Recreating a 60+ YEAR old vintage Halloween mask from Topstone Rubber Company
#vintagehalloween #halloweennostalgia #topstone #vintagemask #halloweenmask #spfx #halloween #topstonerubbercompany
The family who puts on the Bethel Pumpkin House had a master mother mold of the "goof" mask from the Topstone Rubber Company when they used to be in Bethel, CT in the 60s/70s. This mold is 60+ years old and we wanted to preserve some Halloween history!
We casted the original mother mold in alginate and brushed in some monster clay. We then had an exact copy of this vintage Halloween mask from Topstone! We were able to smooth the cracks and deterioration of the original mold. We molded the final sculpt and were able to cast this classic Halloween mask and recreate it bringing...

Figures the liberal administration woule want them off so the cartel can continue to operate.
This is SO cool!! Stumbled upon the channel and can’t say that I’m mad about it. Keep it up man, great content!!!
I'm so glad, thank you so much!
Fantastic video! Love Topstone masks, there are no other masks like them. Very unique and timeless sculpts. Great to see this design brought back to life. I have a bunch of Topstone masks made in a similar was as you show in the video. When the CT factory was being cleaned out a fellow collector rescued dozens of urethane masters.
I Love this. i love this SO MUCH! this is so unlike anything else on youtube... you guys are helping masks and ART live on from a Bygone Era... you're helping a Man's Artwork who is LONG Dead, live on... and i think that's a very beautiful thing.
so glad to hear this!
it was incredible to bring a piece of Halloween history back to life!
So impressive! Thanks for sharing your process and build with us!
@@crystalstrader9806 you’re welcome! Hope it helped inspire some spooky creativeness!

I loved how you added this skull into your halloween gate so i came here to see how you did that. This setup is so expensive and complicated!!😢 I think i will buy an animatronic from a box store and build it into a column. I really appreciate your effort and the $$$ put into your haunt!
@@serenababy6358 thanks for coming to check it out how it was made! That said, I may have gone a little overboard with it 😅
I’m definitely going to use these!
@@SixJaysHauntedHalloween awesome!
Both these guys are awesome! Really love the pumpkin dude. Crazy what some spray foam and chicken wire can make with some creativity. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, glad you like em! 🎃 It really is awesome to see what the haunt community creates with random things from the hardware stores. 🙌🏻
Excellent review. Im gonna grab some of these.
I’m so glad! Let me know what you end up getting 🔥
Great video. I watched it twice lol.
Amazing! Thank you 🙌🏻🎃
I like seeing your creative vision for both of your props . Looking forward in seeing more.
Thank you, appreciate it! Looking forward to sharing more projects and tutorials soon 🎃
Your talent is humbling, you truley create magical nightmare creatures
thank you!! I just saw your 2022 walkthrough video and your home haunt is long!
@@menaceproductions we have appt of room for growth and better design, this year we will just do a display, we have learned so much watching what you do
@@hauntattheroxbury totally feel that, sometimes you have to go smaller to get the focus you need. Ahhhh! That’s so awesome to hear, I’m so glad!
Very cool! 192 days till Halloween gotta get movin. Thanks.
totally feel that, I'm behind on my projects but I'm trying not to sweat it and remember to enjoy the season :)
Very creative! Looks fantastic. Now, I just need to translate your inspiration from my mind to my hands, which there is a broken connection.. lol. Need to try some of these techniques. Thanks for sharing
I'm so glad it inspired! hahaha, you got this...I believe in you!
So cool!!!
Thanks Heather! 🖤
They all look cool to me. Where do you find black latex? I like to corpse with spider web then when it's dry I spray a adhesive and dab it all over with cotton balls then dab more latex on. Gives a cool effect for sure. Now I feel like corpsing today! Lol.
It’s hard to choose a favorite right?! You can get black 407 latex online from monster makers and I believe Bity mold supply also sells it. It’s all about the layers! Spraying the adhesive to add cotton over the cobwebs sounds like a great technique 👏🏻
Definitely layering is good. Then all those textures pop when painting!
@@kristygleeson6979 agreed! Layers are key!
Very cool tutorial! Using this for my Ellie Williams cosplay
That’s great! Glad to hear it
great video! thank you
You’re welcome!
Super impressive build. It turned out great. I really appreciate that you thought about storage during your build. Its really cool that you were able to get foam that thick for so cheap.
thank you so much! I was also shocked at the price of the foam too!
Very cool.
Thanks!
Can I email you on some ideas as I’m looking to light up vertically. Black lighting for tiered scenes I’m finding it difficult 2nd 3rd and top tier( 28-32ft) high with out staging 150w-300w black light arrays on each tier.
That sounds like a tricky one, usually you’ll need to look at the pro series of a lot of those stage lights either in a spot or flood form to reach that length. Happy to brainstorm but not sure if my experience can help with that 😅
I'm looking for a 'smart' light/powersource (standard plugs) I can plug my lights into that I can program to change/on/off/fade out slowly so I don't have all the lights on all the time with too much light going on. Do you know of such a product that I could program with an app on my iPhone?
Its hard to find a light with standard plug that can be programed. Some of the GE sync, Hue, Govee might have pre-fixed settings in their apps (most will let you set and program but not to auto change). you could also try something like light-o-rama to plug lights into a program but not sure if they have a mobile app. Gantom lighting is another but sadly they dont have standard plugs
W👀W🎃😎❤️✋🏻
How does it do for keeping all those electronics dry?
They do work pretty well but I’ve had to cover the exposed back with some black tarp when rain got consistent and or heavy.
You must have been joking. Halogens are hot, and burn energy like the 20th century. Might as well use a stove coil for lighting.
I agreed however, I haven’t found a better looking replacement for simulated lighting
Do you have a. Esi on solar powered and batery powered things
I have a few solar powered flame lights I put in pumpkins at home but that’s about it. Wired and powered things I find are more reliable especially when the weather gets colder.
What are the lights you are using around 10:30? The green and purple ones?
Those are the “stage/DJ lighting” specifically the Chauvet Slimpar LED DMX lights
@@menaceproductions awesome thanks a lot! What did those run you? Did you get them on Amazon?
@@tracemiller1519 it depends on the size, they have small medium and large as well as “DJ versions” and “pro stage versions” I explain it more in this video but the DJ ones are between $70-$300 and the pro stage ones are between $400-$2000. I’d recommend going on sweetwater, PSSL and or Chauvets website to compare prices and styles, if you know what you want Amazon is also an optio
Really love this video, I’m a Halloween nut and I’ve been trying to explain to my mom the lighting and she wasn’t getting it until I showed her this!
Amazing! I’m glad this helped explain things, hope you’re getting excited for the season!
@@menaceproductions I’m so excited people think I’m crazy 🤣
@@tracemiller1519 it’s good to be crazy sometimes 🎃
Very nice engineering and use of storage space/hiding tech.
Thanks, appreciate it! 🎃
Awesome!!
Thanks!
Just wanted to say, it’s breathtaking! 🎃
Thank you, appreciate it! 🙌🏻🖤
Great tips!!!!! Please keep making these kinds of videos
@@laurahubbard9470 thank you, glad to hear it 🖤🎃
I love this!!
🖤🎃
I LOVE LOVE LOVE all the pumpkins!!! I am addicted to collecting and making them 🎃
Hand carved pumpkins are the best! 🎃
Thanks for the tips on lighting!!
You betcha 🎃
I can’t believe I’m just now discovering your channel!?! I love it!!!! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge 👻
Glad to hear it, you’re welcome!
Thank you for the tips! Very helpful for upcoming years.
So glad to hear it, best of luck on on your builds!
I think I’m gonna pull the trigger on doing this, I’m so out of storage tho it’s bad. My entire attic is filled with Halloween stuff mainly and some storage
That’s amazing! 🙌🏻🎃 However, I would say to plan storage that wouldn’t require lugging flat up and down am attic! Wishing you all the best in this Halloween adventure!
Link for those klab lights?
Here ya go: klabsoverstock.com/collections/lighting
Never heard of klabs overstock before, but now I'm so glad you mentioned them - those gobos are genius! I wonder if they'd fit over Gantom's miniature spots and floods...
I’ve been trying to create them for years with no luck so I’m right there with you! The LED housing and gobo is wider then gantom’s lights but I wonder if you could just add some foam lining to make it fit 🤔 That said, I’ve found it’s the measurement and size between the LED and the gobo to be the trickiest, it’s worth trying it though!
Fantastic all good tips thanks for sharing !! HFL!!
Glad to here it, thank you! 🎃
This is fantastic work. Great video and great advice.
Thank you! 🙌🏻
This is a fine review of these new products that I had not heard of before. Definitely will be checking out the Sensi LEDs they definitely look like it’s something that I could use. Very much appreciate the information.👏🎃
Glad to hear it! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
the yard looks Fantastic that's for sharing HFL !!!!
Thank you! 🎃
@@menaceproductions you have a facebook page ?
@@deoblo85 I do but it’s a little out dated, my Instagram is more up to date: @adamczarnik
For a sec I thought it said my name in the thubnail
What's lights are in the pumpkins?
The pumpkins on top of the cemetery columns are rechargeable LED flame lights 👏🏻
That’s what I was going to ask. Fantastic lights. Looks like lightning inside the pumpkin.
Yes please more tips and tricks and I’m a beginner Porch Haunter apartment living with staff that accepts my insane decorations
You betcha! Welcome to the haunt community, hope this season has been treating you well!
Looks completely awesome. New sub, can't wait to see this year's display
Amazing! Thank you for the kind words 🖤🎃

All the columns and fence bases re hollow so I feed them through there
