I got the itch to get working on my fortune tellers prop today, I'm using a big scream tv video peppers ghost. Now I need curtains and to mix up some monster mud.

Okay, very, very cool!

Any chance you can get a little vid clip so we could see it working?

Smart move with the OSB. I was just at Lowe's yesterday and saw they're selling 4x8 sheets of 7/16" OSB for $4.80 a panel! Unbelievable!!!

I will try tonight, my camera sux for video at nite. Still too much light coming through the garage right now.

wish I had a lowes close, it was $5 and something at home depot, It will mostly be covered with curtains on the outside, the inside I have plenty of room for candles and will hang a multicolor kids playball to project it on.

oh yeah I put wheels on the bottom of the pallet so I can roll it around and pull it our of the rain if needed.

if you look close you can see a wolf man figure in there

Still a really good deal. Last winter, the OSB sheets were going for almost $9 a pop!

Good lick with the video. What are you playing for the pepper ghost effect? Video? DVD? Homemade?

Oh, and here it is, June 8th, and I haven't received any info from LOR regarding a secret summer sale!!

I'm using big scream tv's crystal ball video.
The LOR sale should be around summer solstice [june 21]and will go on a week or so if I remember correctly. If you choose the download your software now instead of waiting for a disc , you can get synching [if ya haven't already].
Get the usb connector too and unless you have lan cables already, ebay might be cheaper, though I bought a 100' from them just to be safe. Or you can be a big spender and go wireless...

That looks great!

 

[yardhauntjunkie]

The TOT's are going to go crazy over that!!!

 

[litemareb4xmas]

Thanks!, I'm mesmerized myself, had JohnnyAppleseed over here glued to it for about half an hour, I think we found his use for a peppers ghost, He's thinking of using the "hurry back" woman from the haunted mansion on one of his columns on the way out. Should be killer!

All I have to ask is if they had fortune tellers in old mining towns? But, if I am able to do a carnival theme in 2010 this is definitely going to be one of my projects.

 

[litemareb4xmas]

I've seen old western themed fortune tellers, Pappy - Las Vegas, NV - Coin-Operated Fortune Telling Machines on Waymarking.com
Trapper Fortune Teller - Center Hall, PA - Coin-Operated Fortune Telling Machines on Waymarking.com
even pirates Ye Olde Pirate - Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk - Santa Cruz, CA - Coin-Operated Fortune Telling Machines on Waymarking.com
how about an indian- MEDICINE MAN Fortune Teller Machine

 

[yardhauntjunkie]

I don't think I will be able to work it in this year, but that is awesome that all those are marked like that so that you can find them in your area!!!!! Thanks for the tip.

 

[litemareb4xmas]

there's a Pappy over in Winthrop

 

[yardhauntjunkie]

Are you saying I should go "borrow it"?

 

[JohnnyAppleseed]

Ok, like Litemare said, I was over his place this evening and this thing is way cool! I'm working on a way to incorporate a peppers ghost into the exit of my haunt after sitting around watching his Fortune Teller in action. Can't say enough about what Litemare has done with this in just one day!

Well yeah, Johnny isn't a good one to gauge reactions on. Doesn't take much to hold his attention hahaha
Got ya JA!

Nice work. I'm sure its going to be a big hit!
