I need cool effects and decorations and stuff. Not costume ideas or activities. I dont have much of a budget at all, I spent a ton of money already on this party, but even if you do say something that is expensive, i might have the supplies to pull it off. So any homemade decorations and effects that are cool. Plus, this party will be indoors. Just keep that in mind. PS no fire please.

Well, there's the old puking pumpkin, doesn't get much cheaper than that. A picture explains it instantly:

And the hand-shaped ice if you have a punch bowl, created with the use of a powder-free latex glove, filled with water and frozen, then just snip the glove off and put it into red punch. Depends on whether you're thinking of a gory sort of display with guts and ooze, or just faintly creepy, like having a wreath of all black plants and some cobwebs. I mean, I've been planning a party, but the age range (2-9) is such that even the black wreath would be overboard.

If you do have a couple more bucks to spend, places like Big Lots have some pretty cheap components that can be used with whatever you have already.

And I found this site, gallery at the top and much more info below.

It at least might give you a starting place for some ideas.
