This just posted in our Discussion Forums by BTH. This is a great display of Animatronics by Home Haunters!

I just purchased two more masks from the same guy who sold me the three other ones. One of them is on my Hitcher prop. Anyway, I was chatting with him about what he’s been doing for this Halloween and he’s creating a five piece band. Here is the mechanism for his violin player. It’s fantastic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u255eAJ-qzw I’ve really enjoyed visiting with this guy. He’s also created a prop from a garage door opener that I think is really cool. Here is that link. It’s buried in his haunt video somewhere. Actually it’s 2:38 into this video. Take a look. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG1Ujduw4Ww Anyway, I just wanted to share with all of you about this guy in Michigan. His name is Gary Loomis.

- Saturday, July 12th 2008, 5:00pm.
- Gilbert, AZ. Email me offlist for exact address

We will be making those pesky Disney inspired LED Fireflies that is in such high demand! If you guys want, I can also bring my trash can chiller to demonstrate that. Or, if you have any other suggestions, I’d love to hear them! MARK YOUR CALENDARS! Please RSVP by voting in the forums so we know how many people to expect to attend, and I know how much BBQ to make Please bring some sort of refreshments, snacks, chips, etc. Post the item you are bringing so that we don’t duplicate too much. I will post the materials we need here this week- so you’ll have time to order/buy them before attending. You are expected to buy your own materials for the M&Ts. Please check out the Discussion Forums for all the details!

See you there!
