Chilly nights and shorter days mean it is almost Halloween and time for the Halloween outdoor decorations. This page will help you create some awesome outdoor decorations, give you links to the best places to find them, and a few coupons thrown in to help you make this the scariest Halloween ever. This page will focus on the graveyard-themed decorations. A combination of home-made and store bought decorations can create a perfectly thrilling look.

Martha Stewart, Better Homes and Garden, and the Spirit Halloween Store has many ghoulish items to add to your setting. Don't forget the soundtrack. Creepy atmospheric music can be found at Party City.

Some people know October 31 as All Hallows' Eve, or the pagan New Year, known as Sanhain. But for many children and adults alike it is a chance to dress and be creative—and, most of all, scary. Trick or Treaters love when they arrive at a home that has pulled out all the creepy stops.

• Cemeteries are just plain scary. Your front yard can be turned into a perfect graveyard by using styrofoam blocks to make tombstones, onto which you can carve eerie pictures and witty sayings. Paint the styrofoam gray and black and placed in any configuration you wish in your front yard.

Bats from cloth with flashing eyes in trees will bring the whole creepy graveyard feeling. Do not forget the bones and the skulls. Where can you get these? Better Homes and Gardens online has some great products.http://www.bhg.com/holidays/halloween/outdoor-decorations/halloween-outdoor-makeover/

• Martha Stewart will show you how to make lighted ghosts to float right over your tombstones.http://www.marthastewart.com/how-to/graveyard-ghost?backto=true&backtourl=/photogallery/outdoor-decorations-for-halloween#slide_1

• Better homes and Gardens also known as BHG.com will show you how to decorate with bones and hand made coffins.

• The perfect setting needs the perfect creatures walking beside the Trick or Treaters, so make sure you put on a costume to match your outdoor decorations. One suggestion from Martha Stewart is a mommy and baby, spider and web costume—this can easily be made at home with black, men's socks and some yarn.http://www.marthastewart.com/how-to/spider-web-mother-and-sock-spider-baby-costume?

• So enjoy Halloween and make some amazing Halloween outdoor decorations and bring them out year after year.
