creepy haunted maze ideas for Halloween?
me and a bunch of friends have acess o a tree maze for halloween this year and we want to make it into a very scary haunted maze... but also be able to tone it down for the little kids that may come... but mostly are focusing on the scary factor.
we have several good ideas so far but need more because the maze is really big... here is what we have so far
it's going to start with our tour guide (who is dressed in goofy halloween atire as to make it look goofy and not scary.. like them ghost or pumpkin anlter headbands and such) start taking the group through the tour... however we will have a monster pull her into the bushes as she walks by leaving them to fens for themselves for the rest of it.
we will have them walk past a skeliton thing that's holding a lantern that's motion sensored and will tell them to run back while they still can and sayings like that...
then they will walk by a graveyard scene that will have hands sticking up from the ground and a monster of some sort slowly walking through the graveyard... and there will be a devil at the back of the graveyard (either in cstume or it will be a devil on a stake)
then there will be a monster in an electric chair that is powered by an air compressor that shakes like it's being electricuted with a stobe light under it...
then they will pass through potato sacks that are all red and "bloody" at the bottom with hands and feet hanging out... these are hanging from the trees... there will be a bag or 2 with an actual person moving in it to seem as though it isnt dead yet... and we will have a butcher either follow them through or they will meet it at the end... again havent decided on that yet...
then they will walk past frenkensteins lab with the mad scientist frankie and on the oppisite side will be a caged monster
then they will pass dracula's den... with a coffin where a dracula skeliton will pop out of the coffin when they walk by... there is a bunch of creepy bats and a guy in a dracula costume... (the poping guy is air compressor run and motion sensored)
after that they will pass the witched we have 2 witched one will be stirring a cauldrin with the dry ice.. the other we are not sure about yet (any ideas for this?) and we have a skeliton in a cage we are going to hang with them and possibly a fog michene nearby
also sometime throughout this a creepy guy in a costume (possibly the really really really creepy half dead clown guy) will start following the group at a distance and near the end of the maze it will "chase them out" but of course never leave the maze so others just entering wont see it...
we have 2 fog michenes and are not sure where to put them we are thinking the witches and the cemetery... however sometime between the butcher and the start we have an air horn that is motion sensored but need to add it in somewhere (must be there cuz it's as long as the corsd can reach) adn oncce we get to the witches we still have like 1/4 the of the maze left to do SOMETHING but dont know what else there is... ghosts or spiders or something else that is really creepy... we have like 40 masks and there is a total of 16-17 people to help run this...
any ideas for the last 1/4 of the maze? or anything to improve our other ideas?

Make several dummies with old clothes stuffed with paper. Put a pitch fork through one, a chain saw by a seperated leg, a hammer or hatchet in a pumpkinhead.
Put a stuffed dummy on a rope and when a person trips the guide line it fall out of the tree.
Make Snakes from garden hoses.
Use Motion black lights
Put bubble wrap underfoot.
Use Lots of Kechup and gooie(HONEY) costumed friends.
Put a witch on a broom with taped noise.
Have a Place to wash hands! Use a black box with several holes put jello in one spagetti in another and olives(eyeballs) ect….
