Nicely done! Simple and effective. The movement from the strain on the PVC pipe is quite ingenious. No motors, no electricity, just mother nature to bob these guys around. Love it!
Ugh, now I have to make these. lol. I swear, nothing beats a home-made prop. You just can't get that feeling from cookie-cutter props from the big haunt store. I love that you build things using commonly available products. You also have an easy speaking voice. This makes it very easy to understand what you're doing. Thank you for sharing your talent with us!!
@@StiltbeastStudios Yeah that's what I plan to do. It's amazing how well the bobble in a gentle breeze. I want to run some wire up to the heads to control LEDs and a speaker from my haunt controller. I plan to use a motion sensor to trigger them when someone walks by hahahahaha. I love scaring people.
The technique to make the hands alone is super valuable and adaptable (and inexpensive). Hands with this much character to them placed in the right spot add so much to a figure to make it more than a stiff lifeless mannequin/scarecrow. Thanks so much for sharing.
Finishing my third dementor and happy to add the following tips. Hands: Don’t go anywhere near the fingers with a high temp glue gun. The glue will melt the backer rod fingers when you try to use it on the joints. Low temp gun worked better but still opted for black electrical tape on a few joints. Also, as I starting rolling the fingers I was surprised how long it was taking to create just one finger tip. As a result, I grabbed my heat gun and created a realistic finger tip in seconds. Dementor outfit: I found that adhesive spray and a glue gun worked better than just the spray. The outfit would occasionally separate until I reinforced with glue gun. Dementor head: This may be controversial but I wanted to add a little more pizzazz to my upcoming display and when I realized my dementor face didn’t turn out as nicely as Allen’s did I committed an act of heresy. That’s right, I bought masks on Amazon and love the Dementors even more now. Although, I suppose they are no longer Dementors now. It’s like a Dementor did the nasty with another monster and I now have their love child for my next Halloween display. I also made a few other changes that I cannot discuss because I want mine to be awesomely unique. Thanks for the fun project Allen!
I used almost exactly this method and attached to to a backpack and created a 7' tall grim reaper. But I used the tube insulation as ribs. One arm was on a puppet post and the other was the actors hand. The hands were simple skeleton latex gloves. The skull head I put on a dowel that was attached to a hat so that when the actor inside turned his head the reaper skull would turn too. So the actor could reach out and articulate the arms and one being his could actually grab at people. The only difference is that I used a loose muslin draped over the rib cage so the actor could see through and painted the ribs white and other visible bones.
Innovating to give the illusion on the cheap... I friggen *love* these videos of yours. Thank you for continuing to share at all the levels so everyone can have some fun. It's obvious that you're doin' what ya love. That's the best life. You must be the only content creator that replies to every comment, too. The world could use a few more of ya, brother!
Thank you once again, Alan! I love the fact that every part of this is easy but so effective! These are better than the ones you can buy for so much more money and they even move better (so creepy) thank you so much for sharing your talents. I really can’t wait to make these. You are the Haunt master!❤️🤘🏻🎃🤘🏻
Incredibly easy and cost effective making these! Infinitely better than mass produced, big box store choices! How lucky you are to have been able to use your creativity as a job *AND* you have the puppers with you at work! Soooo jealous! 🤣🤣🤣 Keep the ideas coming, please! By this time next year, with your videos, my Halloween yard will be the scariest for miles around! THANK YOU!
Question. Where do you find room to store all the cool props and masks you make? I used to love making my own props, masks and costumes, but I ran out of room to keep it all, and I found that things started getting wrecked and eaten by mice Mice freakin LOVE foam for their nests :(
@@StiltbeastStudios I have cats! I have 6 cats! LOL. And they are all good mousers, but here in southern Alberta Canada, the last few years have been extremely bad with the mouse population, and even all those cats can't keep up. I made my husband a costume of "the red pyramid (pyramid head) from silent hill, and I put 8 inches of foam board on his shoes to make him very tall. I found out the mice got into the bag where I kept them, and have eaten about 50% of the foam away. Time to call an exterminator I think. Thanks again for all your hard work and sharing your ideas with us. I love your imagination.
I used this idea to start upgrading my hanging ghouls that I've had for years and I love it! I had an issue with the 1/2" pvc as the next morning he was lying in the grass but once I shortened the post a bit more I was good.. off to upgrade more now! Thanks again for a great tutorial.
Dude, I friggin' love to watch you create! You think it's silly but you don't understand the terminally uncreative. Your show is open handed magic to me and you are the Grand Poobah! Thank you for being so giving.
Do you have a supplies list linked/written anywhere? I’m having trouble finding the weed blocker fabric at a not outrageous price 🙃 and just a written out list of the items used would be really helpful! Also, thank you. You’re helping me make my husbands dream of a Harry Potter Halloween come true.
Im afraid I dont have a list of materials, but you could make one fairly easily by watching the video and making a list of what I use, its more work but it also will help you understand why I used what I did and allow you to make substitutions confidently. I hope that's acceptable.
You are amazing! I am new to the channel, and now I am addicted!!😂😂 is there a way you can put the supply list in the cments? That would be super helpful! Thank you, and keep it coming!!!
I normally don't do that. I think its easier if you are going to make one, that you watch the video through and write down what you need, then you have a really good idea of what can be substituted and such. if there is a list then not getting the right thing feels like a much bigger thing than it is. seeing how its used as you write it down allows you to insert materials you are familiar with or have on hand when they would work just as well. It would add a bunch of time to do a list for each video and I feel the organic list creation is the way to go. Sometimes I release lists and extra notes to patreon if they are available. Hopefully I can get AI to look at old videos and make materials lists in the future.
Wow! this is the first time i have watched one of your videos. i LOVE it!! you are great at taking your time and explaining everything so clearly and simple. GREAT DIY instructions!!! thanks!
I can totally see these mounted in our graveyard so that the mount posts are hidden a bit by the tombstones we have and some green light being cast on them. Thank you for the idea!
Literally the only thing I would have done differently would be to either make the cloaks longer, or add some very thin black flowing material to give them more of that ghostly slow motion appearance that they have in the films.
@StiltbeastStudios I absolutely will, i love your work man and one day I will attend your haunt. If you ever want to rent out a hearse or two and need a scare actor let me know.
Very clever and super creative!!!! I could even see putting a strobe light underneath. And if there was some good wind it would be moving in all directions. Because they are elevated and have flexible movement I could even see ghosts with tombstones underneath or witches with a fire cauldron. I love that these are in the air. The Dementors however are pure genious. Thanks!!
@@StiltbeastStudios Oh sorry! All the pipe insulation making the body, and then feeding the arm through, it's similar to a balloon sculpture. But this one won't pop!
Loved making mine. A few snafus - had some adhesive that didn't want to fully dry. I put mine out in mid-sept. Warm/hot late summer days bent the PVC so that they stopped floating. I inserted rebar into the PVC which was great - until the frosts of October came and made the PVC pipe brittle and ended up breaking. Thinking I will put some sort of highlights in the draped fabric, and maybe stronger spot lights this year, otherwise they disappear in the night. Changing the landscape fabric to a iridescent sheer makes for some cool ghosts.
yeah even tulle fabric over this makes some great ghosts. Also you can use thicker pvc to combat the sun bending- Im in TX so by the time it gets cold enough to get brittle Halloween is way over.
Great video! I enjoyed your efficiency and technique. It will take me longer than your video to find any one of the materials needed in my household…I have them all, somewhere ;-)
Though I'm not a haunter, it's always fascinating to watch you work. Your creativity never ceases to Amaze me, Allen. It's interesting to me to see how things are done ... even if I have no intention of ever doing them myself. 😉
this really needs its own video there are so many differences- and which one is the strongest depends on what you are gluing really, the best for plastic is not the best for eva foam or for fabric. look at this site- glu-stix-online.com/collections/glue-sticks
Would you happen to know how these would hold up in stronger winds? Or how would you reinforce them more for heavier winds/storms??? TIA, love these!!!
There are two ways to reinforce these for heavier winds. This first school of thought is to actually reinforce them. Spray the fabric with Flex Seal so it has a thin rubber coating and is more durable and thicken up the pipe they are attached to so they sway less in the wind. The second school of thought is to us reinforce them. Instead of using landscape fabric, use tulle fabric. Yo’ll have to get more of it and punch it up more for it to show well but it is so loosely woven that air moves through it easier and it’s less affected by the wind.
@@StiltbeastStudios thank you those are awesome ideas!! I was thinking if I use bed liner spray on the fabric to weather it and weight it down a bit but would probably have to have a thicker pipe of course to reinforce that. What do you think??
Just love these guys, I am sure my hubby and I can make these even though we are ancient and move pretty slow. Thank you for making these tutorials, you are very creative !!! Halloween is our favorite holiday and will be decorating as long as I can. Thanks again.
Good Grief!!! that was such a teaching video! loll I loved it ,step by step ,your fantastically Halloween all the way ! what fun !! you hooked me I subscribed 🤡
wouldn't a hot glue gun with low temp be a warm glue gun? ;) love this project. I showed it to my wife who LOVES halloween.. guess what I HAVE to do today?
Is there a breakdown/list of all the materials needed aside from the info cards in the video? Looking for an easier checklist of what is needed to follow.
Hey Allen... met you Friday opening night @Dark Hour... revisiting this video and have a question... how well will the hot glue and pvc pipe hold up in the Frisco Texas sun and heat? IVe had issues with props before since we have moved here. Also. DH was AWESOME! Thanks again.
here is something you might not hear a lot- consider brighter props, you it will be dark, just dust a few with a light color of spraypaint so they are more visible in the low light conditions. Its something to consider- but new LED lights can be pretty bright.
Believe this is my first channel to subscribe to after years upon years scrolling youtube (im 44 fwiw). In simple words, you're f#&@+ng awesome dude. Keep the content coming!!! Cheets!! Edit: that dude down there v v v v said it better than me.... i agree with everybword ofnit.
I’m halfway through making my second dementor. Going to get them set up tomorrow, and I oddly want to show you. I’ve made numerous things over the years, but not once did I want to show the original creator. How can I share what you’ve taught me?
Thanks for this tutorial, made one tonight. My wife's one complaint about it is that it looks too much like paper (cause it basically is lol). What can I do to i guess resolve this if any, aside from adding a layer of bed sheet.
I've made two of these and unfortunately they just did not work as well as yours. My hanger wire won't bend through the foam so the arms stay pretty straight. They also aren't heavy enough on their own to be anything other than straight up on the PVC pipe so I had to weigh them down with semi-filled water bottles.
0:33 Hi! This is perfect for my Harry Potter Halloween theme. I also want to make Tom Riddle’s tombstone for my yard. What fabric would you use for the figure guarding the stone? I can’t attach a picture, but I found pictures on google.
Question, can I use a piece of rebar in the ground then slip the 1/2 pvc over that instead of a tpost? I would assume you could just wondering if you have tried it. Maybe at a slight tilt
1st time watching you, wish I seen these earlier...Omg these are fantastic, absolutely love them, I make my own stuff but these just top them all...thank you so much for sharing..I defo have to give these a go...your amazing
Also did you brush paint the styrofoam heads? Mine melt with spray paint. My kid is a big fan btw! Always wanting to make your creations. Thanks for all your work!

And they'll last longer than commercial crap. Also if they do break, you know how to fix easily.
Im sorry I made you work lol- you can make reapers or ghosts this way was well if you prefer them, just change the head up and the fabric color.
@@StiltbeastStudios Yeah that's what I plan to do. It's amazing how well the bobble in a gentle breeze. I want to run some wire up to the heads to control LEDs and a speaker from my haunt controller.

Love the bobing ,just brilliant
bobbing is my favorite of the motions- second is swaying. dem ghosts doh
This is great! I'm going to replace my old yard guardians with these this Halloween!
how did you make the yard guardians?

awesome! they do look like they are floating!
"Now the noodle arms and fingers are on, you are going to feel tempted to play with it... DO NOT!" 🤣😅😂
DO NOT!
Why?? I wanna play with them. What is the worst that could happen??
Great job as always. It wld hv be cool to see them with glow in the dark eyes.
yeah or LED eyes!

Are there different strengths of hot glue, and if so which it the strongest?
this really needs its own video there are so many differences- and which one is the strongest depends on what you are gluing really, the best for plastic is not the best for eva foam or for fabric. look at this site-
glu-stix-online.com/collections/glue-sticks
I love Dementors! I've built four!
this has all the details- been meaning to do this for a while.
Amazing as always. Your creativity and tutorials are spot on! Thank you oh master of spooky shit!
Im glad you liked the videos, I appreciate you.
Currently trying to finish mine, what a great tutorial!! Keep them coming!!
Awesome, Go make stuff!
This is a must build for this year. And bonus, it won't bust the bank doing it. Love love love it.
Cheap is my favorite color.
Would you happen to know how these would hold up in stronger winds? Or how would you reinforce them more for heavier winds/storms??? TIA, love these!!!
There are two ways to reinforce these for heavier winds. This first school of thought is to actually reinforce them. Spray the fabric with Flex Seal so it has a thin rubber coating and is more durable and thicken up the pipe they are attached to so they sway less in the wind.

there is one every week!
I've made several of these for my front yard, and they are always a spectacular hit. Thank you so much for these fun tutorials .
Would you sell any of your dementors?
Thats awesome!
Dammm those are Friken awesome
make you some!
I love them👍
Excellent!
Thank you!
wouldn't a hot glue gun with low temp be a warm glue gun? ;) love this project. I showed it to my wife who LOVES halloween.. guess what I HAVE to do today?
if you touch it, it still feels dang hot lol.
So cool ❤love them
they have strong feelings for you as well, but they want to remain friends.
This is amazing! What kind of pipe did you use to hang them? I couldn’t hear in the video
Half inch PVC pipe.
Ok great! Thank you! Making these tonight! I appreciate your creativity!
Is there a breakdown/list of all the materials needed aside from the info cards in the video? Looking for an easier checklist of what is needed to follow.
Is that fabric flame resistant by any chance? I know that is a tall order but I am hoping.
landscaping fabric is flammable. You should avoid using landscaping fabric in areas where an open flame will be present, such as a backyard fire pit.
Hey Allen... met you Friday opening night @Dark Hour... revisiting this video and have a question... how well will the hot glue and pvc pipe hold up in the Frisco Texas sun and heat? IVe had issues with props before since we have moved here. Also. DH was AWESOME! Thanks again.
we had some pipe sagging issues, we either shortened the length of pipe, or upgraded the gage of pipe.
These are awesome! Any recommendations on the lighting. I struggle every year with my lighting not being bright enough
here is something you might not hear a lot- consider brighter props, you it will be dark, just dust a few with a light color of spraypaint so they are more visible in the low light conditions. Its something to consider- but new LED lights can be pretty bright.
Oh I want to come play and create in your garage.
come on to Texas!
FANTASTIC!!!
um.....thanks Daddy... that was awkward.

if you are on facebook, you could join our group Stiltbeast live creepers- or you could email stiltbeaststudios@gmail.com Id love to see it!
Thanks for this tutorial, made one tonight. My wife's one complaint about it is that it looks too much like paper (cause it basically is lol). What can I do to i guess resolve this if any, aside from adding a layer of bed sheet.
spray it with flex seal, that gives it a rubbery coating.
Anyone ever tell you you’re a genius?!
never buy into your own hype. I just like to make stuff!
Wow ! I’m just amazed ❤❤❤
Im glad you like the video and I really appreciate you taking the time to comment!
Awesome as usual
that was very kind.
Wear gloves and dip your finger(s) in water to spread too.
Dude you're good. Awesome work and thanks for sharing.
I appreciate that!
pretty sweet thanks for sharing !! HFL!!
Thanks for watching!
I need a real cyclops visor from x-men from tyler delaire make it silver with laser beams in them please and thank you from tylerdelaire.
not today!
I've made two of these and unfortunately they just did not work as well as yours. My hanger wire won't bend through the foam so the arms stay pretty straight. They also aren't heavy enough on their own to be anything other than straight up on the PVC pipe so I had to weigh them down with semi-filled water bottles.
what size PVC did you use?
what type of ceiling hanger wire did you use?
I sent the video to my grandson. It looks like we’ll be making some of these for Halloween.
very cool!
0:33 Hi! This is perfect for my Harry Potter Halloween theme. I also want to make Tom Riddle’s tombstone for my yard. What fabric would you use for the figure guarding the stone? I can’t attach a picture, but I found pictures on google.
I would use painted canvas. Check out my Garden Reaper Statue video- you’ll see how I did it- works great!
@@StiltbeastStudios thanks!
I’d love to see you make a basilisk.
Pool noodles is how Id do it...maybe one day
These came out awesome!
thank you, Im glad you liked them!
Question, can I use a piece of rebar in the ground then slip the 1/2 pvc over that instead of a tpost? I would assume you could just wondering if you have tried it. Maybe at a slight tilt
1st time watching you, wish I seen these earlier...Omg these are fantastic, absolutely love them, I make my own stuff but these just top them all...thank you so much for sharing..I defo have to give these a go...your amazing
I’m so looking forward to trying these, really appreciate you for sharing thank you,
Kate NYC ❤
Can you say what kind of construction adhesive you used for the face? Mine is taking 12+hrs to skin over and dry.
Also did you brush paint the styrofoam heads? Mine melt with spray paint.
My kid is a big fan btw! Always wanting to make your creations. Thanks for all your work!
We used liquid nails heavy duty
They Look Great!! Gonna try these. Thanks
Glad you like them!
Great birthday gift to see one of your videos on my birthday. I will have to remember this video to use in a cemetery.
I hope you had an amazing birthday!
@@StiltbeastStudios thank you. It was alright. Worked on stuff for a post apocalypse airsoft event
I could totally do this!!! And I’m going to!
Go make stuff!
You make me wanna GO MAKE STUFF
so....go make stuff!
great directions. awesome dementors! thank you for sharing your talent!
My foam heads don't have a base. Will it still work?
you will have to be creative in attaching the arms, but you can do it. or just get some heads with necks.
amazing I need to make those for my yard
go make stuff!
