Thread: our new improved gravedigger/cemetery watcher

Tweet

last year we used a dressed up bucky skeleton as the gravedigger because i couldnt find a mask or head i liked , after seing the one buckaneerbabe made i fell in love with hers so this year we bought this head and made a body for it , i am a fan of disney haunted mansion and wanted one looking similar to their gravedigger ...i will give him his skeleton dog compagnion tomorow .

That looks great! Mind sharing how it was constructed?

Thanks!

wow, that looks almost identical to a 700 dollar prop i saw at halloween express the other day, good job

WOW !! The gravedigger looks fantastic!
You could put that in the Haunted Mansion and everyone would think he belongs there.
Great work!!

There's a guy in my garage that looks a lot like him! Good work. His chattering jaw is perfect!

He's SEXY!

Very Cool!! I love the Haunted Mansion.
please do share!!!!!!

thanks everyone ,

conman , he is more affordable then a 700$ prop , he is a prop for under 100$

his body frame is just 1 x 2 wood (5$) , shaking mouth head (50$) , stage hands aged myself(10$) , cloths from good will (hat , shirt , vest , pants , scarf,jacket , 12$) , boots we had (free) , lantern i had (free) , my garden shovel (free) ....

he as holes in his boots to be able to pass the wood pieces and stake him to the ground ....and instead of leaving the motor in his head that shakes to make his mouth sake , i tached it to the wood frame so it is loose shaking in his chest and attached a fishline to the mouth . (thanks again bukaneerbabe (dude?) hehehehe)

Wow, that is just as good at the Haunted Mansion stuff, he looks amazing! You should do this for a living

Hi Witch,
Could you tell me in the second video you have a head popper behind a grave stone. Could you tell me how you made that, because I am building one but don't like the plans of it. I like how yours is nice and slow and straight up and down.
