Thanks gathering parts now and here is an added idea for after the holiday which I think may just add a bit more for a short time later, how about creating a minature sleigh with reindeer to fly around the same set up just have not how to keep Rudolphs nose lit up, Curious about your thoughts on the extended seasonal variation
@@murphyg27 I think that’s a great idea!
At first I thought you had set this up in a real cemetery. I then realized you just have a HUGE yard. Very cool!!!
Thank you so much! Highest compliment! I have 2 acres that I go crazy with.
Yes I thought the same thing.
🪦👻🪦
I thought the same thing. Wow its amazing and huge yard😮👍
Yard envy here too. That yard is what our house builder put 6x 4 bed houses on!
OH THIS IS SOOOOO GOOD. Love the fishing hardware and the coupler. Those 'physically' small details are the ones that are so vital and end up taking a bunch of time to figure out. Also weatherproofing. Ohio Halloweens are always a wet affair. Thank you so much for this!
Thank you SO much! I really appreciate the positive feedback!
Halloween is so fun. And your cemetery with the ghost will be a big hit with the kids. Great job. 😱😱
Thank you so much! Happy Halloween! 👻🎃
That’s the coolest! Genius how it endlessly patrols back and forth. 🤣👏👏
Thank you!! I have SO much fun with it!! 🤣👻
So realistic!! Brilliant!
Nothing says Halloween like Harry Belafonte... You achieved the Axworthy effect without a kit- great job!
Ha! Thank you!!
This is so excellent, thank you!! I really like the slow, ghostly speed too, just right.
Awesome!!
Thank you so much, Steve! I appreciate the positive feedback. 👻
I love the bounce it gives too
Great video.. This as always been a great prop to use in a graveyard display..
I already check about 13 videos and your has the best info and simplicity on my project, thank you!!!!
Aww! Thank you SO much! I really appreciate the positive feedback!
How did it go?
Just received the parts from Amazon...put together and works great! Thanks for this great tutorial!
That is awesome! Thank you so much for letting me know! Happy haunting!
This is so cool!!! Your channel has Ben on fire this year! Thanks for making this.
Aww! Thanks for the positive feedback, Jeremy!
Man if I had a yard that big I would have some fun. Great job!
Thank you so much!
I remember watching a RUclips post a couple of years ago with a similar setup.
I believe that setup included a 3rd wheel adding another leg for the ghost to travel.
Loved your post. Short, simple and easy to follow directions….
Scariest thing in your video was the lifelike ghoul sitting on the steps in the background. 🤣
Enjoy your Halloween! 👍🏻👻💀👹☠️❤️🥂😎
Haha! Thank you! I appreciate it! Happy Halloween to you as well. 👻🎃
What a great set up, sooo much room! It looks fantastic. If I could figure out how to make it look as if the ghost rises out of the grave vertically and then takes flight, I would make one for my yard.
Thank you, Steb! I like your idea too! 👻🎃
Thanks for this tutorial !! I've been trying for so long to find a simple mechanism 🥰🥰
You are so welcome! I hope this works well for you!! 👻🎃
Brilliant Thanks for sharing. I have some ghostly CD's I play with Howling wolves, screaming, and other creepy Halloween sounds. Very creative.
Thank you!! Your Ghostly sounds will be perfect for this!!
This is amazing and so creepy! I love it!
Thank you, Flee!!!
great video!!! i couldn't stop singing and dancing though. had to watch it a few times. Made for a fun evening :)
Thank you! 👻
Nice video.
Perfect speed for the ghost.
Nice 'n smooth
😃!
Thank you so much!
Great video! Like to add on the last wheel you left an open hole in the wood. Going to say for long term use might cover that up to keep moisture out.
Great suggestion! Thank you!
I love how drones can accomplish this feat.
But drones are so noisy.
And you have control the drone as well
thank you very much, just ordered all the parts. going to be great. Danny
Fantastic! Happy haunting!
That looks so good wow you are awesome great instructions too thank you this is perfect
Aww! Thank you so much for the positive feedback! I appreciate it.
This looks fun. Maybe for next year.
Absolutely incredible!!!! Fantastic job and very creative!!
Thank you SO much! I really appreciate the positive feedback!
white women be learning electrical engineering and mechanics just for their halloween displays. meanwhile black folk out there can't even complete high school smdh
That’s a very good achievement with some very clever ingenuity.
Thank you so much!
Cool idea!
Thank you!!
Pretty Clever and looks great. Happy Halloween 2022
Thank you so much! Happy Halloween to you!
Great tutorial and a great result. Thansk for the video!
Thank you!! 👻👻👻
@@scarriehalloween Maybe I missed it - but where do you get the hair from? You are right, it's a great detail to add hair.
@@ELMSTREETDK I cut hair from a cheap wig and hot glued it on! 🤣
This is just incredible 👏
Thank you!
great effect..looks very creepy drifting along, even during the daytime.
I constantly see & hear cats in my home when I lost my last cat 6 years ago.
I have a ghost in my garden too that creates very warm spots by a little tree & also a sweet perfume smell.
If u get out of the habit of expecting ghosts to perform on "spirit boxes" or give u jumpscares then there are lots of subtle signs there's something there. it's reassuring really if we can visit loved ones after death or that beloved pets can still show they're around.
Looks really effective and realistic, was hoping that you would show how the ghosts were made to.
Thanks! I can do a video on that!
That's an awesome idea. Well done!
👻👻👻👻
Thank you so much!
Ooooo ma glob! Ooooo ma glob! That is so beautiful!
Thank you so much!!
Omg this is soooooo awesome!!! I wish I had a better understanding of electronics because I don't think I could replicate this unless you made another video titled the same, but with "for dummies" in parenthesis lol
🤣🤣 thank you so much! Totally worth giving it a try!
That is awesome!
Thank you!!
Very nice work
I thought that was very neat thanks for the idea keep posting it's good to learn thank you happy Halloween
Thank you!!
That is fantastic very cool
Thank you so much!
Good video inspire me to make a Halloween prop
This is very creative thanks for sharing ..
Thank you, Duane!
Adding ALL of this to my cart! I am so excited to try this. Thank you for sharing. Can you talk more about the locking bolt on the receiver and the setup of the house of the motor? How you attached everything?
Thank you! Do you have specific questions regarding these things?
That’s the coolest thing for a budget I bet it looks better at night
Thank you so much! It’s amazing at night! Check it out!

So cool!
Thank you!!
Great job 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much!
Brilliant!
Thank you!
Fenomenal
Nice job 👍
Thank you!!
Really nice, I like it. Must be better to see the ghost around night I think, pretty cool overall.
Thank you! I’m going to post a night video within a couple weeks!
@@scarriehalloween Nice! Happy Halloween!
@@Ethylamine you too!!
Great music at the end 😱
Thank you! I appreciate it!
awesome !
Thank you!!
This is truly GREAT work... Bike wheels on the kitchen island.. what a catch you are! 🏆👍😂🤣
I am currently in the process of making something similar for a short film. The only extra element I added was a second suspension point at the waist of the skeleton so that he/she always flies in the same direction.
Best wishes from an Englishman making armour in a French forest... Stay creative and Happy Halloween! ⚒️🦇🎃
Hahaha! Hilarious! Thank you so much and have fun making your short film!
BOOOooOoOOoOoooooo!! I love this, great Idea! and good job on your talent!
Thank you so much! 👻🎃
Nice very good job 👍
Thank you so much!
LOVE YOUR CREATIVITY AND LOVE HALLOWEEN 👍👻🎃
Thank you so much!! Halloween is the best!! 👻🎃
@@scarriehalloween YES IT IS 👍😁
Great setup for sure. I noticed fishing weights in your parts layout. I am assuming you use those on either side of ghost attachment swivel to keep it in place? Just wanting to understand how you are keeping ghost in place with just a swivel connector over the line. Thanks so much and again, great set up.
I decided not to use them in my set up, but they can go on the line on either side of the ghost to keep it from sliding too far back and forth in the wind.
You're a genius lady 😎
Aww! Thank you, Bruce!
Absolutely bad ass.
Thank you so much!
That's enough to give a little kid nightmares lol
Lol! For sure!
excelent !!
Thank you!!
Nossa assustador, perfeito,imagino a noite vendo este fantaaaasma, muito legal 👏👏👏👏♥️👍. Parabéns , adoro história de Gost 👻🙌👍
That is so cool
Thank you!!
Hi thank you for the info!! I was able to get everything I need to attempt to make my own, thanks to you! Could you tell me how you figured out which size coupler you needed for the bike tire and motor ?
Oh awesome! You will want to measure the bolt diameter on both the wheel and the motor and order the coupler accordingly. 🥰
Love ur music haha
Haha! Thanks, Michele! 👻🎃
*AWESOME MOD ON AN OLD CONCEPT, THE CREEPY 60S HORROR MUSIC WAS THE CHERRY ON TOP.* 👍🏼
Haha! Thank you so much!!
Good video, but I wish a few things were added. For example, a 12v wiper motor is used but no mention of the amperage of the power supply. A 12v 1amp P.S. may not work. (I used 12v. 5a. power supplies for mine). Also, links to the products below would be nice for some people.
Do you also want her to come build it for you ?
@@mykelg9423 lmao 🤣 😂 I was thinking the same thing
🤣🤣
Totally over engineered mine, wish I seen earlier.. great job!!!
Thank you!
Is this your yard? A desirable magical world
It sure is! I have SO much fun with it each year!
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I found the bolt link in the comments. Could you please provide the link for the motor and the wire used? Thank you!
Thank you!! Here’s the link to the motor. It comes with the wires!

The is AWESOME! What a great thing to do with y’all’s yard. That is a massive yard! How many tombstones did y’all put out? How long have y’all using this flying ghost prop? Have you had any issues with it? Looks great. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, Joe! I built this flying ghost only last year, so it’s new! I put out about 125 tombstones and lots of props over our 2 acres. 🤣🤣
@@scarriehalloween I tip my hat to you, so to speak. I have issues just trying to setup a regular suburban neighborhood sized yard. You did a great job. Maybe I will do a flying ghost next year. Still trying to get done the projects I started. Still need more tombstones here. Thanks.
@@knowyourjoe8826 thank you so much! I appreciate the positive feedback!
How did you make the axle onto spin inside the wheel?
Cemetry and ghosts are awesome, plus bonus of after Halloween you will have a natural, moving, clothes drying system
Thank you! 🤣
so off topic but ur countertops are beautiful
Thank you!
Hi there I have been during the day (package delivery) and its very impressive fellow u tuber
For real?! That’s so cool! Thanks for the positive feedback!
This is great. My neighbor just put one up, he's having a little trouble keeping the line from popping off, any advice?
Why did you use the coast wheel as a drive wheel? Seems like you'd want to use the wheel that locks when engaged to drive. Cool idea! Might give it a go.
Thank you! It’s actually the opposite. Coast wheel is on the return and locking wheel as the drive. Have fun!
What kind of knot would be needed to join the fishing line, or do you use something to join the two ends?
Gosh, I wish I knew the name of the knot! I put the two end together in same direction and tied together
You guys are geniuses
Ha! Thank you!
@@scarriehalloween I seen this one someone did using a drone and they were chasing people with it. It was pretty funny! So I'm kind of rambling (that's what old people do) but there's this old illusion called "peppers ghost" Have you heard of it?
@@thisolddog2259 haha! I have seen the drone videos! So much fun!
@@scarriehalloween thank you for responding to me. A lot of channels I sub to are probably to busy to respond to my posts and that's OK. Just keep doing what you do!
@@thisolddog2259 aww! Thank you! I like interacting with my subscribers! Happy Halloween!
This is too cool! How does it go back
Thank you! It just keeps looping on the return wheel! Check out part 2 for more details! ruclips.net/video/Ricynnp-rOU/видео.html
I loved your ghost, so, so, so, COOL!! in the cemetery..🙂🙃🙂💀☠👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻
Thank you, Dwayne!!
Does this moter allow it to move forwards and backwards contiunisouly? Also is it possible to make a solar option or set this up on a timer system to be used as a bird deterrent in a garden?
It only moves in one direction. Yes, I think it’s possible to connect solar, but that is beyond my skill set!
How do you keep it facing forward as it travels?
It does spin some, but will correct itself.
Can I get a link to the female power adapter thing
I could only find multi-packs, but here’s an option, otherwise, you can buy the power supply and female adaptor together:
Power supply with female adapter: amzn.to/3CeOCJR
Female adapter w/o power supply: amzn.to/3dMCBC2
This is incredible! Does the ghost just go around the wheel when it gets there?
It sure does!!! Thank you!
Instead of using the blue collar to attach the wheel to the motor , I just welded the bicycle axle nut and the wiper motor nut together! that way it screws on and is more stable than the collar with the set screws and you don't have to JB weld!
If I could weld, I would have done the same! Good work!
Or you can JB weld the nuts together, also!
The ghost is attached to the line with a fishing clip. What keeps the line from just moving under the fishing clip without advancing the ghost, especially when the line is going uphill?
So, this design isn’t intended for uphill, but you can attach the ghost directly to the other fish clip on the line, or use fishing sinkers on either of the line, “pinning” the ghost in place. I go into a little more detail on part 2 if you want to check it out. ruclips.net/video/Ricynnp-rOU/видео.html
What kind of lights did you use in the graveyard?
I use outdoor LED flood lights! You can change them to any color you want. Love them! Lights: amzn.to/3FIoGJ1
What size bike wheels did you use?
16 inch
What was the make and brand on that reducing coupler I can not find one like that?
Blue Coupler: amzn.to/3revlSy
What did u use to cover the inside of the wheel where the line goes? I put black tape on mine but I don't think it's gonna work...
I also used black electrical tape and it holds up well!
Where did you get the ghost? I want to get one and attach to my drone to fly around the neighborhood.
I made it! ruclips.net/video/VQ3V-ZZcVs8/видео.htmlsi=XrKs8Dtc71-_ZRVY
Did you put a fish swivel in the main line as well as the hang line?
Yes! Fish swivel on main line and another on the flying ghost head.
Hi...may i ask what size coupler you used?
Hi! Here’s the link to the coupler I used! Blue Coupler: amzn.to/3revlSy
Hello, I was wondering what type of bracket you used for the wiper motor? Thank you for your time.
Hi! You can pretty much use any L shaped bracket to attach the motor. I used this one, but had to make adjustments to it, like drill the holes larger for the motor. amzn.to/3EukM5Z
You can use a drone two but that’s cool
That would be fun too!
Wish I had that house
She must be an engineer cause no ma’am. But this is awesome 😅
🤣🤣
How did you keep the ghost from sliding if you didn't use the fish weights?
I tied knots in the line! You could totally use the fish weights as an alternative!
wow
Thanks!
