We’ve started putting our decorations out but it’s in it’s early stage. Going to do a witch and cauldron set up, a cemetery with some fence I built, and we grabbed about 12 skeletons, a horse for a headless horseman, a skeleton dog and dog house, an 8 foot tall bastard and a couple of those big ass skeletons crawling out of the ground.
Tomorrow it’s gonna be gorgeous out so I have to do some repairs on some of my animatronics tomorrow and then will probably get the ball rolling with decorating.
So, some of the repairs I have to do is the control box went on this animatronic.
I got a new box but the wires don’t match up as it’s an old model, so have to splice some shit tomorrow to see if I can get it to work.
Great prop, and jarring as fuck if you’re not expecting it.
Another repair I know I have to do is on my pumpkin stack. Bought it second hand and got a fuck ton of rain while it was out last year to the point it stopped working. Gotta trace the short.
Another repair that I have to do is on this guy. One of his springs got deformed somehow so he’s not popping up.
Also have to see if I can get this dude to stand up as I don’t have his base. Might use rebar to see if that will work
There were a few other minor repairs I have to do, but I think those were the big ticket items.
LOL no. I think I uploaded to my website with some other sound FX I made. They probably got it off there.
I about 15 years I’m listening to di.fm. A song comes on and I start hearing some of my SFX. Then I hear my voice. Funny seeing where stuff I uploaded decades ago ends up.
Have a small display up on my enclosed porch with a scrolling sign counting down the days to Halloween.
Normally add a little something every few days or so to the display and the big guys start going out on the lawn the first or second week in September.
Also, the Home Depot closest to me has most of their shit out. The Chucky is very disappointing in person but that Plague Doctor is fucking sick. Probably will purchase the Plague Doctor and maybe one other thing this weekend.
