Some Halloween Props (Not Mine)

It is nice to know that some of the things I have made have inspired others. It is kind of cool to see a prop that I got the idea for from somewhere else, go on to a "third generation" of other props. Although I still don't feel that I'm up to the point yet where people would want to replicate my props, it is very cool and inspires me to do even greater things. Unfortunately, this year has been very busy for me and has seriously cut into my prop making time. I have only made one prop so far this year... but then again, I'm a last minute type of guy and have some things planned for the next couple of months. I think I have a pretty good theme for this year... be watching for a teaser video in about a month. With that being said, here are a couple of pictures of some props that people have sent me in the last couple of months.

This is another version of my "Grim" prop that is in the works. I am enjoying seeing the updates of this prop as it is being made. Looking pretty good, Brian.

Here was my version...

Which was inspired originally by Skull and Bone's "Kreep"... which can be seen here.

Here is a Cloaked Ghost, that is actually motorized so that it moves...
Pretty cool, Richard.

Here was my version...


...which was inspired by Pumpkinrot's Cloaked Ghost...

What if Office Space was a scary movie?

I had seen this a while back, and someone sent it to me again today. This is one of my favorite movies of all time, and it makes you wonder what it would have been like as a thriller...

Obscure Hollow

I found this blog today which has a lot of nice screen shots from several old horror movies. I am going to have to watch several of these movies now, just from looking at the pictures.

Hope everyone has a Happy Independence Day.

Strife Pics

Here are a few more pictures of my new Strife prop. I re-used the head and hands from the first groundbreaker corpse I ever attempted to build, which didn't turn out so hot. Actually, they are from this guy. The rest of it is made from a skeleton made from rolled up newspaper, which was covered in paper mache'. Most of the branches I used are from Mountain Laurel, which I have a ton of growing in the woods behind my house. I'm looking forward to building a few more of these this year to line each side of my driveway. Should be a pretty spooky walk for the kids to get their treats this year...

Sun Doesn't Rise Video

I can't believe that for as long as I have liked the band, Mushroomhead, I have never seen this video. YouTube won't let me embed the code here so you will have to follow the link at the bottom. It may not be your kind of music, but if you like scarecrows, crows, and pumpkins, I think you'll like this video. It has a pretty cool looking scarecrow that is tormented by crows, and a little girl who carves a new head out of a pumpkin and puts it on the scarecrow. Best music video I've seen in a while.
