I don't know if you saw the Hostess With the Mostess blog on this website or not. It is also a great resource for all kinds of halloween party ideas. I love this website. She has very creative ideas.

Mhooch, I love going to thrift stores that is one of my favorite things to do.
Worstwitch - love the ideas, thanks for the tips I will definately make good use of them.

HGTV's website has quite a few cool ideas for Halloween. Even if they're not exactly what you're looking for, they can be a starting point.

Hostess thanks for the blog info. I will try that
Pandora great site, very cool ideas. Jeeze Louise I don't know how I am ever going to decide on what to do for which party. Good thing I'm starting now.

Keep those ideas coming!

Spookilicious Mama, I will suggest a Masquerade party based on the Venetian Carnival theme. You know with all the guest dressed up in black with masks, kind of like in the Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut movie ?
(see that link if you don't know what I'm referring to :
It looks very classy, such as a upper class like party, and very creepy too! All those expressionless mask gathered... Maybe you could add some Italian opera, or baroque music playing while the guest are chatting and having some fun. Feel free to improve !

Thanks Dr. Z. Great ideas. I will check out the movie to see what you were talking about.
Keep those ideas coming guys.

Warpaint has some awesome labels he made for his witch jars. I used them for that and also for labels for my appetizers. Hopefully they are still available from his webpage.

Check out this thread:

Oh I forgot. Do you have an IKEA by you? I picked up a glass picture for $2. It 's kinda small, but maybe they have larger ones? I can't remember since it was awhile ago.

SM - Ok so everyone's thrown alot at you. Have you gone in any direction in particular? Or shown any preference? Just to give us an idea of what you're leaning too, so we can go that way... Does that make sense?

Pandora - I love the web site that you sent me on elegant parties. So I'm thinking of going with the black or red velvet table cloths the elaborate centerpieces, lots of candles. Very dark and sophisticated. I really want to try to make it as elegant and dark as possible.
