  1. General Halloween
    I have 3 lengths of string lights. Each one over the years has had a bulb burn out (I think) so that half the strand is lit and the other is dark. So I just toss them in a box called "Bad" because I'm lazy. Now I'm trying to get them working. I have spare bulbs and I change the first one in the...
  2. Halloween Props
    Many many years ago around 2008 or 9 we moved into our house and at the time most people went to menards,Walmart or Walgreens for Halloween decor. Partially because menards and Walmart where huge stores in the north part of Lincoln. Anyways when we moved in we decided to buy some new decor along...

    I know how popular these are, and I LOVE the effect they give to just about any swampy or witchy scene. So I decided to make my own! I'll post some step-by-steps with pictures here in the coming days. I've seen lots of versions of these over the years, and I've watched a couple tutorials...

    Not one of my usual stores to check for Christmas clearance, but I happened to go there today and scored flicker-flame light bulbs (2 pack) for 74¢ each! They also had the steady candle bulbs (2 pack) for 24¢!!! I am sorry now that I didn't grab more than I did. 50' grounded outdoor green...

    Howdy Folks! This is my first post in what feels like eons (on a new account, no less).... and I'm so glad to see this community is still THRIVING, even during the off-season! I've tasked myself with an elaborate project for next year, and it involves something I have little experience with...
  7. Halloween Props
    I want to put about 20 carved foam pumpkins on the stairs in front of our house but I don't want to mess with turning on and off those little battery powered puck lights in each and every one every night for a month. In the past, I've put a string of tiny orange lights in a mason jar inside each...

    There has been a big increase in the technology used in LED bulbs over the past few years, in that many are now dimmable. Does anyone know if these dimmable bulbs can be successfully used with lightning machines? We run two 500w Halogen floods outside, which do a great job for producing the...

    This year, my new cemetery columns will be located in a different part of my yard which is further away from an electrical outlet. I'd like to try and avoid having to run a long extension cord out there, so I was looking into solar light bulbs as an alternative. I've seen some with solar...

  14. Halloween Props
    Last night we did a full lighting test and everything was fine, but we have a creepy fence with two strings of Christmas lights on it in front of the graveyard and it looked kind of goofy with blue and green lights. So we got some new bulbs and were replacing all of the blue and green bulbs...

    Hey guys, I'm trying to build my own fake fire for a burning town scene and I'm hung up on the lighting. I have the silk flames and all but every light I try looks like crap. I know the LED's in the commercial cauldrons are very bright and look great but I don't know what lumens they are or...
  16. General Halloween
    I haven't really even started decorating outside yet. But every evening for last week, I've been playing with my Philips hue bulbs on the porch and highlighting a few props in my windows. It has been so much fun customizing the Huelloween app to get only the creepy sounds I want. This has been...

    HI. I have a hanging ghoul whose eyes are powered by 3 AAA batteries. The bulbs are LEDs. They change color. Problem is that one of the bulbs came loose from the wire and now is gone. Any help in finding a replace bulb or bulbs. EBAY seems to have some but I don't know where to start...

    Stopped in Michaels today to take advantage of their 50% floral and greenery sale (thru Sat 3/4). They also have 40% off on some of their lighting as shown below. This includes their Gemmy Lightshow LED projection and screw-in lighting. These are the kaleidoscope style bulbs (not Fire & Ice)...

    I'm definitely no electrician, but I'm looking to create a certain style of lighting in my front haunt. Last year I created a "Throne of Bones" for a photo op, and this year the backdrop will be a huge Pumpkinreaper, arms spread wide, partially over the Throne, to help shade the black light...

    I have five flame cauldrons/torches that all take a small orange halogen bulb. (I have one LED lighted cauldron that is quite frankly a dim joke) Years ago these bulbs were rather easy to locate. Well this week I had two of them burn out and I began to search all over the web for replacements...
