Alyssa Spanik creates "vampire blood" as the next experiment.
Audra Deming and Rayna Brito watch as ingredients are mixed for the "blood."
Connor Shefflin said his costume gloves came in handy when making experiments.
Fifth grade teachers, including Dr. Barker, also got into the Mad Scientist Day spirit.
Krish Khemlani creates tall structures with candy corn and candy pumpkins.
Logan Milan and Sofie Mulcahy create a plan before building their structure.
Ryder Rees and Jordan Plattwork work together to create the tallest candied structure.
Evan Achterberg uses candy and toothpicks to create his team's structure.

Jimmy Kosmanopoulos drew a face on his "ghost poopers," the cotton ball launchers.
Emily Mohr shows off her goggles and crazy hair, which were as essential as creativity and critical thinking skills on Mad Scientist Day.
