Fantastic! and for St. Jude's. God Bless you!
Keep up the Great work!

Awesome cause and a great haunt. 2 questions for you..

1. How did you do the vampire portrait? It is truly awesome!
2. What did your floors look like after the night?

I got the vampire portrait video from Youtube and added the frame. Then played in a loop on the big LCD screen mounted in the cathedral ceiling of the haunted house (our clubhouse). It could be seen from everywhere inside.

The floor weren't too bad. We have industrial grade carpet in the clubhouse which takes a beating pretty good. Had to do a lot of vacuming though!

Here is a link to the vampire portrait.

You can do a search on google for tools to download video from Youtube.

WOW!! My sister lives outside Atlanta and I bet she has been holding out on me! I am SURE she takes her girls through this for a great scare and to support St. Jude's! This is superb! Would love to see a floor plan and the layout of the trail they make through the house - plus how do you keep from having the walls, floors and all from getting damaged by all the foot traffic? Did you get a final head count (pun intended... hee hee) and How much did you raise!?! This looks so fun - I may have to drive down next year! Great job on ALL the props an the excellent set up!

Thanks for the comments.
Here is the final floor plan that we used.

We hung black plastic everywhere including the outer walls. The inner walls were all constructed from aluminum gazebo tents and PVC with black plastic and scene setters.
The carpet in our clubhouse is almost black and very industrial grade. Our neighborhood budgets for new carpet every few years so it is no big deal anyway

The final head count was around 500 people over Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night. Most people came out on Saturday night.
We made about $2000 for St. Judes.

Thanks again

Oh my -- this just absolutely takes my breath away! Thanks so much for all the details and again - what can i say but WOW!!
