Moving Haunted Overload

[elowther]

Wow, I can't believe this thread has been brought back from so long ago. The haunt is so much more built up now.

Anyway, I have used different methods over the years depending on the size and or my budget at the time. For small ones I have used night lights with a chicken wire cage around them and a plastic bag spray painted yellow or orange. Since our attraction is outdoors the bag keeps the water out and the paint gives the light a nice color. Just make sure the kind of nightlight doesn't get too hot.

For big pumpkins I have used a flouresent 100 watt bulb with yellow or and or orange gel material over it to give it a deep colored glow.

Hope this helps,

Eric

Eric what safety precautions do you take when you make these gigantic monters. What if the wrong person saw this and tried to duplicate it and got hurt? Not sayin this will happen but its always a posibility. I dont think I personally would want to be 50 ft in the air on a ladder tryin to put one of these things together. Just wondering. Hope you dont take any offense to me asking.

This looks cool when you are right under it. I don't have a photo from that angle yet.

Your small buildings look scary even in full daylight! That's impressive!

[elowther]

Not to mention saving tons of money making stuff out of sticks, LOL!

The two tipi like structures are walk throughs and look pretty cool inside.

I am consistently impressed by the organic feel of your work... it looks like a natural extension of the landscape. By incorporating so much nature, you set the bar for how outdoor haunts should look. Keep it up!!

Seriosly, that is amazing it looks like a northeastern hick town. Keep on kicking ass, it's looking great!

Eric Im loving all this! Its really looking great. And it even looks scary in the day. I can only imagine what it would look at night. With the moon shining through the trees. I just hope you dont get poison ivy from all this. LOL! Keep rockin!

The vulture hideout is totally awesome .I really enjoy the way you use branches, logs, etc., and you turn them into something spectacular. Keep up the excellent work, It's been a joy watching your progress.

Thanks for the support guys! Shane, we will have some stories for sure if we live through this year! Badass, I'd love to see your haunt someday. Bret, you kick ass every year! You and the other actors are what really make Haunted Overload something special. I love to make a playground for the actors to do their thing, it's cool.

Photos to come soon.
