    These are the first props I have finished for 2009. They're all for the expanded cemetery this year.

    Grave Escape

    HeadPoppers: I wanted some extra movement in the cemetery and these three fit the bill exactly. They were very easy to build. The tombstones are ones I bought from jdubbya (Thank you!).

    Those are great!!!

    Did you build the "grave escape" yourself? I love it -- it's got so much movement. And the audio is nice, too.

    Very cool props.

    Thank you. I built the Grave escape patterned from the orignal shiatsu massager prop by Spooky Sam. There's a how-to somewhere on the web if I can find it.

    Thanks you all! Here is the link to the How-To from Spook Sam on the shiatsu massager Grave Escape prop.


    Spooky Sam's Zombie Grave Escape


    I must say it was the most challenging of the props. The part where he says the placement of the straps to limit the movement is mostly trial and error...well, it's mostly error and a whole lotta trial. My massager looks like swiss cheese it has so many holes in it. Suffice to say the every one will be different and you just have to keep adjusting them until you get the movement you want.

    Thanks for the great comments!

    the grave escape would be great in an area that the people don t have very much room to back away from it, and still HAVE to go by it, just outta reach.
    its great I love it.
