    Has anyone here set-up an endless hallway effect in a front door window? No picture windows in the front of my house, but I have a front dining room (empty) with two windows. Haven't measured, but I'd guess they're about 3' wide by 5' high, with maybe 5 feet separation between the two. I'm bad with dimensions and can't find my measuring tape. But you get the idea. I'd keep one window shut and would want the other window open to reveal an endless hallway.

    Would this even be effective at all? We have hedges in front of the windows, so no one can come up to the window directly.

    If anyone's done something like this, could you please post pictures or video? And a source of instructions.

    Thanks!

    If TOT can't get close, my guess is that the effect would be diminished. Another issue is glare from street lights or other ambient light...they can sometime spoil the effect with an off reflection or glare.

    The dinigin room would need fairly bright lighting to make it stand out.

    Setup a little test and see for yourself. Experiment. Even if that doesn't pan out, you may discover some other great use for that room/window/mirrors.

    You need to be pretty close for the effect to work, and it has to be almost completely dark outside.

    Thanks Screaming Demons. I think I'll stick with my "in house" green laser vortex for the front window:
