Carve a killer pumpkin or two, for starters -

You could put fake spider webs and you could draw some art work that would be realistic. Remember, the judge’s probably want the most original.
go buy some really cheap spider webs, and hang them in every corner possible. Go to big lots and pick up some purple and orange lights and wrap them around anything with a pole structure or that wont catch on fire. For your doors take two black sheets, cut eye shaps in them so that when your lights are on the eyes glow. Also, carve up a few pumpkins and light them. you could also take red food dye and splash it around (it comes off with water) so that it looks like blood spatter.
You’d be surprised at what inspiration you can get from movies. And there can never be too many colorful lights and cobwebs.
