Ooo lala! Guys that looks incredible! Reminds me of the cottage in Snow White (but of course used for spooky witches! LOL) Can't wait to see the final big prop! :)
All the work you all do always looks great! If I do a set-up this year I plan on utilizing foam sheets instead of plywood to help reduce the weight considerably.
What? I'm building a witch house facade this year as well! No doubt it won't be as cool as a Hollywood Haunter build, but still exciting. The roof-line on my facade is curved slightly less than yours, but still curved. I'm curious what your planning on using for roofing. I've bought a bunch of the corrugated roofing sheets for mine, but I'm worried it won't bend to fit the curve. Super excited to watch your progress.
Yours is going to be awesome!!! I think we are just going to shingle the roof this time. If you have a picture when yours is finished, post it on our Facebook page we would love to see it :)
I love seeing videos from you guys! My favorite part of this one....seeing Tonka sleeping with his tongue hanging out. I laughed so hard. I can't wait to see more of your witches cottage!
OMG....I can not wait to see everything completed. As always you both are so amazing. By the way.... like your pumpkins much better than the one at Disney lol.
wow...how did you get the roof front piece on top of the base? It looks really heavy. Don't you usually screw them together and lift as one piece??? Wonderful work!!!
Thanks, I step up about half way on a ladder and then lift up the wall and walk up the rest of the way to and set it in place. I want to say it's under 45 pounds or so. That's another reason we build stuff in small pieces for lifting. It is a little spooky if it's windy but once it's locked down with a clamp or a screw it's fine.
Are you gonna just dress as a witch or do some pneumatic or animatronic things? Btw, top notch as always! You remind me of the nice ghost couple from beetlejuice.
can't wait to see the finished product! gonna be amazing, no doubt! Halloween is coming to quick! hate when its over. My pet tortoise just tried on his first costume in the latest video I made. If u ever have the time, I'd love for you guys to watch it. (no worries if not, kinda used to nobody watching at this point.) also, will Dracula be making an appearance this year, for another DIY project?😉
You guys were so dangerously close to Haunted Mansion Holiday and you didn't even include a shot in your video! Shammme Hollywood Haunters, shaaaaammmme! :p
+Hollywood Haunter I suppose I'll let it slide this time, as long as you waited 2 hours. I guess it just gives you another reason to go back (to have some imagery of Mansiony goodness in your intro.) :D
Nags Dead Films woohoo that's a great discount! can't beat that price except Lowe's around us sometimes make us buy all of the pile or pallet to get 90% off. It's nice for us to pick and choose otherwise we get to much junk at our home. Is it like that at your location?
Hollywood Haunter ah true. That is how corporate wants it done. My store never has. We just sell it by the piece at 90%off. I've been there 16 years. Lol I just know how we break the rules.
Agreed suspenders are definitely GROOVY! I can't believe I'm admitting this but I used to wear suspenders when I was real young and sometimes I'd wear them hanging down from my britches while break dancing lol! Not sure if that was so groovy but I wore them proudly.
Briar Cottage we made the door full size to have the ability for a walk through in the future but we will just be using it as a display or to hand out candy through the door way or something this year cause of time.
This is gonna be incredible by the way...you are one of my first "must see" haunts this year...mine is first of course...I want to see if I actually finish...
Ohhhh fun is such a loaded word... Sorry to hear you are bowing out...but, you guys are having a baby...look, I don't really know you from adam...my mom uses that term a ton, but if ever a couple was perfectly suited for being just amazing parents...from the bleachers looking in...I could not be happier for you! Have a great Halloween just being such great people, just being blessed...and bringing such joy to so many others! :)
that's incredible you both are building a witch's cottage can't wait till is finish
Looking great!
You are artists! :-)
Britches used to be a store that closed years ago......I miss that place.

This week was SO much better! Thank you for asking. :)
wow...how did you get the roof front piece on top of the base? It looks really heavy. Don't you usually screw them together and lift as one piece??? Wonderful work!!!

You guys truly have a gift...thank you so much for sharing.

Oh No!!! Hope you had fun :)
Yeah I just went and it was really fun!
Are you gonna just dress as a witch or do some pneumatic or animatronic things? Btw, top notch as always!
You remind me of the nice ghost couple from beetlejuice.
Awww, we love Beetlejuice :) I think Jeana will dress up, she makes a much better witch than me ;)
can't wait to see the finished product! gonna be amazing, no doubt! Halloween is coming to quick! hate when its over. My pet tortoise just tried on his first costume in the latest video I made. If u ever have the time, I'd love for you guys to watch it. (no worries if not, kinda used to nobody watching at this point.) also, will Dracula be making an appearance this year, for another DIY project?😉
Thanks and great video looks like you have a great channel. You never know when dracula may come out to build more props muahahaah!
You guys were so dangerously close to Haunted Mansion Holiday and you didn't even include a shot in your video! Shammme Hollywood Haunters, shaaaaammmme! :p
FAIL!!! but we did ride it after a two hour wait. It was like the main reason we visited the park that night. Does that make it any better? lol
What. You did not use a FAST PASS!!!!!
+Hollywood Haunter I suppose I'll let it slide this time, as long as you waited 2 hours. I guess it just gives you another reason to go back (to have some imagery of Mansiony goodness in your intro.) :D
Hola
Lol I built a witch shack this year as well!
Thats awesome! Ya I can tell you ours won't be very scary this year, thought we would take it easy on the new neighbors
Hollywood Haunter Mine isnt either. We're not the super-scary kind of haunters.
staff to waiting for the video of pumpkin wanted to see you Spitting eyes
What did the shoes say to the pants?
SUP, BRITCHES!
Blahahahah! That's a good one lol!
I'm sure this has been asked many times, but what are your guys' day jobs?
We are freelance set and prop makers.
That's awesome!
75% off? That's it. At Lowe's we sell culled lumber for 90% and Playwood sheets are half off that are culled.
Nags Dead Films woohoo that's a great discount! can't beat that price except Lowe's around us sometimes make us buy all of the pile or pallet to get 90% off. It's nice for us to pick and choose otherwise we get to much junk at our home. Is it like that at your location?
Hollywood Haunter ah true. That is how corporate wants it done. My store never has. We just sell it by the piece at 90%off. I've been there 16 years. Lol I just know how we break the rules.
Hollywood Haunter your channel is awesome. I just finished glueing blue foam to the back of my store bought tombstones to give them more stregth.
you could make a great mask based on your bulldog! what a silly pup.
that would be a good one and it would be really cool if you could make it slobber like the real thing too.
I say britches all the time- belts are good but suspenders are - groovy -
Agreed suspenders are definitely GROOVY! I can't believe I'm admitting this but I used to wear suspenders when I was real young and sometimes I'd wear them hanging down from my britches while break dancing lol! Not sure if that was so groovy but I wore them proudly.
Hey guys, are people going to be able to walk through it?
Briar Cottage we made the door full size to have the ability for a walk through in the future but we will just be using it as a display or to hand out candy through the door way or something this year cause of time.
+Hollywood Haunter it's class.
Man...I picked a tough year to do witches. Should have done mushrooms or something...
This is gonna be incredible by the way...you are one of my first "must see" haunts this year...mine is first of course...I want to see if I actually finish...
Hahaha we are so in the same boat but at least we are having fun getting there right?
Ohhhh fun is such a loaded word...
Sorry to hear you are bowing out...but, you guys are having a baby...look, I don't really know you from adam...my mom uses that term a ton, but if ever a couple was perfectly suited for being just amazing parents...from the bleachers looking in...I could not be happier for you! Have a great Halloween just being such great people, just being blessed...and bringing such joy to so many others! :)
