Haunted Pipe Organ

**Mr. Gris** · 02-09-2010,05:42 PM

I just picked up an electric organ on Craigslist for free! What a score it works and everything. My plan is to convert this organ to a spooky pipe organ and have a skeleton playing it for my yard haunt. I will add a motor to the skeleton for movement and music will play from inside the organ. I am using pvc for pipes and with paint them gold. I will also add candles skulls and a large bat to hold the music sheets. So I have a good concept of what I will be doing to create the prop but I am curious if anyone else out there has made one? If so do you mind sharing pictures to help inspire my design?

Check out Markgoodson's thread. That is exactly what he did and it turned out great!!

I will check that out thanks! I am eager to build this prop I think it will make a fantastic piece of decor in my mancave until Halloween is upon us again.

We made one a couple of years ago. It isn't as elaborate as mark goodson's, but we like it

As Ms Meeps said not as cool as Marks, but no programing just gear motors. The organist is from DC props builers hand book plans.

Here is ours. Someday, I hope to animate it, but for now, it's just a static prop. Not as cool as some i've seen here, but it looks pretty good in low light, with cobwebs all over it, and a corpse sitting at it. I have a CD of Bach organ concertos that I play through three way computer speakers hidden in the organ. Honestly, Tocata & Fugue in D Minor is great, but it's not my favorite track. There are some other really cool, spooky tracks on it. Anyone building pipe organ prop should really pick up a copy!

Wow these all look amazing! I will most likely build the organ as a static prop this year and just animate my organist only. I love all of these such wonderful jobs you all did.
