If I were to make this, instead of putting in the gummy worms, put in a few black plastic spiders in it or some of those small bouncing balls that look like eyeballs. This would be cute in the orange jello, especially for a party. Could also do with a bright red jello, but could see it better when serving with a lighter color jello.
