Default missing props

We have been lucky so far. I finally got 1 thing stolen that I hoped would be stolen. It was one of those little dolls that crafters make that look like they are standing in the corner crying. Well I put it as close to the sidewalk as I could, finally somebody took her, I didn t like it...but it was given to me and I always say I'll use what ever anyone gives me (lol)
I usually put dummys out front of my house and bring in the heads( masks) in the evenings. Usually all the clothes are from goodwill and didn t cost much. My tombstones are made of wood, so they are heavy and not to easy to steal. I also have 2 signs, one says video servllience, and the other says
property protected by smith and wesson. I keep the back yard locked. Thats is where the majority of our stuff is.But if some one wants something bad enough... they'll find a way to steal it no matter what ya do. There is a haunt on the other side of the city and that guy, has everything wired down., you can see all the wires, so any thiefs would know they would have some trouble taking things. that helps I guess.

Oh I forgot to say.. we never let anyone in the haunt with a mask on. we tell them its for their own saftey ,because of the uneven ground.( that way we get a good look at everyone who goes thru)
