Go to Dollar Tree and buy plastic skulls. Cut a hole in the skulls and fill them with mortar mix for fireplaces. Let sit for three or four days and cut them out of the plastic skull. They will need to cure for a few more days. I made ten a few weeks ago for just over $20. I'm making ten more this weekend. It's too easy. You can also use a roll of paper towels as a wick and saturate it with kerosene. If you cover the skulls with hand sanitizer fire will dance over the skulls.
@Skykiller - Don't they need to have some kind of a hollow space in them? Have you used yours? Do you have a gas firepit, or gas? Does one bag make 10 skulls? Has anyone bought them from you? I guess I'll have to wait til next year to get the plastic skulls, since Halloween is over..dangit!
April Manttari-See I got 8 or 9 plastic skulls for around $10. I used mirror mix for fire places. I made four batches of skulls. Several bags of mix. I arranged mine in a circle and stacked them three skulls high. I put a roll of toilet paper in the center and soaked it in kerosene. The roll acted as a wick and it burned for about two hours. I didn’t take pictures but it looked very cool. Next year I’m going to get a “bag of bones” from Walmart and try to make several other bones. I think I may have spent $30 altogether. Just experiment and have fun with it.
@DarthAzrel - I think rich people don't like to get filthy, that's why they have GAS firepits, so they don't have to work at it! And ~$1000 for 15 skulls (as in the video)...?! Aw HELL naw! I think I'll make my own & try my luck with an "authentic" fire (non-gas).

How did you make them
Can i do that with a Wood -Fire ? Can i use the Skulls more then once ?
Do you have skulls that can be used in a NON-GAS firepit?
yes, these ones can
All it is is fire resistant concrete. Make your own
How do I buy these? From where?
Amazon has them $65 a skull...but so dang awesome
Not very clear how it actually works. Do they burn on their own or do you stack them around a working fire. Also $65.00, is that $65.00 for one skull?
you know those fake logs you see in fire places? thats what these are. and yes.... 65 bucks each
how do i purchase these?
Me that’s me
This tutorial is only for those filthy rich people that can afford to buy a dozen skulls at $65 bucks a pop... Otherwise.....
LOl why you even here then?
