Fog Chiller Graveyard Display Ground Fog Halloween Yard Haunt Demo
BackStandard quality video. My latest practical example of how the 48qt Igloo Ice Cube Cooler DIY Fog Chiller with 7 lbs of ice, a 400W Gemmy fog machine, a Pseudo Venturi inlet pipe and trash bag on the outlet performed in a yard in 60 degree rainy weather in a small open Yard Haunt graveyard display set-up. Once again the trash bag on the outlet was used to not just spread the fog out a little more but mainly to create back pressure in the chiller, slow the velocity and make the fog lay lower or linger more. The fog machine timer was set to 2 oclock on the burst duration dial and 30 seconds on the interval dial. Note how the fog lays low at the beginning of the night. Then the wind starts up and pushes the chilled fog to the side. It still creates a nice Halloween graveyard atmosphere. At 4:45 min shows a test without the trash bag on the outlet in heavy wind with two tombstones set-up to contain the fog and block the wind to a degree. At 6:25 I added footage showing the inside of the fog chiller set-up from a previous video to show what I was using in this one. Note that with a larger chiller and higher wattage fog machine the effect would cover a larger area more quickly. Video shot Monday Night Oct 22, 2007. See my other videos for more Yard Haunt and Fog Chiller how-to's. Note: When handling hardware cloth which is used to make the ice tray, wear work gloves. It can be sharp. And when constructing anything new with tools remember safety first. I may upload videos of prop construction descriptions that are a part of this small display. The background music is being played on an iPod shuffle inside a DLO Action Jacket plugged directly into a pair of powered Altec Lansing B-1020 6 watt computer speakers. The music is John Carpenter's Halloween, Carter Burwell's Blair Witch Project 2 soundtrack, Bobby Pickett's Monster Mash and Warren Zevon's Werewolves of London. The other SFX is from the Kmart Flying Ghost which was turned on and off for the duration of the tests. I put a video online that shows how to hack it to make it fly continuously. This display was set-up in a yard next to a very busy street so cars pass by continuously unfortunately. Also visit www.hauntforum.com for more DIY yard haunt ideas and discussions.
