[@GeorgiaJim1]

Don't sell yourself short, Dan! That's going to look great when it's all done and lit.

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks pal.. I think this is one of those builds that will look amazing in the dark 😂😂. Thanks so much for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

[@jcjonk]

I like a lot the Frankenstein's monster movement but the body as you said needs adjustments, I'm pretty sure the final thing will be awesome! 😊

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks man.. yeah.. there’s a bit of work to do on the shape of his body, but I’m sure I’ll get it right when it matters most. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃💀👻

[@gregjohnson9776]

Don't be so hard on yourself it's awesome!

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks man.. that’s much appreciated. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

[@JamesWhittle]

That's awesome Dan! The kids will love it.

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks man… I hope they do. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃💀👻

[@barbarapond1510]

Great job Dan. Well done you, that is very fun. In the dark with your haunt that will look awesome.🐩🐩🐩🐩🐩

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks Barbara… just got to pull it all together now. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃💀👻

[@TiffanyEmber]

Dan! This looks brilliant! I think it's excellent! It's super spooky and super realistic looking when the monster rises! You've done an excellent job. I really, really like it! Excellent effect!

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks Tiffany. I’m really glad you like it. With a bit of perfecting I think it could look really good. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

I love to see that people in the UK are picking up Halloween. I found it really funny how you kept mentioning rain when it never crosses my mind. England is quite rainy I bet. I live in a particularly dry part of the western US and I wish we got more rain but I forget how much of a nuisance it can be.

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks so much. England is very rainy.. and most of the time I love the rain… except for at Halloween when I wish we had a climate more like what you must get. Oh well 😂 Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

[@paulfuryes203]

That looks great. I'm looking forward to seeing the final build. Have a great day, cheers.

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks Paul. Much appreciated. I just hope I can bring it all together when it really matters. Thanks for watching and commenting pal 🎃👻💀

[@Mister-jv6zq]

You're not giving yourself enough credit, this is awesome bro!

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks so much man.. that means a lot. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

[@ScareDad]

I am impressed you got that little fan motor to lift the whole upper body up. Best use of Christmas underwear yet! Great job Dan. I am not sure the simplest way to do it, but I would love to hear thunder when they hit the button and see some lightning flashes, it would really bring the interaction to the next level. That said, it is still great just as it is. I think kids of all ages will love it. Can't wait to see the entire scene in action!

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks bud… that’s much appreciated. Like you say, probably not the simplest way to do this, but I don’t do anything the easy way 😂… and yes.. Christmas underwear never had a better use 😂 Thanks for watching and commenting pal 🎃💀👻

[@alvermette218]

Dan you can put that upside down vampire bat monster in that open area as it would fit the theme very well that you are going for. By the way, love the Frankenstein you made and don't worry in the dark with the right lighting it will look great. Remember it's for kids...not Hollywood and they will love it.

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks so much. I thought about putting the bat in that space.. but its wing span is a little too big for that doorway, so I think I’ll stick with the reaper. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

[@roosevelthillscemetery]

Great use of the Jane doe prop I love him Dan!!!

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks so much bro.. much appreciated. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃💀👻

[@chrisg2419]

For what you're doing with it and need it for. I think it's going to be perfect!

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks Chris! For what I want to achieve with this guy, he will be perfect. Thanks for watching and commenting bud 🎃💀👻

[@House0fwax]

Similar to myself, you make more of an effort than most. Class work and very much respect. :)

[@HalloweenDan]

Thank you so much… I love creating spooky stuff.. it’s my favourite thing to do. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃💀👻

[@daydreamersanonymous7854]

This is awesome, Dan! The rate of speed that Frankenstein's monster rises is perfect. Great job!! 😊👍👍

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks so much Daydreamers. With a few tweaks here and there I think this’ll look really good. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

[@treatortreat]

I love that you create stuff yourself. Be proud of you, it's amazing! Just the silhouette of monster laying under the drape was very creepy. Did you try that movement, with him coverred?

[@HalloweenDan]

Thank you so much. It’s great to know my efforts and lacking technical skills are appreciated 😂 I did try him just under the sheet, but the motor couldn’t handle the weight.. though I didn’t try without the outfit on, so it may be worth a try if I can’t make him look right. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

[@madsboutfrights]

Dan, this looks amazing can't wait to see the finished product! Unfortunately, I can only do haunts indoors as I don't have a garden! Where are you based because I wouldn't mind having a look in the flesh tbh! 🎃🦇

[@HalloweenDan]

Thank you so much.. I’m glad you like it. I based in Cheshire, near Manchester. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

[@reginafetty6374]

I think it is pretty cool. It is fun watching others come up with ideas of how to accomplish their goals. I am not good at making animated props. Weather is always a factor for making electronics stay working. Where we live it could be rain or snow for Halloween season.

[@HalloweenDan]

It can be a challenge, and the weather here never lets us have a simple or straight forward Halloween season… but if it works out, it’s worth all the effort. Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

[@jamielovingallseasons8593]

Dan! I LOVE IT🎃👻 Your haunt it is going to be amazing.

[@HalloweenDan]

Thank you so much Jamie! I’m glad you think it’s good. I just hope it works when it matters. Thanks so much for watching and commenting 🎃💀👻

[@lemn8]

Hi underesti-mate😅! It doesn't matter how you did it. It's all about the end result. And the way it is smoothly going up and down looks really realistic. The irony you're using Xmas underpants to give the monster a wedgie that will take the whole season got me 😂. Really like you keep doing the DIY stuff. And the mask looks like a Ben Cooper which is really cool. Really awesome!🎃👻🧌

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks mate. I think it makes it sweeter that some Xmas underpants are now helping my monster to rise 😂😂 Thanks for watching and commenting 🎃👻💀

[@cindydavis1443]

Looks great! You are not kidding that it is finely balanced! I am struggling with a self stirring cauldron using a rotisserie motor and worry about it working through the night.

[@HalloweenDan]

I know your pain! Us home haunters eh! Always making things difficult for ourselves 😂😂 I hope you get your cauldron working! Thanks for watching and commenting Cindy 🎃👻💀

[@jimmyodinson9841]

Very well done. I'm very surprised you didn't use The Range hanging Frankenstein monster as a base?

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks mate. I thought about using the Ranges Frankenstein monster, but it was a little bit small, and I wasn’t that fussed on the face mould. Thanks for watching and commenting pal 🎃👻💀

[@jaboywiles1861]

Hey I just subscribed and binge watched all of your videos! One question, what did you buy to make that lightning effect lighting up behind the Dracula?

[@HalloweenDan]

Thanks so much.. I subbed back. Thanks for watching my videos, I hope you enjoyed. I’m planning on putting out a video soon to show what I used to make the lightening effect. I have Philips hue lights, and there’s an app that goes with them that creates spooky sound effects paired with light effects.. and I isolated one of the lights and repeated the lightening effect built in to this app. If you’ve got Philips hue lights (which I obviously do) it’s the perfect way to create all kinds of spooky effects. Thanks so much for watching, commenting and subscribing 🎃👻💀
