Building Haunt Wall Panels

[@dionicia12]

You took my red stapler.
I am so jealous of all that room you have.

[@gorkamorka41782]

wow. If only I had a nice garage like that haha. I have to make do with doing things in a drive way and front yard. Love your art work on the walls.

[@wolfpakproductions1031]

Wow! So easy and cheap! I love the landscape fabric idea. We are doing our first home haunt this year and my son wants to make walls so I'm so glad you posted this video! We are building these for sure. Thank you!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Glad this is helpful - they were durable as well. Just be sure to buy the Pro grade of the fabric. The similar stuff I see at Home Depot is too thin. I used DeWitt Weed Barrier Pro (6 x 300'). It's polypropylene fabric and was able to get it a huge nursery that carries supplies for landscapers. You can also find it at Granger: www.grainger.com/product/DEWITT-Weed-Barrier-1ECB9

[@triplej2002]

Thank you so much for this video... we've done a garage haunt for the past several years and we love using the Chromadepth glasses (everyone is always so amazed with them), but we've always used black plastic. Using landscaping fabric seems like a great idea. Great job you did with the designs on the panels as well. Love it!

[@KuyaBillRomjue]

These are AWESOME!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Hey thanks so much. Yeah I just hated the shininess of black plastic and I just so happened to be doing a landscape project. BING! The light bulb went off.

[@6928Viking]

you could add on those little stake looking pieces of wood so it digs into the ground and if theres wind you cut a U shape all over it so if theres no wind its closed but if it is windy then it will flow right through if you did it right

[@nene....]

I LOVE your paint on these! Love your inspiration 👻

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Thank you very much :) :) :)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

I do love that Hall of Flames section. It is very disorientating! When I designed the panels I planned on dismantling them each year to get them back down into the basement. Luckily, they just fit to go down there. I've never tested to see if the staples alone are good enough to hold the fabric on. I've been concerned that after a while the fabric would tear off. But that stuff is pretty strong so I would at least try it out to see.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Thanks. I haven't had that happen yet (falling into them). A few people have bumped into them but because they are safety pinned to other panels they reinforce each other and take the hit great.

[@judichristopher4604]

Glad I found your Pinterest page... EXCELLENT IDEA to do that...
It lead me to here...
Thank you for telling me about that... (I am so stealing this idea, you do know that... LOL) ... when I open up my Acting Studio... Pinterest is a great idea too... of course RUclips is Fantastic.

[@ulcerative]

You and your work are amazing as usual!

[@mybankey]

Great video, and great job on your haunt!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@SuperGrandisle Actually, no problems. They are attached to the ceiling and each other so they reinforce each other and become strong.

[@castrodanny]

amazing! this is really going to help with the construction of the haunted house at my local parish! thanks, danny

[@Scaryladyvideos]

The fabric walls are actually very tough and the way they reinforce each other when they are up I feel pretty confident that it could handle a kid. Now a drunk parent???? ;)

[@DiiJaeProductions]

Wow, the first time I've seen a real woman doing tutorials with power tools.... o.o Your awesome! Love the tip!

[@Mattron5000]

I love these. Going to have to give them a try.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@JustAVlogger That sound nice and Halloweeny. I'm doing a minefield for the queue lines this year. The boys should love it ;)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Thanks so much. It is a challenge to keep that garage clear I'll tell 'ya!

[@gdbanks2007]

Yes there are considered 1 x 2s, that was the original measurement of the wood before it was dried. Thanks for the videos

[@capazontwo]

awesome panels and great info.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

I got mine from a large local nursery that also markets to pro landscapers. IN addition you could also get it from Grainger. It's called DeWitt Weed Barrier Pro.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Thanks! I got mine at a huge nursery here in KC. It's called DeWitt Weed Barrier Pro 6300. It's what the pro's use. I see that Grainger also carries it. Don't get the stuff at Home Depot - it's much thinner.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@JustAVlogger Thanks! Yes, wind is exactly the reason I'm now in the garage.

[@Bmora123]

@Scaryladyvideos thanks im gonna try them out this year i just always thought i had to use 2x4's and plywood and by the way your tutorials are so helpful and you are very talented great job

[@Deathrvsher97]

thank you you are a very good help

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Thanks!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@PanzerKing42 Thanks. I've finally gotten my family involved in Halloween. Dad's working the entrance, mom and my neice will be scare actors. YEAH!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Hey, glad this can help. Good luck and hit me back if you have any questions.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Sorry I didn't see this sooner (was flagged as spam for some reason) but thanks and would love to have you as my Halloween kid :)

[@123thebasics]

Great idea...Icahn use these panels on my porch instead of taping fabric to my walls every year. Thank you.

[@SIMPLEPLANROCKS22]

ok great so that will help :) may have some future ideas i could use that

[@DJEDDX]

WOW! HUGE GARAGE!! Subscribing!!!! haha great video! I wish I could do something like this every year... sucks living with parents that don't support my Halloween Craziness! They have let me do haunts in my garage before but I always have to fight and beg them for permission... Keep the videos coming!!!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@donttrustsnowmen Thanks and Happy Halloween too!

[@SKATERmatt100]

nice i am doing this idea in my back yard i hang them from trees and they are 10ft high

[@GeorgiaBoi70]

HEY TERRA!!! ( It's me, Rookie) : P

[@Scaryladyvideos]

I use WildFire fluorescent paint and do display them with black lights. Thanks for the kudos :)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@sonicfreak04 I've seen that done many times and is a good option.

[@propaktom]

nice job! love your video's.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Tom Drury Thank you so much :)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

I'm just a home haunt - we just have a short little display for the neighborhood kids. Don't charge or anything so no need for certifications. I do keep safety in mind at all times. One of the reasons I have all wiring suspended from the ceiling so there isn't any tripping hazards.

[@isaiahdaniels3575]

What sort of landscaping fabric are you using, about how much did it cost?

[@Bmora123]

this is a great tutorial and i want to try them out but what happens when someone falls on them are they sturdy enough to not fall down

[@TheSherriChannel]

Awesome!! Can I ask what kind of paint you use? The colors are deep and bright. LOVE LOVE! Thanks for the tutorial!!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

It's about $10 for a one-sided panel. The landscape fabric I use costs about $5 per side. Add in furring strips and Velcro and I think $10 is a good figure to base it on.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

That is using the cheapo furring strips that you can find at Home Depot/Lowe's. It's 8' long and about 1 x 2.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@hulkarmy25 Try Googling 'Images' using the term blacklight 3d. I got a bunch of hits there.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Yeah, I'm the one who gets the Home Depot gift certificates ;) The batteries do okay but I have a quick charger on the wall (with an extra battery) and so I always have a fresh one at the ready. I get a good two hours of drilling on one charge.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Thanks, I hope it'll be helpful :)

[@mommat4750]

I love your haunt panels, was wondering about using this technique on canvas tarps (cut down to size of course) then painting with black exterior paint, then the gesso & fluorescent paint, or should I use the gesso overall first? Do you think the paint would stick to the back if it were removed from the frame and rolled for storage? I've never tried anything like this before. I love your tutorials, thanks for sharing.
I hope you're enjoying Austin!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Canvas would work great - in fact that's what I wanted to do but couldn't swing the cost. You may also want to look into getting black canvas from a theatre supply company like Rose. That would save you the step of painting them black. Also, you may not have to do gesso if the paint doesn't get sucked into that fabric. Do a test first and that may also save you another step. But, some paints look better with the white underneath to make it pop more. Up to you. And yes, loving Austin :)

[@OldBonesCreative]

Aww, my comment never posted yesterday. Well, here it is again!
Had to put on my Chromadepths for that last part, and WOW. The 3D application is amazing! In the last hall with the fire, it seems like there's no where to go - you actually feel like you're trapped in flames...it's an awesome effect. So instead of going through all the trouble of velcro, why not just staple the fabric right onto the frame? Do you roll up the fabric and dismantle completely every year?

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@SKATERmatt100 That's a great use for them!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

You are very welcome :)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@DiiJaeProductions Heheh. Thanks...I love me power tools!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Wonderful. Glad it can help :)

[@miamitreasurehunter]

Thanks fellow Haunter!!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Glad it could help and thanks :)

[@telon35]

Thanks this was REALLY help full but were do you get the black stuff is it just black paper

[@judichristopher4604]

Where did you get the BLACK Material?
What is it called and what is the weight of it... It looks really nice and Heavy.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

It is Dewitt weed barrier fabric. Here is the page I made for it: www.pinterest.com/pin/484699978615282551/

Weed Barrier Fabric...
That is is ingenious ... Wow.
Thank you for all this great info.

@lifebeyondtech Your welcome :)

you are my new idle.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

+Brian Bearden Awww. thanks :)

[@robertlanders9355]

AWESOME panels. Thanks for the video! Do you have any suggestions for painting the panels for those of us with less artistic talent than you ? :)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Thanks :) Get a projector to help project the image onto the screen. Then it's easy-peasy :) If you haven't seen this video yet to show you how it's done here it is: ruclips.net/video/IwEVsE-pPQc/видео.html

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@Xpierd Awww...that's sweet :)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Yeah, I can somewhat understand. It's hard for hubby to see his garage getting set-up. Wires EVERYWHERE!

[@cybersquad8852]

This is awesome! about how long did it take you to build one panel, minus the painting?

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Thank you :)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Wonderful. Holler if you have any questions :)

[@smromanc]

I wish you were my neighbor!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

With a ruler they measure 1 1/2" x 3/4". At the hardware store would they call those 1 x 2"? I always get so confused...

[@pattifales1640]

What type of paint did you use. The paintings are the best. It looks fluorescent. Do you use a black light also?

[@BIGEDDIE61]

Oh I'm SOOO doing this in the future! MUAH HA HA! lol

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Have fun :)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

You're very welcome and thank you :) I use WildFire fluorescent paint. But brace yourself - it's pricey.

[@clifgold4308]

What type of paint do you use? Has there been any trouble with paint adhering to the polypropylene?

[@sonicfreak04]

what about using foam to make stone panels

[@josecanas7643]

About how much do each of the frames cost. and how about the fabric?

[@donnacremer3675]

I didn't see any seams in your landscape fabric. Did you use 6' or 8' width fabric?

[@Scaryladyvideos]

I used 6' wide fabric.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Well, thank you :)

[@DiiJaeProductions]

@Scaryladyvideos I can tell. :D Very good work.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

I don't know how you would stand these up outside. We are so windy here that these are installed in the garage.

[@darkhillscary]

What are the dimensions on those firing strips? Are those 1" x 3" ???

[@Aidanloveskeyboards]

how much money is a panel after all is said and done?

[@Scaryladyvideos]

I figured it was about $15 per panel. You use 3 1/2 furring strips ($4), six screws ($1), Velcro ($2-3) and the fabric is about $5-7.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@MegaRockmetal666 You're welcome :)

[@SIMPLEPLANROCKS22]

landscape fabric rips easy right?

[@andymorales3133]

Hola, me encanto, ¿qué tipo de pintura utilizaste?
Un saludo desde México 🇲🇽

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Hola de vuelta y gracias. Si usted está preguntando acerca de qué tipo de pintura he utilizado - se llama WildFire.

[@andymorales3133]

Gracias, ¿Esta pintura la a conseguido por litro? ¿Para El efecto 3D se necesitan las gafas Chromadepth verdad?
Este año realizará alguna saca del terror en su garage, me fascinan sus videos, muy chulos, espero que suba este años videos

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@@andymorales3133 Me alegra que te gusten los videos y encantados de ayudarte. Necesitas gafas 3D de Chromadepth. Yo diría que planee usar alrededor de 2 tazas de pintura por panel. Por favor, echa un vistazo a este tutorial totalmente wriiten que puede ayudar a cualquier pregunta adicional. Está en inglés, pero espero que ansers suficiente: www.halloweenforum.com/threads/painting-chromadepth-3d-panels.205431/

[@andymorales3133]

Scaryladyvideos utilizaste tela para hacer los murales ?

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@@andymorales3133 Más o menos. Es tela de paisaje, pero de la clase pesada. Es polypropylene. Aquí está un enlace a lo que usé: www.dewittcompany.com/DeWitt_Weed-Barrier_PRO_Black__3_nbspOZ__.aspx?productid=71&categoryid=46

[@CadesProductions]

how much do those walls cost to make???

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@GeorgiaBoi70 Hey back! You found me ;)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Yeah, I thought I heard you mumbling this over the phone: "...but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire..."

[@marine4680]

What are the dimensions of the wood you used, and where did you get it?

[@lamrontonmi]

you'll need something like this...
(walmartcom)/ip/ITW-40088-22-Caliber-Single-Shot-Trigger-Operated-Powder-Actuated/21130777
that'll secure the wall straight into the ground. 2-3 shots per panel (plus other safety precautions) and the wall wont be going anywhere BUT, i have not used this gun on these kind of panels. i only use plywood walls with 2x4 for the frame, costly, but much sturdier, will last longer, and handle weather much better than cloth.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

That, I woudn't know and the wind would also play a lot of havoc with this type of wall. Sorry :(

[@SuperGrandisle]

Ehhh what if sombody leans on it?

[@Scaryladyvideos]

@smromanc :)

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Not this stuff. It's pro-grade and awesome. Made by DeWitt and called Weed Barrier Pro.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Luckily, I'm just a home haunter ;)

[@ScareventuresHaunts]

Don't show this to the Fire Marshal!

[@Scaryladyvideos]

It's about $10 for a one-sided panel. The landscape fabric I use costs about $5 per side. Add in furring strips and Velcro and I think $10 is a good figure to base it on.

[@Scaryladyvideos]

Thank you :)
