Thread: Raven Manor 2011

Tweet

Hello all,

I hope everyone enjoyed Halloween. I lurk around here a lot but we had a great Halloween this year and wanted to share.

We added some new things to Raven Manor this year too. Our animated grave slab is patterned after the Hallowed Haunting Grounds. There is also a simple/static Pepper's Ghost in our window that we named Dr. Pepper. I created a variation on the Axworthy with a candle, that I call the "Restless Candle"; using the FrightProps.com PicoVolt controller, it floats through the cemetery, pausing and reversing as it meanders about. And our most original addition was the "Weeping Widow" who many thought was a real crying woman in our cemetery. Info on these additions and others can be found at http://ravenmanor.com/projects/

Here is the youtube link to our overall 2011 video: http://youtu.be/Yhzymip7sGc




(A lot of the video is brightly lit from the camera settings, but things are much more mysterious/dark in person )

Below are just a few photos, with more on our site: http://ravenmanor.com/photos/

And we are brand new on facebook: http://facebook.com/RavenManorUT
