Thanks for the progress videos when you can... I think I speak for everyone here... we love seeing how you make stuff and the results you are getting. The Winchester Mystery House is lucky to have you guys make this for them... and how awesome it must feel for you guys to be requested to make stuff for them... what an incredible opportunity... to think... You're now part of the history of that amazing place!!!

"Do you think this is a little excessive" says the guy in a Goonies hat and Parrot shirt making Halloween props...ahahhaa. Awesome video you two. Love the energy between you two. Still the same as it has been for years.

I love this prop! The change that I would try to make would be to have the broken slab pieces move independently of each other. When you cut them apart, glue them to a burlap panel on the bottom that holds them together, but lets them push up and apart a little bit. Then on top of each of the cams, put a smaller plywood panel with a hinge on the other side, so the cam pushes the small plywood panel up and down at a slight angle, transferring the up and down to the broken slab but not the rotational force. With three cams set at different angles on one drive rod, I would expect the movement to look more organic without adding complexity to the motor mechanism. I love all that you guys do, and you inspire me to build new props every year!

Dang we love you all. You could release raw unedited video and I'd probably watch every one. Such positive energy. Thank you all and keep it up. Love the Goonies, lol.

I love the goonies outtakes and as always an amazing prop

It looks great! Looking forward to see it all together. It's a constant inspiration to see how you do things!

Back in my hometown in Mexico there’s a cemetery full of really antique tombs and mausoleums where there are several recurring hauntings in specific tombs one of them being that of a child that was afraid of the dark and his tomb is an above ground stone coffin with tiny holes for him to get some light because according to the story his little corpse would climb out of the grave because it was dark and they had to rebury him several times… There’s also a tombstone with a brass hand coming out of it through the stone with a similar story, that bell tombstone reminded me of such stories… 😃 If anyone is curious it’s called “Panteon de Belen” in Guadalajara and it’s full of haunting stories both from staff and visitors, I used to go there all the time to take photos during the day and sometimes I would go at night as they did spooky guided tours at around midnight ( The cemetery is no longer operating as it reached full capacity many decades ago, but it’s still open to the public)

GOONIES!!!! The tombstone prop looks good as is, no need to change the dimensions of the broken base. Everything you guys do looks great. Nice work.

Incredible

Looks great! The bell looks awesome! Can’t wait to see part 2.

Fantastic as always!

Love the work you guys put in all you do. You both make a great team. Thanks for showing us how you do it. It's fun watching your son's reactions to your work.

Fun, great video!!!

🤯mind blowing, I love it 👍🏻

Hollywood Goonies Love it. thanks for showing what you can. Always enjoy what yall put out on video.

When you two have a yard sale I’d love to buy some of your props. I wish I had neighbors like you guys, I’d be like what are they building today. I forget in this dreary world what a fun couple you guys are to watch.

After watching for 4 years its nice the misses stopped trying to sound like a whinny 7yr old talking through her nose. I love watching this stuff as my pop worked for universal studies for 22 yrs. Can't wait to see the house build as holloween has been canceled where I live in florida

Haha. You guys are the best.

I can’t wait to see this done! Amazing!!

Those out takes were freakin hillarious. I LOL'd for reals.

Always amazing work and your videos are so much fun as well. Thanks again!

Chris you really had me laughing on this one. Love the outtakes at the end!! Great work on that prop!

Such a fun video. the tombstone looks great. You guys are fun

Awesome

I Love ❤️ Halloween 🎃

OMG you guys are hilarious & Chris You definitely nailed it with the '' LION'' theme indeed. It looks awesome too. Thanks for sharing this with us

Another great creation.. Want to see it finished now ...lol// thanks for the inspiration.. peace

Awesome Halloween Graveyard prop , I think it’s great just the way it is. Thank you so much for sharing 🎃💀🪦🦇

Absolutely, well done, you two. Thanks for the update. I love the detail of the ornaments, the routing work and the bell. Very creative and gives the tombstone a upper class dead person resting place vibe 🤣 I can't wait to see the finished product. Also, love the outtakes at the end, you're both hilarious

Love it

Cool 😎

The stones look awesome and I hope to see the full thing when its done. Also, Fallowed your guys's rotten pumpkin video and my pumpkins came out great!

Super amazing video

I’m dying over Chris & all the Goonie references 😆 This is going to be the coolest tombstone 🪦

Late again, the heat kept me away 🥵 I totally remembered the breathing prop, it’s one of my dreams to have that as a part of my yard someday. Enjoyed seeing this too…. Now I want that 😉🧡🖤🧡

I love you guys, I hope someday soon we can see you guys do your yard again. Also, if I had that the ghostbusters fire house as a playset as a kid I would have never left the backyard

Hahahaha to funny and awesome project as allways

I want to see Chris dressed as Dorothy next time, although I would also be happy to see more Chunk impressions, lol! I can't wait to see more progress on all these props!

Always go more with something displayed at night. You don’t see as much of the details and subtleties get missed in the dark.

I suggest you disconnect the bell add a small pivot post ( like a see saw)centered on the bracket and put the bell on the end of one side and a string on the other that goes straight down and then put the mech below. Just a suggestion....love all the videos and content.

the goonies hell ya... just like beyond 1031 is doing the jeep

When you hit 100k subs, would you give us all the Truffle Shuffle. Great video, always a pleasure to watch.

ive started your 2022 WMH videos with this one, working back...when will these be installed? i live about an hour away and want to check them out - LOOK GREAT!!!

The metal bars around graves is something from area long past it was originally intended to keep so cold vampires in there graves...😐 although I personally think it was to prevent grave robbing...😐

Love the overall design and the plan for finishing! For some reason, as the build was in progress I thought the direction was going toward the broken stones would move similar to the breathing grave- that would be interesting too! I look forward to the next steps!

Another inspiring prop video! Maybe you've answered this before but what is your method for cleaning up all the foam bits from rasping and shaving? I'd like to do more of my own but the mess is discouraging.

Hey, we’re mort safe buds this year! I made one last year with the intent of having skeleton hands shake the fence, but couldn’t get the mechanics to work in time. But the bell is an outstanding idea!

Have you considered using a solenoid to tug the string, they are very compact.

Hey love your videos I have one question, what do you use for motion sensors. like the fountain for the haunted house what did you use for that. was it like a frightprops controller or something like that. that was my only question thanks

You all are awesome artist, just a thought if you had a hand coming out and could ring the bell by pull string.

You are cool 😎

I expect to see you dressed as Dorothy in the next video haha!

You folks need a pair of personal assistants who follow you around all day and simply video every moment of your life while you're doing this kind of stuff. That frees you up to do all the building and prop work while someone ELSE worries about all the camera angles, editing, voiceovers, etc. Nice work. Can't wait to see the installation at Winchester! Happy Hallowe'en!

This looks fantastic! I agree that there has to be a bit of fantasy. The story behind this is horrifying and such a great idea for this grave! The lonesome, unheard bell is sad and terrifying and is a perfect Halloween haunted item. I love this! Way to go folks! Keep up the great work! ;-) ps: PLEASE don't dress like Dorothy, Chris. LOL

Have you guys considered a electro magnet for the bell?

The bell cord could extend directly into the broken part of the grave - as if the hand that's pulling it is still inside........

🎃🕸🕷🎃👍

I was gonna ask how you were putting fiberglass right on the foam at 1:47 but you answered my question. But I did see you using 3M 77 on the foam. Doesn't that attack it as well, or is it not much of an issue if you don't lay it on heavy? Awesome work, by the way!

What if the bell sounds like it's ringing but you don't see it move? Would that be creepy enough or do you think you need the bell to move to sell the idea?

I dont think its too cartoony at all. A little overdone is always needed for halloween stuff so people notice. People go to real cemeteries for free. They're willing to pay to see the stuff we all do.' And I was the scarecrow in 5th grade, so lets do this thing

I think that to be effective as a haunted attraction you have to go bigger than what might be considered "realistic" or it just will not have the same effect for the viewer. I also think your creations are built so well that they could handle the elements here we get during Halloween. I'm going to suggest you test them all here before they go anywhere else just to ensure the strength is there. I'll send you my address.

I vote Dorothy!

Meh. I was expecting a view on what I does the whole time, all I got was him goofing off.

Did you see that Nerdist featured you yesterday? I tagged you on Instagram.
