Halloween activity

Any suggestions for a half hour halloween activity?? I teach Social Studies but the activity doesn't necessarily need to be Social Studies related. I'm thinking something crafty, or a good poem and a craft to go along with it. I'd welcome any ideas!!!

I just saw your post this afternoon. We did two quick Halloween activities this week. One was mummies for Red Ribbon Week, my slogan was "Don't Do Drugs, It Will Upset Your Mummy!" The other activity was a social studies tie in to epitaphs on tombstones. There are websites with examples of humorous epitaphs, I just made a list and the kids used those.

I have attached pics. If you need templates for tombstones, there are tons online. For the mummy activity here is the link. BTW, I didn't have 25 toliet paper tubes, so I just cut cardstock to 4 1/2 inches wide and rolled/stapled it to make a tube.
