    It’s a good feeling. Almost a relief knowing I am done. I’ve been at it non stop since mid July and am about burnt out. I think I made about 35 new props after only making one or two things last year. I can’t wait to set up this weekend. My final prop was a 13 foot tall demon tree king...

    Every year I break out the cold steel rods that make up my fence and every year I pound them into the ground wwith a hammer while my own children make fun of how many different shades of red I can turn. So this year I've predrilled some holes in the grond and measured some pvc pipe and shoved...

    Hi All, Planning on building a mirror prop with a two way mirror and the sprite video player from frightprops. Does anyone have or recommend clips that that would go well for this? Would like to have the clip triggered with a foot pad when the trick or treaters approach the mirror for candy. :)

    We bought a 15 foot ghost in 2013 and we used it that year and in 2014. Last year when we put it up the 2nd motor ( there are 2 in it) wasnt working and we cleaned it but it still wouldnt go so the 15 foot ghost will not blow up. We love the look of this in our haunt and its big and has a nice...

    question for those that have one, how sturdy is the MM project when complete? I usually store all of our props at a location well away from our haunt, so a reaper would need to move a few miles at least. Would a 7 foot reaper hold up to moving in the back of a pickup truck? Laying flat on a...

    Well I am slowed down this season but things are on the build My wife has taken over the haunt and I have to say it is looking pretty good. The reason I am slowed down is tearing the ligaments in the Lisfranc section of my left foot (don't do it... seriously not fun surgery) But I figured if...
