  1. Halloween Props
    Hello! I've lurked on here for a long time but I've been following threats for a while, and If I overlooked something that answers this, just throw it at me. Has anyone ever experimented with using Great Stuff Insulation Foam (or any variety) for casting a mold? Is it even possible? Reason I...
  2. Halloween Costume Ideas
    Hi friends. So, I have a “prized mounted deer head” costume that is really simple, just a deer head you wear like a hat. It’s cute, but being an extremist, it’s not enough. I want to make a “wall” with old wallpaper, pictures and medals etc that I would wear so that it looks I’m really mounted...

    Hey everyone!! I just wanted to share my method for making lightweight haunt panels. Each panel is made of 4 2x3s and 1-2 foam insulation boards. The reason I use 1/2” foam insulation boards is 1. They are lightweight 2. They are strong and easy to pain 3. And they are rather inexpensive (1 4x8...

    Does anyone know if you can substitute ceramic wall tile cement for wall filler when making monster mud? I have got hold of a large tub of this stuff and I wondered if it was possible to use it for M.M?

I had intended to use it for projecting onto a window for Halloween 2017 I but didn’t use it until...

  8. Halloween Props
    I was looking for something to cast a large dinosaur image on our 2-story house's side wall when we set up for our dino haunt and can't wait to try out. It's 15W and hoping it will be bright enough to do what I want and still be creepy lighting. Just ordered it from Amazon. It's a set of...

    This focus of this thread is on collecting and sharing our tabletop displays. Not just during the collecting season, but also during the off season with finds from thrift stores, garage/yard sales, Ebay, Craigslist, etc. How long and what types of Halloween tabletop, wall, window, and tree...

    So, I've been kinda dormant with building for a while. This year I decided to go big or go home:) Early September I got the idea to do a crypt wall over the garage door, thanks to others on here. Well then I decided to up the anti a little bit and add a little "shock" factor. So, I started...

    Hi, This is my first post on the forum, and I'll have to admit that i found this at the very last minute. I work as a teacher for kids who are 16-20 years old and we decided to build our own "House Of Horror" as project for Halloween. I will here share what we did, and also how we did it. Both...

    Hello There, Very new to this forum but I have a problem going on with my Pumpkin Nester Prop. :mad:I plug him in and he does not activate as normal. I then unplug then plug him back into the wall and he activates. Seems as if only unplugging from wall then plugging back in activates him. Any...

  16. Halloween Props
    Picked up these last year from HD and was inspired as our house has a cemetery theme. I wanted to mount them on the columns on either side of our front door so I cut the back of the skulls off using a jig saw and then epoxied a piece of wood towards the top to act as a mount. Originally they...
  17. Halloween Props
    So I made this a number of years ago. It will (eventually) span all the way across the porch (hopefully next year) BUT i have a small problem. It's more or less secure across the top, but the bottom flops around in the wind despite a wood frame behind. The screws are also puling away from the...
