and fluorescent paints especially blue and black lights.
Blue LED and you will get a good creepy glow and lots more light.
Avoid regular colored bulbs since they do not produce the UV rays that is needed to make things glow.
Stores sell backlights that are not fluorescent or LED but they are ALL garbage at doing their job.

Better stringing of the Spider webs in a Bag - The spider webs in a bag come in a string like a loose rope.

Get a friend to have a tug of war first and stretch it as much as you can.
This causes the fibers to loosen from each other and spread wide easier.
Some webs are difficult to spread and will not spread wide until you stretch them first from the long ends.
