DIY Halloween Flying Crank Ghost

at 5:17 am. Filed under DIY Hacks


 

For this Flying Crank Ghost project you can either get a kit, or simply follow the instructions to build your own.

“This project requires a fair amount of work, but with a few helpers (at least one of which has some woodworking skills), you too can have a ghost haunt a crypt for your Halloween celebration. As always, unless you want to be the ghost haunting the crypt, make sure you take all necessary safety precautions. The crypt was a great success. We had a steady stream of gawkers coming to check out our animated ghost, and she served as a considerable draw to our other attractions. We even had some souls who were brave enough to venture into our graveyard to get a closer look. ”

Depending on the whim of her builder, she even may speak, her eyes flashing with the words. Would you like to invite to her to inhabit the confines of your beloved haunt? If so, ready your lab and prepare to conjure her forth, for Victoria’s mechanism is simplicity itself and the plans for her construction lie below…" [via] - Link & instructions. […]

    I love this ghost. Where can I get one. A house not to far from where we live has one with blue eyes.
    Thanks!
