History
Inspired by the Disney special effect using projection to add life to a characters face, I wanted to push the idea further, and incorporate effects onto the body, and a crystal ball to help further the storytelling.
The show was heavily influenced and structured by using the amazing musical pieces from "The Haunted Mansion" movie. I utilized the opening credits sequence (embracing the sound effects) to structure my story. I was lucky to have such willing talent to make this a reality. My longtime friend Dana Belben (from the movie "Surf's Up") made the character come alive. Professional Editor Daniel Russ, did the amazing editing. The sound is in 5.1 surround, so the effects and "ghosts" were very immersive. Learned quite a bit on this, and hope to do more in the future!

Joseph Juneau of Juneau studios, contacted me and purchased "a copy for his home haunt". To my shock and dismay I discovered he was trying (and still is) to sell it as a package, without any credit given to me, or the others who helped create it, and no compensation. I'm horrified and embarrassed, as it is not of a quality that I would want sold, and feel terrible for the people that were swindled. Please do not buy anything from him. If anyone is interested in something like this I'd gladly create more!
