By MELISSA RAYWORTH Associated Press Halloween, the holiday built around the twin pleas- ures of playing dress-up and eating too much candy, is obviously a hit with chil- dren. But send invitations to your grown-up friends and you’ll probably find they haven’t outgrown the urge to don creepy costumes and celebrate in spooky, theatri- cal style. Want to host a party that merges Halloween fun with grown-up sophistication? Turning your home into a haunted mansion is surpris- ingly easy, says interior designer Brian Patrick Flynn, founder of Flynnside Out Productions. Just ditch the cheerful orange pumpkins and smil- ing ghosts for darker, more creative dicor. “Stay away from anything cute,” Flynn says, “and instead opt for creepy-chic.” Here Flynn and two other design experts — Jon Call of Mr. Call Designs and the latest “HGTV Star” winner, AP photos Tiffany Brooks — offer dec- A haunted-house entryway (right), with ripped pieces of orating advice for a memo- cheesecloth that were soaked in weak tea, created by rable, stylish and affordable designer Brian Patrick Flynn for HGTV.com in Atlanta.
