I spent a good majority of my time the last few months constructing a coffin bar that I wanted for my yearly party. It started with a vision that I had a few years ago and finally decided to make it a reality. I can't tell you how many compliments I got on it. We had a party on the 25th with about 60 people and it worked flawlessly. Of course we used it on Halloween night too with about 10 of us here handing out candy.
I made the base that it's mounted to so I can have the fog machine under it and store extra beer and supplies.
Fog pipes up into the coffin and is delivered inside the main area of the coffin and also comes out the eyes and mouth of the skulls on the front of it.
I have blue rope light inside that lights up when you open the lid. I also put 3 led's under the cross on the top.
The section where your head would go is for making drinks. It has 2 places for storing cups, 3 places for liquor bottles, an ice chest with a scooper and a condiment holder for lemons limes and cherries. The larger bottom ice chest is for beer and soda. I had one case of soda and a 12 pack of seagrams and 4 cases of beer in it for the big party and had room to spare.
As the ice melts there are drain holes in the ice chests and a pvc drain that goes under it and out the side.
lighting is not the best but it shows the fog pretty good.

That is very cool indeed. I really like the rope light. It gives me a really good idea how to light the inside of my coffins.

thank you!! And yes the rope light with the fog is a great look. IT's not real bright but enough to look eerie

Excelent Idea
Very good craftsmanship! Looks very professional!
Love the idea. I would use that in the summer too!
By the way what did you use for the ice bucket sections?
