We made Life Sized Halloween Cemetery Entrance Pillars with Gate

How we made a huge Halloween Cemetery entrance gate prop. These life size columns or pillars were for a haunted house attraction located at Winchester Mystery House. They have sculpted foam faux stone pieces attached to plywood. Everything is finished with a realistic faux paint, aged and lightly rusted to give it that haunted look.

Harrison is getting so big! It's always great to see what you guys are getting up to and it's exciting to see you're still making props for the famous Winchester House. If you gotta be stuck living in California it's nice that you can have work that you're passionate about.

As a tip for something I figured out with my own props some time ago. To really make them blend in and not look "ploped down" when standing on flat ground anymore, I use bits of wood or other thin edge profile that I cover with dirt, leaf litter, sticks and small stones glued onto it. Also add a bit of flexible foam like eva before that to make it a bit more uneven and irregular. (flexible because it`s close to he ground and that way is less likely to get damaged, more robust) To really sell the illusion I also add bits and pieces or realistic artificial plants, like the leafs of artificial flowers and small cut off pieces from artificial grass. Colour them with a wash and/or dusting of spray paint to make them look less healthy as well as more dirty and it creates a wonderful illusion of being random bit´s of weeds that tend to grow at the sides of old walls or other construction. That way I create skirts/covers that just slip on the bottom after putting down the prop, and that can be removed for storage and easier handling. Depending on what the base profile is i either use pins or some matichning channel the profile can slide in to keep it in place. But if there is more vegetation on it I also use threaded inserts on the prop and a few small bolts that are hidden between the "weeds". That way I can create the illusion that the piece is actually part of the area and has been standing there for some time while making it look even older at the same time, as these edges always accumulate dirt, litter and weeds the older they get. It´s interesting how much such little details can change the perception. And the eara where the prop meets the ground is while not generally conciously looked at always something that tells people "prop". And with things like this gate that matches the sourrounding construction already, it can be so good that people will mistake it for an actual part of the area and not a prop. In my mind making props is always playing with peoples expectations and perception, and certain small details can do a lot.

@HollywoodHaunter 5 ай бұрын

Good tips! We have definitely incorporated those ideas into our scenery before. I guess it all depends on the look you're going for. For this project, if you were to walk the grounds of the Winchester, this is exactly how the bases look, clean to concrete. Thanks so much for the ideas and thanks for watching.

@HollywoodHaunter 5 ай бұрын

Most of the large props we build they keep. The pumpkins are kept backstage on their property when not on the front pillars. They just happened to be down and we snapped a picture, but the Winchester owns them.
