Great idea for a video! We will be watching this one. Always great to hear tips for home haunters!

You hit the nail on the head. What you are all doing is by every measure of the term " THEATER" . That's what a Haunt is . A large scale theatrical production. Nearly every point that you so well made...are ALL production techniques also used in Theater and film. If someone wishes to enhance their skills , then study theatrical techniques, film techniques, effects , and Magical effects. YES , many Magicians use props , and techniques that can easily be incorporated into a haunt. and especially old school effects. There are a TON of extremely effective techniques from as far back as the late 19th century and before that have been utilized by haunts through the years and because they are not common anymore, to today's audience are all new again . They will never see it coming . Go Look up the term "Peppers Ghost" . It is a technique used to make remarkable transformations, and ghosts appear seemingly out of No Where. It has been used for years by Disney. and requires only a pane of glass, a light on a dimmer , an actor and some creativity.

Can you do a video on your walls? How it’s held together, broken down, and stored. I’ve done the tarps and foam boards and you’re right, those don’t last or get damaged.

I’m planning on starting a haunt these tips were awesome thx!

This will be my first year doing a haunt so I’ll have to rewatch this during the summer! Great tips! :)

I'm 10 years old and have been doing haunts for about 2 years. I own 23 animatronics and my audiance LOVES jumpscare props such as the jumping spider and the hauntruss. This video really helped me out.

Thank you for the tip! Brick Thunder. I’m planning on making a spooky mansion for Halloween, it going to be really scary, I have my family to help me with this. Thank Brick Thunder and have a good day. Wish we can meet each other in person 👻🎃

Nice video!!!

These are awesome tips!!! thanks Brick I wish I had a haunt!!!!!!!!😊

Thanks for the helpful tips, last year was one of our best years just because of lighting and this upcoming year im building an entire barn facade so what lighting would you recomend? for the farm i’m only using two props; the BeastCraft Infected Swamp Monster and the Pumpkin Guardian of the Grave.

More videos like this please - this was great

Brick thunder do you know where you have your old videos like your birtdhay celebration and your mincraft videos?

Awesome video Brick!! Thanks for the tips. Can I get the haunt sliders link? 😃🎃👻

Awesome tips Miles 👌

Good advice. I love GOVEE for sure.

I don't do home haunts but love Halloween ! Always sad when its over :( Really enjoy all these videos and look forward to future ones always great! 🎃

great practical advice, I'd say even pro haunts have a take away in what you shared, great video. look forward to see what the next stage of haunting has in-store for you, we will have to make a trip to Chicago and check out the new Haunt

this really is helping me, this year i am getting 3 new animatronics so, im going to change the themes and stuff

Hey what if you have a lot of props and everything to make a decent first haunt but not enough space for a lot of different things my parents wouldn’t let people go into the back yard for now (I personally have a maximum of 150ft for a walk through until my parents let people go through the back yard

that's great thanks for sharing HFL!!

Also, how many animatronics do you have? I would love to see a video of you naming every single animatronic you have, and telling us where you got it.

🔥

lets gooo

Great tips! I don't own any animatronics but would love to add one to my graveyard. What do you recommend? I was thinking of a grave digger/ grounds keeper but where is the best place to get it?

Do you have any good budget animatronic suggestions?

What masonite boards do you use?Thank you so much brick for helping us haunters btw!

I would like to do my own haunt but I would need a lot of help

I love you so cool

I have a question. My family decorates our house every year. We don’t get many people coming to our house and I think it’s because we turn our porch light off. Most people assume you aren’t home. We added a purple porch light to leave on last year, and we still didn’t get many people. Any suggestions?

What would you recommend if i wanted to use sound effects for scare actors. Like monster noises?

Hey bt I've had eyes out for the cauldron keeper, root of all evil and twitching clown in your opinion which one should i get first?

How would you get people to come to your home haunt

When would be a good time to start planning and then eventually start the walls?

Please room tour

Lowe's has revealed their 2024 animatronic leaks. Can you do a video on that?

I have grim from spirit Halloween can you also do this with him I’m just concerned because everything is exposed on him

Can you only buy Morris props at Transworld?

How did you make the stalagmites in the cave?

For lighting are strobe lights good?

What is the haunt music?

I’m trying to get a professional prop but it’s just to hard

Can you do wanda webworth
