My Son's Sign

My 8 year old son made this sign all by himself. Very creative of him.

Outhouse

Here's the outhouse for the haunted house. It is designed to be portable (several sections assembled with bolts). It will be near the entrance and guests will have to walk through it- the back is open and has burlap streamers.

Moonshine Still

Here is the moonshine still that I made for our haunted house. The rusty can is an old gas can, which incidently pours much better than those modern red plastic ones. The cone at the top is just made from posterboard and has a funnel tip coming out of the top. The "copper tubing" is some micro sprinkler line that I painted. The big 5 gallon jug is a loaner from a friend.

Modified Chainsaw

I never got around to buying a fake chainsaw that I could use in my haunted house, so I modified my broken gas chainsaw. First I took the chain off, then I made an extended blade out of black foam core board, painted the teeth silver, then splattered red paint on the side. I used a light construction adhesive to put the fake blade on. For sounds effects, we are pumping some audio clips from a computer into a guitar amp. It can be as loud as a real chainsaw if we want.
