Thread: Storage issues?

Anyone having trouble storing all of their haunt stuff?
Well, for me ... at least the neighbors will think twice before trying to break into my garage with so many ghouls staring them down. Oh, yeah, and the security camera >:P
THIS WAS BEFORE THERE WAS AN AVALANCHE

TOMBSTONES UP IN THE RAFTERS

GHOULS

MORE GHOULS

BATS - MY DAUGHTER'S FAVORITE PROPS

I have a 10x24 shed devoted to halloween props. I also have skeletons, bats, lanterns, etc hanging from rafters. I try to store whatever props I can within other props. By next summer I will have to build a permament crypt to double for storage.

My garage looks a lot like yours. I have stuff piled in the rafters, a lot on shelves, along walls, on the floor, on my old car, etc. etc. I also stuffed a lot into my toe pincher coffin. My basement is full of xmas stuff and the rest of the Halloween stuff. Hubby doesn't want a storage shed out back because, it would ruin the look of the yard. But then complains he can't get to anything in the garage!

Cool! Love yours props! We stacked also in the garage all the tobstones on top similar like you.

I've got my funeral carriage in the garage and can fit a lot of stuff in it and under it. I do need to fortify the "legs" so that I can wheel it around the garage easier

I'm having large issues with storage for my props. So far most of my actual props/tombstones etc are being stored in my cramped furnace room but I have run out of room. We made a full size toe pincher coffin last Halloween and its been leaning up against my house since then.

Don't know what to do, have actually thought of renting a storage locker but that is just another bill every month...ugh...

(Money that could much better be spent on more Halloween props...lol)

You can put stuff in the toe pincher and store it in your furnace room but, I think you will get a nice aged look with it outside. Every once in a while dump some dirt on it in different places to get that dark buried look. When it rains it will push the dirt down into the wood fibers for a naturally real look.

Thank goodness I have an unfinished basement

you are all lucky i dont have a garage OR basement..... just a 3 foot crawl space. i cant put anything in the attic beause i coulden even get anything up there. and the shed is full of yard stuff ect. and all the have for the big stuff is my neighbors garage. but i plan to build a 4 by 8 shed for only fence panels and haunt panels.
(this sort of sounds like a sob story)

Same here, I just started clearing room out in the basement for a stack of wall panels and crates. I decided for a haunt setting industrial crates can be obstacles in a haunt and can store lots of props and goodies. Plus you can can repaint them for different themes.
