What did we do before Ebay?

Here are a few robes I got cheap on ebay. They are Headmaster Robes for the Evaluation Chamber. Each House is represented by the different colored robe. I am still amazed how easy it is to find things like this on ebay. Speaking of the Evaluation Chamber I got a note that the animatronic hat is underway I hope to have a few photos in the coming weeks. That's it for this weeks update.

What the heck is that?

Ok, so I collected all this junk from my garage I was trying to make something that would fit in the Potions room. You ask what is it? Well to tell you the truth I haven't a clue other then to say that any good potions master or Alchemist wouldn't be without one. So lets call it a Celestial illuminar. That sounds good to me. It looks very cool when lit not bad for a brass port hole some Christmas decorations, old tin cupcake pans and some lamp parts.

An extra bonus I got my junk drawer cleaned out in the garage.

Singing Statue

Here is a new project I am currently working on for the front lobby and ticket area of the Haunted House. This is Mort, he will be singing "Grim Grinning Ghosts". Mort like the other animatronics seen around our haunt is constructed based off a singing Christmas tree. These are original creations made by member of First Parish. Zoltan is the only exception to this coming from the far east.
I will post more of Mort as he is completed. I hope you can make it to our Haunted House on the Bedford Common. I will be posting directions in the coming weeks.

This is Ulric our local ghost host. If you wait and listen closely he will tell you about all the different events happening thought out first parish during the haunted house. Ulric is one of many of the animatronics you will cross in the course of your visit to the First Parish Haunted house.

Outline of some of the events in the works for this years haunt

Greetings here is another update for our haunted house.
This outline is very rough but will give you an idea of what to expect this year from our haunt.
Lower Level:
Deadford Dungeon of Doom: Scary Walk through.

First floor:
Spiders Den:
This is a great Kids area has lots of activities, Games, like Owl toss, Pumpkin stack and ring toss will entertain kids of all ages. The spiders den will also have a Crafts area where kids can choose from a number of projects. (Kids must be accompanied by an adult at all times.)





The Cracked Cauldron:
Offering refreshments for purchase.
Menu:

Coming soon

Concert of the Great-full Dead, Bedford's School of Wizards and Witchcraft Ghostly Choir. During the Short concert you will be entertained by ghostly apparition's visiting from our sister school in England.





Second Floor:
You enter the party by first passing through Zoltan’s the Great, fortuneteller lounge. Interact with the humorous talking crystal ball. He can see your future and it’s not so scary…

Next you are whisked into the evaluation chamber where you will be sorted into one of the four houses of the Bedford School of Wizards and Witchcraft.

Following your sorting you will take a crash course in magic as you walk through the Potions Room.

Then lastly on this floor you will have the opportunity to pass into the party through the Hedge Maze. Can you find the secret chamber that overlooks the Spiders Den?
