Time for more Eye Candy!! We have such horrid sites to show you. This has been an extremely busy year for us. Prop and set designs are getting more involved each year. We added another 10 x 12 section onto the deck to increase haunt space underneath. The rooms are all redesigned for a better traffic flow as you will see in the Damnation Pages.

7 new air props have been designed and built for this haunt. We also rebuilt a few of our favorite Monster Mud props and designed a few new ones.

So hang on tight, this year is WICKED!





We have done a lot with lighting this year. It 's our "moth-to-a-flame" style tour guide. We added flicker circuits to several of the lights to get away from flicker bulbs. This also lets us increase wattage where needed without loosing the flicker effect. Most of the lights have been corpsed out with laxex and webbing.

We corpsed 4 more skeletons from Bone-Yard-Bargains. The picture to the left shows three of them in progress. We will be adding a separate page showcasing just our corpses in the future.

Below are two of the mud creatures we built again this year for our 3rd handbook. The Crawler and the Watcher!

Several mirrors where created for the main room in the haunt using our GraveStalkers skulls.

"Death Defiant" is the name of this new MM prop. To the right is a good side shot of the house with new boarded up window inserts.

Here is one of the new products we will be adding to the GraveStalkers line. It's the first in a line of "Fog Heads". The eyes and mouth can be cut out and lighted from behind with a colored bulb. Clear silicone caulk is used to fill in the eyes allowing colored fog to exit the mouth only.

Our wall fountain hangs in the main room of the haunt adding it's own sound to the atmosphere.

If you remember our Night Watchman from last year, he was holding a lantern in one hand. We didn't want the added light this year so we constructed this nice little strand of skulls-n-bones for him to clutch!

This is the start of a whole new air powered haunt! We will describe them in better detail in the Damnation Pages and all will be included in the 3rd handbook.

 



This guy is called "Oh Shit", named by many of our guests. He lives in the walls of our haunt. A simple air powered prop using burlap, our prop hands, and a mask.

This air prop is by far the most involved we have ever designed and built. Called the "Death Box", it is a 3 solenoid prop located in the main room. As shown below the lid lifts, the prop rises, and can then be tilted forward toward the guests.

This 5 foot tall fellow is called "Guts". The two air hoses in his chest whip around when triggered. The mask for this prop , "The Skin" was custom made for TSP from FEARMAKERS.

The Monk is first viewed in a kneeling position. He then rises up to 6ft right in front of you!

It's hard to tell how big this prop really is from the pictures. Called "Nocturnal Terror", this hanging bat prop is 8' head to claw and has a 12' wing span. This air prop was built for the 3rd handbook and will not be used in the haunt.

The "Soul Snatcher's" hands jump out at you when triggered. This prop uses a double PVC mini ram system so each hand moves at a different speed. This gives the prop a human like motion.

We created a better sign for the Scarecrow to hold and changed the wording.

Last but not least, the 5'x2' sign for over the first gate into the haunt. It is constructed out of foam board, plywood, GraveStalkers Skulls, and 2 lanterns. We corpsed the skulls and added a flicker circuit to the lights.

Almost all of the props above are in the
3rd Home Haunter's Prop Building Handbook
