[tinaw1969]

That's great!!

[iheartu2luv]

oh. hell. no. haahahha

[poeticphantom]

how do you get your props to trigger the sound effects, and is it all powered by the same?

[gavush]

@poeticphantom you plug the motor, light (strobe light or spot light, whatever) and the power supply for a pair of computer speaks into a motion detector floodlight thing turned to "test" and have an MP3 player hooked to the speakers on "repeat" so it's always going. when the flood-light thing turns on, the sound turns on. You can remove the light bulb holders and replace them with an indoor extension cord w/ the 3 outlets on it.

[commentmutant]

@gavush What school did you graduate from? holy shit.

[gavush]

@commentmutant it's nothing you can't learn from the halloween monster list website

[mouse264]

Oh, come on. Haven't you ever seen a really old war vet who's missing his legs trying to dance?

It's hardly polite to call them props.

[kyore789]

that is fucking bad ass were the hell did you get it?

[theagemon5]

if i was outside in the night and i saw this shit i would have a hart attack

[imagothicgurl]

when i was in first grade, i went to a house that had half a "skeleton" "crawling" and i was like "LOOK MOMMY! THAT'S SO COOL!" Then in second grade, i went to the same house, and i didn't want to go up to the door!

[gavush]

hey folks, I've made a better video of this prop with some "inside information" type shots and stuff. look through my videos, it's in there.

[TheFilipDragon]

[MrROCKDRAGON]

[darryldgf]

Me too. I found those gloves in the complete zombie costume.

[littlemexicantheif]

how much is that engein i was thinking about making that

[backstreethobo]

it seems good but sound sux

[gavush]

come up with a better sound file for it and you can email it to me. I'll load that onto the mp3 player and we'll try it out for this year.

[MrRobone]

@gavush Did you ever find a better sound file? I'm having trouble finding places for decent sound effects.

[gavush]

@MrRobone I went with something else last year, I can email it to you if you like. send me a note: vw underscore nick at yahoo dot com.

[MrRobone]

@gavush Yes, please e-mail me what you have upgraded to. If there is a good place to go and download sound effects, I'd like that site too. Also do you have a site outlining the construction of your prop? I fully understand the mechanics, but seeing what's under the cloth would help me not have to reinvent it. Thanks.

[gavush]

@MrRobone you should be able to find several tutorials on the halloween monster list (google it) I have not seen anything in my inbox unless it went to spam - what username should I search for?

[gavush]

it's a vw windshield wiper motor wired to low speed setting

[creepyh0ll0w]

what kind of motor did you use? the one my husband built uses a rotisserie (sp?) motor and it doesn't move quite as fast.

[FrightProps]

definitely one of the better grabber videos on the internet

[TheBLOODYLounge]

looks great, luv zombies and wanted one that would move but not crawl around too- so that might work :)

[magic8168]

i seen one of theese at the mall.... but it actually crawled

[adam12boy]

you saw a zombie!

[gavush]

I built it. google grave grabber prop.

[basballcarn]

how can you send me the directions? i would love it cause i nedd some props

[shakes53]

I think it whould be slower adn the hands should be on the ground more

but that is awesome

[elay2433]

Nice. I made one for my 2007 haunt. Turned out pretty nice.
