Halloween party decorations for the table are a good starting point for Halloween decorating ideas, but your Halloween party decor can extend on to much more dramatic ideas with a far greater impact.

Hanging Halloween themed balloons and pinatas and similar accessories around the room is a popular first step to decorating a Halloween party venue. There are many props, small and large, you can buy to add to the decor - from spiders and spider webs through to giant mummies and inflatable Halloween props.

A great tip is to simply hang a few harmless threads from your ceiling, which invariably produce a few surprised shrieks from your guests when they unexpectedly feel them in their face in a darkened room.

A clever and relatively low cost way to transform your party room is to use wall hangings that come in rolls to create a totally different visual impact in the room. Nightmare on Elm Street, graveyard scenes and ghostly images are among the options you can consider. Cloth covers for furniture can turn your sofa into an open coffin, and you can turn your door into the entry to a Gothic Castle with images on a paper roll. In no time your home can be transformed into another world!

Lighting is an important way to create a scary mood for your Halloween party. Just dimming the lights and using candles is a good start, and there are a variety of Halloween themed lamps that you can obtain from pumpkins through to skulls. Adding a strobe light, or a black light that make certain colors glow in the dark, adds yet another dimension to your party atmosphere.

Fog and bubble generators are a popular way to recreate the images we often associate with horror movies and graveyard scenes, and it is so easy to obtain and set these up for a reasonable price these days. You can set them up to hide the machines by creating Halloween displays that seep out the eerie fog into the room, like an evil looking toxic waste drum. They take your Halloween party decor to a much more unique and memorable level.

You might like to look at what your guests will see outside as they arrive at your party. Some bales of hay and pumpkins is the traditional Halloween party doorway decoration, and it still works very well, especially if you carve a few pumpkins into Jack-o'-Lanterns to light up the path to your door. A scarecrow or some other ghoulish figure is a popular addition. You can go a step further and install a graveyard in your front lawn, with tombstones, escaping zombies and other such outdoor Halloween yard decorations now readily available.

A background of Halloween music and sound effects mustn't be overlooked at your Halloween party. Whatever is the current dance craze where you live is fine, but at some stage every self respecting Halloween party just has to groove for a while to the Monster Mash.

If your television stays in the party room, or you want to entertain the folk who are not dancing, why not play some Halloween DVDs?
