This is a fun arts and crafts project to use to scare Trick-or-Treaters when they get to your house. Hide behind a bush or something and pull the string to make a spooky, ghostly chains type of rattle every time a new visitor comes to your house. This can also be used to announce a new guest arrival to a Halloween party or to a Haunted House Party. Have fun.
How to Make a Scary Porch Decoration and Noise Maker for Halloween
CRAFTS MATERIALS THAT YOU WILL NEED:
– At least 3 large tin cans with removable lids
– Something to Punch a Hole in Cans (Parental Supervision and Guidance Recommended)
– Rope or Cord – about 5 inches in length
– Pebbles
– Glue or Tape
– (optional) Paint or Tin Foil
Step 1
Obtain at least 3 large tin cans each having a removable lid. Punch a hole in the center of the bottom of each and in the center of each lid with parental supervision. These holes should be large enough to permit the passage of a rope through them.
Step 2
Grab a rope or cord. The rope should be of clothesline thickness and about 5 feet in length. String the cans and their lids on the rope one at a time.

Step 3
To hold each can in place tie a knot outside the bottom of each one.
Step 4
After the cans have been strung in place put a handful of small pebbles in each can and clamp the covers in place somehow…with glue or another way, such as tape.
Step 5
If you have time, decorate the cans by painting them or wrap tin foil around them.
Step 6
Hang the rattle on a porch beam. Each time a guest arrives, grasp the tail end of the rope and shake the can rattle to annouch his arrival to the other guests .
