To make a frozen hand, wash a disposable glove, fill with water, seal with a rubber band and freeze until hard.
Stir together grape soft drink mix, orange soft drink mix, sugar and water until solids are dissolved. Combine with chilled ginger ale just before serving. Dip the frozen hand briefly in warm water, then peel off the glove. Float the prepared hand in the punch bowl for a ghastly effect.

You Have Jello for Brains!
BRAIN MOLD6 small or 3 large boxes of watermelon (works best) or peach Jell-o1 can light or non-fat evaporated milk*2 1/2 cups boiling water1 cup cold waterGreen food colorSpray inside of the mold with a non-flavored cooking spray (like Pam). Dissolve Jell-o in 2 1/2 cups of boiling water. Add 1 cup cold water and evaporated milk. Add food color to desired color (about 5 drops). Pour in mold and chill until set. To remove the brain, shake the mold gently until the gelatin loosens. Place a flat plate upside down over the open side of the mold, then flip the mold and the plate together. Lift the mold off, leaving the brain on the plate.*Don't use regular milk in place of the non-fat evaporated milk - it's won't be as cloudy and has a tendency to curdle or separate in this type of recipe. Don't use whole evaporated milk, either, since it may also curdle.VARIATION 1:About 15 drops each of red, green, and blue will make a realistic brain color of gray.VARIATION 2:Use blueberry Jell-o, adding red and green food coloring to get the color you want.VARIATION 3:Fill the mold about 1/2 full and chill until set. Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, make a baseball-sized hole in the center of the Jell-o, being careful to leave at least 1/2-1-inch of Jell-o between the hole and the mold. Fill the hole with pureed and strained raspberries or strawberries. Spoon in enough Jell-o to barely cover and seal the pureed fruit and chill until set. Add another thin layer of Jell-o and again chill until set. Then add the remaining Jell-o and chill until set. When you cut into the brain, the fruit "blood" will come oozing out.
