    This is quite an old test pattern we made to test the motion and audio syncing for our 3-axis skull. There's a custom PCB running the 4 servos inside the head and a VB6 program which plays the sound and sends commands to the PCB over RS485. We took plenty of pictures of the build process Grim...

    I made a rotting head using the shop towel and latex corpsing method. Figured I should make yet another tutorial video while I was at it. I'm going to make a second, even more rotted head that will be missing the lower jaw. Both of mine will be impaled on a stick or stake, but you can make them...

    Haunted tree reveal!:D I was cutting it short close on my tree! I was literally finishing the touch ups right as my husband was putting it together yesterday! Even though I did not get a chance to paint it, it still looks great! I got so many compliments on my tree and people couldn’t believe I...

    When I built our new witch hut I cut pieces of the side panels from our old one to create "pelts" that look like dried or tanned skins with human body parts embedded in them. I've had many questions and requests for tutorials on them, but since they were salvaged from an older work I don't...

    I picked up a skeleton from Spririt the other day, but it is way too cute for my yard. I am looking into converting him into a groundbreaker and would like him to have a greyish corpse look to him similar to the below pictures. I've seen some posts about using plastic wrap and a heat gun to...

  9. Halloween Props
    Hi everybody! A while ago, my wife asked me if I could make a replica of the spellbook from the movie "Hocus Pocus". It shouldn't be just a prop, it also should be an actual sketchbook. I made a video of the entire build process, and managed to edit it into a 20-minute video: I used a kraft...

    Along with the mask thread, this is a placeholder for the full animated scarecrow. I am just going to rock a chair with servos, light the eyes and move the head but still I want to note the entire process. So this part is completed as of today, the arduino and wiring, I think the code should...
  12. General Halloween
    I enjoy the planning and execution stages of my haunt as much as the 'reveal'. How much do you plan in advance? Is it a months long process to plan and build or do you madly rush to finish the last week of October? Share your process and current pics if you have some to show your progress to...

    After being gone all last year! Moving across country we are back to being members of the forum. We built a Great Pumpkin in 2014 (pic attached). Since we have a new neighborhood we are going to try the great pumpkin a second time. We will try to add pictures throughout the process. :)
