Halloween at my place


Sapper

Recommended Posts

So I kind of get into Halloween...prop making, animatronics, etc...

I have been making props for 5 or so years, and collecting decor for 15+.

We had a party last night and I set up the haunt by 8. I tried to get video/pictures at night but the Droid wasn't picking it up very well. If anyone has any ideas on how to get a good clear video with droid at night please let me know. I want to get a video of the full effect, because the pics don't do it justice.

I snapped a few shots of some of my 'scarier' props today. I would get some pics of the decor for the party but the place is trashed atm...Here are some:

This is my flying crank ghost. He moves around like a ghost via pulley's, servo, etc...I have a blacklight and a fan on him for full effect:

Roots the Overseer. He is on the flatroof with a spot on him, looking over the graveyard and unsuspecting Trick r Treaters:

The Tree Man. I made him back in college with my ex, but we had no way to bring it back to Charlotte, so I remade it this year. Simple PVC, chicken wire. At night, I have a red night on him, enhancing the effect. I almost electructed myself setting the light up last night!

Don't have a name for this guy yet, I had a spot on him too last night:

Heading up to the door:

The graveyard, years of work. You really have to see it at night. I have a blue light on all the creatures, gravestones, etc.. and a ground fog machine that rolls out fog every 5 minutes...really creepy when the fog cooperates:

Boo!

Finally, this is my girl that likes to look through the window and people coming up. I set up a light with a lightning machine attached...sounds make the light flicker so it was like a burning out light effect:

That is just a few images....I hope to get a better video tonight or tomorrow night to show everyone the full effect.

Happy Halloween!

Thanks for all the kind words!

I lost my phone last night, but I am getting it back tomorrow, so I am going to setup the full haunt for one more night (dia de los muertos is my excuse) and take some video.

If anyone cares to come check it out while I have it up then PM me and I can shoot you our address.

Hope everyone has a Happy Halloween!

    • Latest video I wrote is out. While I try to write with no bias, I have to say I am not 100% sure that the right guy was convicted. Let me know what you think.    
    • I quite literally have said multiple times this week that Bryce did not play well on Sunday. What in the world are you even talking about? Jesus Christ son, at least pretend to have a grip on reality rather than trying to constantly make yourself the victim. Hell, look at you now pretending to be victimized by poo emojis and the ignore function because of your views on the QB. I don't give a poo if you like Bryce Young and have had no issues interacting with other posters that are done with him. You, however, cannot have a difference of opinion without resorting to insults. Case in point, your very first response to me in this thread. That is what got you put on ignore and poo emoji'd: you acting like a shithead. We've had this back and forth multiple times now where you say I don't like you because you don't like Bryce, I clarify that I just don't like your engaging in bad faith and acting like a bitchy little teenager whenever your perspective is challenged. I thought that maybe, just maybe we could start the season off on the right foot and have an exchange of ideas without the weird sexual tension or whatever it is that has you all hot and bothered whenever you see my name. Clearly, I gave you too much credit. Back to the toilet you go.  
    • It's a QB driven league, which means that all of the parts surrounding the QB have to be in order. No OL? QB isn't going to have time to throw or be able to hand it off. No weapons? Won't matter how well they play, can't catch it for them. Bad coaching? They're not the ones designing and calling plays. Football is one of the ultimate team sports. All 11 players need to be in sync rather than one player being dominant (imo). Hell, even with Tom Brady, not a single one of his rings came without a top-10 defense on the other side of the ball or a top-10 OL in front of him. I can understand people having lost patience with Bryce, especially starting off on the wrong foot for the third season in a row. That's not an issue. The issue I have is with folks being intentionally misleading and attempting to tell other posters what they're not allowed to talk about. Considering how often Red has claimed others have done this to him it is interesting at best, disingenuous at worst for him to turn around and do the same.
