   Get fog machines for added creepiness.
   
   You can cover your furniture with black sheets and sprinkle flour on them to make the room look old and dusty.

   Step 2: Prepare your sound effects.

   Put 1 or 2 CD players hidden behind the sheets, with creepy sound effect CDs in them—no one will know where the sound is coming from.

   Or you can mix it all up to be equally creepy. , Hallways are also useful because they're normally at the front of the house.
