Thread: Fortune Teller

Tweet

The man in charge of my haunt's construction is keen on building a fortune teller that would automatically dispense custom fortunes when a person walked close.
Instead of dropping thousands on a Zoltar, I was wondering if some kind soul could help me out?

I am looking for tutorials on how to rig a sensor (motion sensor I assume) to a device that would turn a wheel of tickets and dispense one. Can anyone help?

I built a completely animated one a few years back. It had a Prop-1 controller that was programmed to turn on the crystal ball light and the mp3-player with the fortunes.
You can find the build on the bottom of this page in my blog.
Hope this helps.

Thank you very much. I'll look over it right now.

That looks great! How did you rig the sensor and prop controller and what kind of sound player did you use? We're a charity haunt, so I have to find the cheapest way to put something together :/

Thanks again!
