Halloween is just a few days away. Science Bob has put together some fun science experiments for you to try at home. You can make your own glowing beverages or jello, slime, ghost bubbles, ghost bubble spheres, screaming cups, bubbling potions, and a static dancing ghost.
If you prefer watching science experiments, watch Science Bob explode pumpkins on the Jimmy Kimmel show.
