Halloween party lighting really improves the creepy look of your Halloween themed party. Using colors you can set different moods in your haunted house. The best method of coloring light is to go to the nearest Theatrical Lighting Supply store (check the phone book) and purchase sheets of gel. Gel is similar to cellophane. It is a transparent sheet of thin plastic that is colored one of many, many colors. A 24x36 sheet will run about $6.00. The gel can then be cut and placed in front of the lighting instrument to produce all sorts of colors. You can even tape several different colors of gel together to place in front of one light. Experiment and you will soon see what a difference color can make. Another way to make color is to use colored light bulbs which can be purchased from any lamp store for slightly more than a normal light bulb. Think about what you are lighting and what would be the normal color for where you are. If you are trying to create the light of the moon try a pale blue, or orange for a nice harvest moon. If creating the light of the fire use orange and yellows (if you use gel for this there is even a color called "flame"). Light up your favorite Halloween Party Decorations for an awesome effect. Halloween Party Supplies like piñatas; party favors and serving items also are fun and fit the theme of a Halloween Party.
