Must-Haves for Spooky Home Upgrades
Sounds that strike when they sense you.
The Waytronic Motion-Activated Sound Box plays any sound file—think creaking doors or sudden screams—the moment a visitor nears. Just add your favorite effects via USB for a jump scare that’s as easy as plug, load, and go.
Fog that surprises.
Pair the Chauvet Hurricane 1000 Fog Machine with the Westek MLC4BC motion plug — motion triggers fog, lights, and ambiance automatically. Just plug in and let your haunted display come alive when guests approach.
Brilliant glow that lasts all night.
Ambient Glow Technology™ creates ULTRA-X grade stones, rocks, and pebbles that absorb sunlight and glow for up to 15+ hours after only 8–10 minutes of UV exposure. Perfect for lining walkways, highlighting garden beds, or adding a magical touch to Halloween displays and year-round outdoor décor.
Animated décor that comes alive
Bring your yard to life with app-controlled or motion-activated Halloween props that talk, move, or light up. From giant skeletons to creepy creatures, these pieces make every entrance unforgettable.

Tip of the Week:
Q: How do you protect your holiday lighting from heavy storms?
A: Use smart surge-suppressing outdoor outlets (GFCI rated) or plug your lighting into an outdoor-rated smart switch with automatic cutoff. That way, if storm voltage spikes or lightning flickers, your lighting system will protect itself—and you won’t have to scramble after.
Until next time,
