New props for 2002!

Many of the new larger display pieces will be shown on the Dark Works 2002 page.



This as you can tell is the new wall decor facing the driveway leading down to the haunt. It is quite impressive and bigger than it looks. Overall its approx. 9' long x 4' wide.

I reworked many of the Bucky corpses making them into lighting fixtures which I fell make them more useful. The middle picture is the corpse from the 2nd volume of our HHPB Video Series.

Another reworked corpse used as a holder for the new TSP Banner.

The pic to the left is the large fixture (2' high) used over the haunt exit last year. I found nice compact silk flame units inside plastic pumpkins at Jo-Ann Fabrics. The existing bulb sockets where removed from the light fixture and the flame unit chopped from the pumpkin. The finished result looks and sounds like a gas light! The pic to the right shows the lighted sign from last year with new text. We always have problems with people (even in a group as small as 2) being 10 feet apart from one another!

Ok, one quick peek at part of the new Dark Works structure.

On to the new pneumatic props for 2002.

Many of these where based on original designs from the ScareFactory catalog.

 



This is one of the nicest pneumatic props we ever built. When triggered it goes from a sitting position, several feet up and forward toward the guests.

The Barrel prop has been redesigned. The head now remains static and the hands jump out to grab you. I also made a step forward and started using muslin fabrics to create clothing for the new and redesigned props.

This chained coffin looks harmless enough but when triggered the "undead" inside bangs the upper lid open and closed violently.

This is the new Monument prop. The reaper is in a static lower position at first (left). When triggered it flies backward and remains above the monument base till the switch is flicked off. Then it slowly lowers back to the rest position. More on this prop and its use when the Dark Works 2002 page is up.

This is a simple angled pop-up prop mounted into a frame for easy mounting behind a window cutout on a wood wall. The middle pic shows the prop fully extended.

The "Ozzy Prop" was re-dressed to make it lighter than last year's design.

This is the Zombie Pop-Out prop which is designed for use in a wall cutout. The pic to the left shows it in the rest position. Once triggered it comes out and up toward the guests. It's a nice compact unit which works really well!
