Just thought I'd drop a suggestion from an experiment i tried last year...
My wife LOVES having dry ice in a bowl in our sun room as the trick-or-treaters come up to the main door. I decided to try this out with one of my 'kins, and I got a CRAZY effect!! I used a small metal cereal bowl with warm water, dropped the dry ice chunk in, threw in some purple glow sticks, and VOILA!! I had the most insane looking purple, foggy grim reaper!! It was one of my funkins, and I still have it so I'll try to do the same set up this year and snap some pics to post. The trick to heavy fog with dry ice was to use warm water instead of room temp or cold water... i'm no chemist, so i can't explain why.
Anyone else ever messed with or have any dry ice ideas that i can try out?
