We just moved into a new house with a large front yard and some big oak trees. We're going to set up a graveyard and pumpkin patch and would like to stretch a rear projection screen between two of the oak trees to create a background of spirits rising from the cemetery and pumpkin patch. The...

Hey Spooky People! This isn't so much a request for a tutorial as it is a "am I going about this correctly" guide. The entrance to our haunt is a sort of fall-down-the-rabbit-hole type deal. I want to build a rock arch similar to this: It's not going to be that wide as I only have about 5'...

I want to do a "open air" Hollusion, meaning just out in the yard. I assume I need to two stakes that I'll paint matte black and then attach the Hollusion matierial to the stacks. On AtmosFX website they say a little bit of ambient light BEHIND the Hollusion screen makes it look better. But...

Hey there! I am looking for a cheap projection material to do a REAR projection in our third stall. It is a standard single stall garage door. I am in MN, so between weather and a street light, have decided to do rear projection. I have a business class Epson that will work great and plan on...

For the past few weeks I’ve been trying to find the Platinum chiffon at Joanne’s. Today I finally found a store that had it, and a person working there who knew what it was. It turns out that although the website calls it Platinum, it’s now called Grey Velvet. Lucky for me, one worker at one...

Has anyone ever owned or used one of these. Wondering what the best screen would be.

I'm wanting to create a projection screen that will be elevated up in the air. Maybe up to 8 to 10 feet. I want at least one of my apparitions to be floating above the ground. Last year, I used PVC pipe to project my apparitions at ground level. No higher than 4 1/2 feet. The wind took this...

I repurposed an old metal pergola like you see on home depot: I made an entrance gate out of 2 of the columns and found a use for the other two. If you look at the front of the picture, you will see 2 metal supports made of 1/2" steel square frame welded together. 2 of these panels screw...

Hello again, I finally bit the bullet and bought an Epson projector along with a Micca Speck for my SD cards loaded with AtmosFX scenes. Looked great until I started getting the green flash screen (only for scenes with multiple files) during looping. I read another thread about this issue but...

My haunted garage came out great this year... I did a few things different this year that worked really well. I got the idea from a video on youtube. This person said to get a 9' foot wide shower curtain on Amazon. Then run black masking time along the outer edge of each side on BOTH sides...

The past couple of years I've played Zombie Invasion in my front window using my Epson projector and laptop without issue. I just got the Bone Chiller dvd today and upon testing it, I've noticed between every scene I get "dvd:///e/" displayed on my screen. I really don't want that showing...

I would like to make a prop/sign for my haunt that has rules on it (no running, don't touch anything, etc), but I just don't have the time this year. What I would like to try to do instead is make a simple video displaying the rules (that I can just put on my TV at the entrance) with some...

Lil GHouliette bought me a FX Projector. The cloth screen that comes with it is too small. I went out on the net and a frosted shower curtain was suggested. Has anyone used this? Does it work well? My living room window is 10 ft wide and the area I have to cover, center panel of the window is...

so glad to be working out on Halloween again. Just too many ideas and not enough time and money. lol.. This year my big project is a mausoleum facade that will fill my garage opening and have a projection screen behind it. I started With Entrance, now I'm working on the side flanking walls...

So part of my haunt this year is a broken down wall with a projector behind it. i just finished the screen and thought id share. I'm kind of flying blind on this because i've never done it before but it seems to be turning out nicely. hopefully the facade will come out as well. at the moment I'm...

Hi, I think I know the answer to this already, but are any of you aware of a suitable video clip that can be played repeatedly on a screen in a Frankenstein themed haunt? The plan for the haunt so far is that there will be a room with simulated electrical equipment and a person in a...

Hi,my name is Jaime and I'm a very novice haunter and I have a question.I want to project a homepage image of Ghostbusters Slimer about the roof of my house. I want it to look like he's flying above the side of my house. Does anybody have an ideas of what kind of screen I could use. I want it to...
