Enjoy the season and any reason to craft with what is handy and around you. For example, one post-apocalyptic graveyard themed Halloween party I had, I had old wooden lattices for the garden that were falling apart. I took them apart and pounded them into creosses, painted them with fluorescent paint, stuck them in the ground and shined a black light on them.
Remember, too, one simple bag of rubber cockroaches can really create a strong effect in a bathroom or kitchen.
