[Yorkshire Ghost]

Hi all

as i am new here, i have been feeling a bit guilty about just "taking" information. everyone has been very helpful in dealing with my questions (and i have plenty more!!), but i feel that i am not doing my bit in helping out.

as i said, i am sort of new to this, but i am quite good with my hands, so as soon as i become more experienced i hope to be able to help.

anyway.........i saw this while on holiday in great yarmouth (outside a fancy dress shop called tickles)

it seems a rather easy prop to build, and it did draw quite a lot of comment.

maybe this will help some other people with ideas.

i assume it is a basic water pump just circulating the water, but i think it would be more effective with green or red coloured water.

if it has been shown before, then sorry for reposting.

sorry for the size of the pictures

Dazgill, glad you posted. Love the guy. He looks pretty realistic and a good use for a recirculating pump.

I think he might look good outside of a toxic lab I'm considering. I posted under props about a red beacon light and now I'm picturing him outside the lab, just after the ToTers have passed the area. Thanks for the idea.

Good prop.

I wonder how the restaurant next door likes him standing there, right outside.

I built one of those last year. It was sort of a last minute project so Im redoing him for this year. I used an old sump pump I got from work and a motion sensor light fixture with 2 outlets on it. I had a green bulb on one side and the other went to the pump. The kids loved it. Heres a pic
