- A How To video on making an amazing garage door illusion for Halloween.
In this tutorial I demo the digital decoration Paranormal Passages from AtmosFearFX and a video projector to make a very convincing Halloween scene that gets incredible reactions from Trick or Treaters!
The effect is very easy to do and makes great use of any large surface of your house for your Halloween display.
The actual scene I am using is called Spectral Surfaces and can be purchased as a digital download for $10 from AtmosFX.

I love this effect, but what do you think? Is it convincing?
Nova Halloween this looks GREAT!!!
Thanks for the post!
Thanks - glad you like it!
looks great but how do you hide the projector?
was thinking of putting it in the car but then the car would obstruct the view
I will be hiding it on a table among other Halloween props. I usually put my projectors inside a styrofoam box (with ventilation) and cover the box with Halloween-themed cloth and accessories.
so can it be close to ground level? or will the keystone be off too much you think?i'd like to think of something more creative , maybe one of those nice fake pumpkins hollowed out in back to fit the projector in but it would be nearly at ground level
Great video showing off the projection. Where is the "how to" part?
It starts at 2:13
I understand what the person is asking lol they want to know how to project it outside? Is the projected outside? Or inside to show outside?
I agree
Okay! It's a pretty cool effect, but you titled the video as a _"How to..."_ guide, without providing instructions on *_HOW TO..._* actually do it.
If you went back it time with all the necessary items to build a nuclear submarine; and simply gave them to Christopher Columbus without any instructional guidance on how to build the darned thing, he wouldn't be able to do it.
Any chance that you'll provide instructions?
This is my garage without the projector.
i hide demons in my garage
Very convenient for Halloween. Not so much for other holidays.
Okay so... this how to, is NOT a how to. You are not showing how to use the USB? Don't most projectors just take the info off the USB? What us the purpose of the media player. Does the USB get plugged into that? So frustrating when I want to know how to do this... and tech stuff is assumed...
Would have like to have seen something about projector placement had hiding. Great effect though.
Thanks. Hopefully I will have the time to do some placement videos this coming Halloween.
I was thinking the same thing. We throw a huge Halloween party every year at our house and bought a projector for this but never could figure out how we should set it up.
Did you ever come out with how you place the projector?
Think I'm going to open my garage put plastic over the opening then project from the inside. Leaving a projector outside in any neighborhood is dangerously dumb.
Sure, makes sense.
I'm going to use black and white rectangular plastic table covers from Dollar tree.
Drew Pickett Great idea! Would love to know how it works when you test it out.
Not going to set it up until a couple days before Halloween because I park my car in my garage.
Got it set up. Got a piece of 2mil plastic from Wal-Mart for $3 that was perfect for this.

Why do you need the media player and not just put the memory stick into the usb projector directly?
You could also open the garage door, hand a sheet and shoot it from the back. Lot safer for the kids walking up...
Yes, this is what I did this year. Different video though.
Would this be possible on a dark colored (almost black) garage door? Or does the surface need to be white?
I'm curious how you hid the projector though, like I'm thinking of projecting it through my car windo onto the garage door and playing the sound through the ring camera? Would that work?
Can I plug in my USB directly to the projector to play it that way? Or I need the media player?
Most projectors allow you to use USB...matter of fact, that's all I ever use (going on my third year)
Were do u put projector the placement from within ur garage ?? Or does it have to me from outside on lawn or elsewhere? My neibors have some device they project from inside to be shown on outside of door which make it realistic no projector u can see or any device only images on garage door. Im looking for something similar .just imagine a tric or treater steling ur projector .omg. any suggestions
If i put out a projector like that then my filty neighbor Juliane and her darn cigarette smelling hubby will stiff me over this and then it will be at the local pawn shop i'm sure! Theyn will get spanked if this happens!
looks cool, but no way i'm leaving my projector outside.
Doing a rear projection this year with the projector in the garage. Good for both weather and thieves :)
I tried that but it didn't work. My garage doors are too thick for the image to be seen on the outside.
I used this same Media Player and I got a message (File not supported).
Does the file come with the audio or is that seperate?
Can you do rear projection?
What projector are you using?
Do you think being able to put your projector in your car would still work and shoot it through the windshield? I'd like to try it but I don't wat my projector damaged or stolen.
Build a box around it
I was thinking the same thing. How did it work out for you?
Paranormal Passage looks great on the garage door! Where did you place the projector?
Thanks! The projector is just on the driveway for this demo but I will hide it for Halloween.
Toil & Trouble's DIY did u put the projector outside they say not to do it
You can do the same thing to any wall.
Very cool. Unfortunately, if I left my projector out in the driveway it wouldn't take more than 5 min for someone to walk away with it along with everything else. Even I was willing to sit outside to keep watch, my projector wouldn't like the freezing cold temperatures. I resort to window projections, not as cool as this but better than nothing.
Thanks! Window projections can get great reactions too. Luckily we usually have pretty decent weather for Halloween, but I usually have a backup plan in case of bad weather!
You can open your garage and tape some cheap thin white plastic table cloths together then project from behind. This is what I did when I had a garage 👍🏻 works the same for windows.
@@amandagiese9218 I am in Canada. It's too cold inside the garage even with the garage door down, let alone leaving it up. The downside of living in cold country, can never wear skimpy Halloween costumes, best to dress up as a polar bear. 🤣
How do you hide the projector on your driveway. This is awesome.
I usually hide the projectors behind, under, or inside larger Halloween props (gravestones, tables, coffins, etc.).
Try and be a little creative. Bales of straw maybe.
I thought this was a how-to, not a showcase..
How do you keep trick or treaters from messing with your projector?
Reminds me of "A Nightmare On Elm Street" when Freddy is trying to come through the wall while Nancy is sleeping.
The first movie is a classic! The sequels unfortunately lost some of the magic though.
@@NovaHalloween Yep.
How did you set this up?
Where's the projector?
Dl all for free on torrents
Great job,...i think its brilliant.
Thanks - I can't wait to see the reactions this Halloween!
I use the atmosfear projector and the windows FX projector which seem to work fine,what’s your thoughts
AWESOME ENDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
💀👻🎃
Cool
Why do all these modern projectors go black before they show the next repat of the video? Is it just because they are made cheaper? My UltraProjector from a kickstarter 7 years ago was $180 and it only plays AVI files but you see NO artifacts when it repeats at all and starts showing the video immediately when you give the projector power. WTF!!?? I cant find any of these old ones on ebay either.
how did you do the last part with the moving light? the effect seemed to have no light of its own but there was a spotlight moving around and the effect didnt move with it.
Raeodor it’s part of the effect.
@@Jossuevaca yea I realized it later. I ended up buying this over the weekend. Looks amazing.
I loved the flashlight sequence at the end the most. Creepy!
What do you need that small media box for if the projector has a usb slot
Not if the projector can also play video files. However, sometimes there is a USB connection but not necessarily support for video.
Jezz im fucking tired to find a good effect to my movie project thanks that you're here
next video how to keep people from stealing your projector
Great stuff! Love it! Thank you for sharing! Given this video was made 4 years ago. Any buget projectors for 🎃 you recommend in 2022?
Seems a bit cheesy for an AtmosFEAR FX product. The bright circle on the door ruins the entire effect. Can't tell if its part of the program or a result of the projector throwing the image onto the door. Where did you have the projector? The effect obviously isn't a rear projection, so it must be front projected which may be why you are seeing the bright circle on the door.
Can you imagine pranking someone doing acid with this?
So what did you use the USB for?
The media player was used only?
Love it but you didn’t show how you did it???
When considering a projector, it's ALL in the Lumens when projecting onto non screen material.
you completely left out where you set your projector. not cool.
I have the same projector - how far away from the garage door did you place it?
Woot! Halloween is near and Nova Halloween is back! 👏🏼
Great to be back! So much to do and so little time!
Hahahaha awesome video. Spooky
This download is now $24.99.
OMG!!!! Absolutely FREAKING AWESOME!!! This is what I'm going to DO this year for MY BORING garage! It's ALWAYS mission Impossible. Thank you....I'm so excited now. I have a movie projector but think I'll shop around for a small inexpensive one just for this outdoor project.Thanks again. :-)
It looks just as convincing in person as it does on video. One of my favorite effects for sure!
@@NovaHalloween Hiiii ,Wanted you to know ....I did the paranormal passage (2018) turned out GREAT..some came back just to watch the effect. I am now hooked . This past Halloween I used 5 digital decorations w/my graveyard and it was AWESOME...kids & adults were afraid to come up to the house 😱😱 Once again some came back just to look at the yard & effects. Thank you again...it all started with your solution for my garage door. 👍👏👏💋💜
@@123thebasics Awesome! "Hooked" is an appropriate word to use - it's an addictive (in a good way) hobby!
I wish it had a portion in the video at the end where the material rip and a monster stepped out
I love it !! I want one !! 🕸🦇👻🎃🕷
Image if they actually came out of the garage
This Looks tOO Real. :0
Where did you get this video for the projector???
Atmosfx.com....has all types of GREAT videos...but they come with a price. Check them out.
So once you download it to the usb, does it plug into the projector itself in order to play the downloaded clips? I’m trying to see how to do this without laptop plugged in etc
Some projectors have a usb port to play video from a thumb drive. His didn't have that on his projector so that was what the mall black box did in the beginning of his video. It converts a use port to an hdmi video out.
Hey blaster- speak English?
Not much of a how to when you didn't show distance or placement, power-source, excetera...
Distance is about 20 feet.
Projector is an Epson PowerLite 2030: 1080P, 1800 Lumens.
In this demo the projector is directly on the driveway.
Power source is just a regular AC outlet.
DAMBBB...just over the top...
Stupid question can you use hologram projections as a security program to activate if you don’t type in a password on your wall when you get in?
I guess this would be possible - definitely not a typical use though!
Nova Halloween you should do a Security hologram prank if the security password isn’t inserted
How did u hide the projector? Is it in the corner?
It is hidden under a table with a bunch of other Halloween props.
How cool 👍
Does this come with the sound file already on the DVD or SD card ? I have been reading that some don't and I don't know enough to put the sound with the video.
Sound is *definitely* included.
I put a like on this video and it went to 666 likes.
:)
That's creepy! If I was a kid I'd be too terrified to ever come near your home! That is some next level stuff!
They DO have some child friendly stuff as well. I project the kiddie ones more so to the front of the house and the scarier ones on the side, so as to not scare the little ones.
Nice 😎
So cool. Nice video
Best type of projector to use
Soo awesome!!
Where did you plug in the USB?
He used a media player
Looks great, thanks for sharing. You don't use a screen/fabric/chiffon/curtain/.... but you project directly onto your garage?
That's correct.
when im using Paranormal Passage there is a border from my screen in projector. there is a square border, how can i get rid of that?, thanks
Hmm, that's strange. Is this an issue with your projector? Is the border there for other content?
Hi Nova, i uploaded the video so you can see what Im trying to say, thanks
ruclips.net/video/I9jkAHPK-lg/видео.html
Looks great! Im looking at projectors as we speak. Which Epson are you using?
PowerLite 2030.
@@NovaHalloween thanks! Im looking at the Epson Home Cinema 2150
What media player do you recommend? Nice video!
The media player in the video has worked well for a few years now. There is no real brand name, but all the generic ones on ebay are essentially identical. I think they typically cost about $30.
was that a backlit projector - that was so cool
Thanks. Just a projection from the front onto the garage door.
Nice!!
That is so great.
wow!!!!!!! i love this so much! what's great is that every year you could have something different! AWESOME!!!
Thanks! A different effect each year is the plan!
And every year Atmosfx comes out with new videos, this year alone they added like five other different scenes :) AND they have them for ALL holidays as well!!!
I got a high resolution BenQ projector and it doesn’t play sound like this, did you have to add speakers too? This looks amazing! Also do you ever have to worry about your equip getting stolen?
Yes, I added external speakers. Projector speakers aren't really loud enough for outdoor effects. When this is set up I'm generally outside and near any expensive equipment. Plus, I like interacting with the visitors :)
Thank you, I LOVE your videos and your smooth, calming, easy to understand voice. :))
Nova Halloween thank you, I bought a set of Yamaha outdoor speakers to go into the BenQ projector but can’t figure out for the life of me how to hook them up. I’m really bummed so I think for this year it will just be the projector (It doesn’t look near as good as yours does, mine I bought tulle fabric in black and it has a hard time projecting through it. (I have it set up inside playing all the AtmosFX DVD’s) just going to play around with it more after Halloween and hopefully will get it fine tuned. ;)
@@stormyg9169 Yes, part of the fun is fine tuning each year. Your visitors will still love it and next year you can raise the bar by adding audio :)
Every effect it's easy to create, but finding good location and hiding projector it's most difficult task for me. Especially outdoors.
Video on how to make a garage door effect with the projector inside the garage is coming soon...
Where is your projector set up?
In this demo it is just in the driveway, about 20 feet away from the garage. I will hide it among other props for Halloween.
Nova Halloween oh cool I love this thank you.
This is awesome and we'd love to use this for our news program in Japan. Where are yall located?
Sure, that would be great. We're in Canada.

My roof overhangs top of garage door about 3 feet. Can the projector be fastened under roof overhang, or is that too close?
tiger355 It would depend on the throw distance of your projector, but three feet seems a little close.
I could project down from the overhang, probably about 6-7 ft distance using bottom half of door.
tiger355 This could potentially work - worth a try!
Thanks, just trying to figure out a way to avoid theft.
Is your projector 3200 lumens? I noticed there are a variety of projector rating even in the high def.
I want this so freakin bad
It looks awesome in person - can't wait to see the reactions on Halloween!
Nova Halloween I go all out for Halloween each year and this will be perfect
Going all out for Halloween is the only way to go!
Love this.
Omg how did that do that
i suggest you to buy one from spookyillusion.com bought mine from them and it works so lovely im 100% ready for halloween, here is the link if u are interested: spookyillusion.com/products/spookyillusion%E2%84%A2-halloween-projector
what did you do for the audio?
Two tower speakers and a sub hooked up to the blu-ray player.
Nova Halloween oh I thought it said you used mini media player. Arnt towers and subwoofers visible?
Since I always have multiple effects, I use combination of players (blu-ry and mini-media players). For this effect on Halloween I wanted the sound to be as good as possible so I switched out my mini-media player (which couldn't be connected to my large receiver) for a blu-ray player (which could be hooked up to the receiver and speakers). I usually hide the speakers behind large Halloween props! For this demo though, the sound is coming from a set of computer speakers.
@@NovaHalloween were the computer speakers plugged directly into the projector?
3:00
Why can’t you play the files by plugging the usb stick into the projector itself? I think it looks excellent and most likely even better in person.
Some projectors have this capability, but mine doesn't. And yes, it looks even better in person!
Nova Halloween fair enough, I thought I saw a usb slot on the back of you’re projector, and that would save a lot of mucking around with media players and extra cables you wouldn’t need.
True, it does have a USB slot but unfortunately the projector does not have native support for video playback. This is definitely a feature I would want in a new projector.
Nova Halloween I am just watching videos on the UHappy U80 and the GP 70 UP projectors they both have SD playback and they seem perfect for these digital display videos and the price is cheap as chips.
Awesome - thanks for the tip!
This looks super cool, giving projection a go this year :) My concern with this effect is leaving my garage door open. We get thousands of kids on our block and I wouldn’t want my tools to walk away.
Thanks! The garage door is closed for this effect though, so you should be fine! Very jealous that you get that many visitors for Halloween - wow!
Awesome effect!
Great except you failed to show how you did this effect....................
Didn’t I see a usb input on your projector itself? Why did you need a media player?
