  • Cool Santa Stuff for Haunted House

    OK everyone

    What cool haunt house stuff did Santa bring you?

    He gave me 4 - 40ft semi trailers so I can build a trailer haunt
    now I just need 2 more -- woohoo no more looking for
    a building to rent. They start bring them on Tuesday.

        Hey PH

        Some were in the IE, perhaps Bloomington off the 10 freeway
        I have a 1 acre lot in Bloomington where I can work on them in
        the off-season. If you want to come play sometime let me know.

          So as more and more good work goes into your four trailers they will be blooming a ton, right?
          That's why they are in Bloomington!
          (That wouldn't be Bloomington, Illinois would it? Bloomington, Minnesota?
          Bloomington , Transyvannia?)

                Gary, congrats! That's a nice gift! You must've been really good! LOL.

                Santa brought me gift cards to keep my makeup supplies nice and stocked.

                    ClusterOne, I recommend that you watch the DVD's with a pen and notepad in hand. Every time you see an idea that you want to use or something that inspires you, you'll want to be ready to write it down. :wink:

                      ...then be prepared to lose the paper AND the pen!
                      Begin all over again!
                      I do this enough, I finally remember the idea, for at least alittle while.

                        who gave you those? how well does a trailer haunt work? i often wondered. does anyone have constructions pics. of such a haunt?

                        are you very limited with your path when having trailers?

                          Hey Jason

                          I gave them to myself for Christmas.

                          They can be very effective if done right.
                          There was an article in hauntworld #1 and #2 on trailer haunts.
                          Trailer haunts videos can be found on the hauntworld DVD's
                          A trailer haunt design kit can be bought from hauntedvillage.com

                          I plan on video taping and taking photo's of my build for any one that
                          is interested.

                            Will you haunt/build video be rated "G" or "PG", or noted unacceptable for "Language"?
                            Hammer-head to fingertip and away those "G" ratings go!

                              Well- trailer haunts can be really good, and really frustating at the same time. They're great because they're made of wood and steel, and they echo really good. So when you crank up a chainsaw with one group, the next group thats in the haunt, 30 to 40 ft. behind can really here it.
                              But then theres the frustating part. With only an 8 ft. wide space to work with, you either design it where the patrons have to make a zig-zag left-to-right path, or make one long path on one side of the trailer, and the other half will be where the scares come from. It's real hard to get scares from both sides of the patrons because of the width of the trailer.
                              But- if you get trailers, you can leave the stuff all year round, not have to pay rent for a large building, and even move it around when you need to.

                              It's a good alternative to your typical haunt.
