2009 Haunted House Walk-Through (Hellmouth III)

[MrXxpunkskaterxX]

damn freddy you need to go on a diet

[joshhenrylol]

hah fat freddy

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@4evaraven LOL!

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@SargentAveryJohnson Safety is always a major concern. There were guide ropes that, in case it broke, it would still not travel any further. :)

[jtinglorius]

troy how did you make the corn stalks stand up in your haunt

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@jtinglorius I used tan yarn attached from the ceiling. Ran it down the length of the stalk and tied it to the bottom. A few clear nylon zipties were used to hold it down the lenght of the stalk. The stalks could be "pushed" out of the way with no damage.

Pimp

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@Adam10018 Thanks!

[TheCamdroid]

how expensive was it to make this?

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@TheCamdroid I didn't tally cost of individual props that year. I would estimate around $100 for everything.

[sakume]

I would love to know how to make the falling wall seems like a great prop.

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@sakume I showed a lot more this year in the build vlogs this Halloween (2011). Check them out! :)

[chaisingjordan]

That's dangerous to have electricity running through that fence what happens when some kid touches it?

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@chaisingjordan Not really. Lick your fingers and touch both terminals of a car battery. Nothing happens. Why? Too much resistance in the body. This is the same method used by professional haunts across the country. Not dangerous at all, but a really cool effect!

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@chaisingjordan Not so, very safe. You can touch both terminals of a car battery and nothing will happen. The body has too much resistance. Thanks for the concern though! :)

[vaporizethis]

wat did u use for the sparks? it looks electric

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@vaporizethis Car battery and a real reproduction Freddy glove. Very cool effect, the same used at pro haunts.

[vaporizethis]

@HalloweenHellmouth thanks my friends and I r having our ow haunted house we're not charging anything its just for fun we want to up our effects so thanks

[vaporizethis]

@HalloweenHellmouth oh 1 more question do u connect 1 lead to the fence and one lead to the glove or both leads to the glove on different fingers?

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@vaporizethis One lead to the fence, the other to the glove. Weave pipe or rebar through the links in the fence in the top or the bottom to make sure the whole fence has continuity.

[catawba909]

Freddy let himself go.

[monee71]

[Txjane]

[RaquelTL]

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@RaquelTL =)

[R3DBrass]

I like that Freddy part how did you do it?

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@R3DBrass Check the daily vlogs over the next week or so. I'll be making repairs to the fence and will explain how it works. Thanks for the comment! ;)

[ThemeParkScareNews]

How did you get people to sponsor you?

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@ThemeParkScareNews Basically, just start talking to store managers about it. My haunt is free, but I request a food donation for the local food bank [Northwest Harvest], which is the "selling" point.

[TheMrsMetallica]

what are we doing freddy? freddy: scarying kids haha but still awesome haunted house

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@TheMrsMetallica Not a classic Freddy Line! Thanks!

[AAAProductionzz]

"Welcome to hell" dopeeee

great falling wall

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@AAAProductionzz Thanks!

[evilportrait]

Falling wall! That's great! And the cornfield looks awesome...

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@evilportrait Thanks! Working on the build this year (2011), it's going to be sooo much better!  Including the back yard this year! (2011)

[JHMDF]

You sound so different..... just they way you talked. You sounded so serious, I'm used to you sounding so lighthearted!! LOL

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@JHMDF LOL, yeah, I'm not as video shy any more. And... It's not the big day. I tend to get stressed out about details at the last minute. Haha!

[MrNinjalo]

crazy cool

[drummaster2001]

when you walk in the corn field looks AMAZING great job!

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@drummaster2001 Thanks! All of the stalks in the center were hung from the ceiling, so that the stalks could be "pushed" out of the way. Less damage that way! :)

[suzukimxrider1]

lol @ "oh shit"

[gr33nb3an03]

Hey me here I am doing my first haunt this year and u inspired me with the corn stalks. Where did u get them and for how much???? PLEASE RESPOND!!!!!

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@gr33nb3an03 I got the corn stalks from a friends garden. If you get them fresh, dry them by hanging them upside down. Make sure you do this outside, because they do attract MAJOR fruit flies! A can of Raid is your best friend. ;)

[gr33nb3an03]

@HalloweenHellmouth k thanks man ur a great help

[gr33nb3an03]

@HalloweenHellmouth k thanks man ur a great help an one more question wat is the website???

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@gr33nb3an03 If you take a look at my "Channel" on here, the site is listed. For some reason it won't let me list it in these comments but I'll try! :) HalloweenHellmouth (dot) com Happy Haunting!

[trips48]

how did u make tht falling wall?



[HalloweenHellmouth]

@trips48 Wow. This would be a very long answer! I'm not sure how many pictures that I took of the construction, but I might put a "How To" on the website. Keep checkin' the website in the next couple of weeks.

[trips48]

awsome haunted house. i was wondering what u did for the actual house. was it a big tent? trash bags? what was it?

[HalloweenHellmouth]

@trips48 Take a look at the website; There are pictures of the carport construction. Basic materials were aluminized exhaust tubing, black contractors plastic (6 mil), and LOTS of welding! :)

[HalloweenHellmouth]

Using a chain-link fence from scrap, I soldered every-other link with wire together at the bottom. I found a "reproduction" glove from the Halloween Superstore. Hooked it to the positive of 2 car batteries ran in series, and the negative to the fence! Thanks for the comment! :)

[hauntedhouser13]

this is soooo cool how did you do the sparks on freddy?
