Dang....that would be awesome.
I'm probably pulling out my illuminated Skull Mask again.
It's the night I use to promote my studio, I call it "Something Sounds Creepy"
I dress up and play my bass in my livingroom window with a PA outside...I pre-record horror-like tracks that I solo to. And my decorations are total overkill. I have a soundtech and an effects/lighting guy hired too. Plus there are other audio systems set up eg: (at the door) creaking doors, chains audio loop....(at my pumpkins display) lost souls, moaning etc loop. I have lasers, intelebeams, fog, dry ice, hazer, strobes, video screen etc...it's actually quite the production every year, people now look forward to it.
Last year I had over 500 trick or treaters show up....and I give out piles of candy to each one. I basically blow my entire annual ad budget in one night, and it has proven extremely effective for me. Some kids hang out and watch for 15-20 mins.
This year it's a friday, so I have a huge party planned for after the kids are done.
