- Making your own Pepper's Ghost Illusion? I'm going to teach you how the effect works, and how to make a hologram with a floating animation.
#peppersghost #hologram
Pepper’s Ghost Illusions can be seen all over the world in haunted houses, hands on exhibits, Universal Studios, and Disneyworld. The essential device employed to stage the illusion is an optical beam splitter operated in mirror to combine two images towards the audience's point of view. The image of one scene is reflected from the glass surface towards the viewers, and the image of a second scene is transmitted through the glass.

I think this was what my science teacher asked me when I was a 5th grader. She showed me this illusion and made us write down how it worked. Annnnd she didn't provide the answer. I found it after all these years.... appreciate it.
We are here for you! Glad you found it!
Back in the '60's, I worked carnival midways. The big moneymaker was the Girl to Gorilla! The girl went up the step of the stage the curtain temporarily closed, when open she was seen at the back of the stage behind a set of bars. Slowly the hair grew her face changed until all you saw was the Gorrilla who then went berserk came forward busting through the bars. Half the audience ran screaming from the tent. The gorilla finally corralled was put back in the stage/Cage. Eventually turning back into a girl. The curtain closed as the girl came down from the stage. It then became a standard for many years on many midways.
That is so cool!!
Unquestionably, the dining room scene in the Haunted Mansion in Disney World is a great example of Pepper's Ghost.,knowing how it is done does not diminish the effect.
Exactly! If anything, learning how it works is half the fun.
I love knowing it just because riding the haunted mansion I know my eyes are fooled and I am still stunned!!
I remember years ago how this illusion was NO WHERE to be found on the internet. It was a very secretive technique even when it is a very old one used in theaters decades and decades ago. I had to literally come out with the concept myself and now it is everywhere. The good part about experimenting to find out the effect is that I discovered other things in the process, other ways to make it happen in specific circunstances that I still haven't seen on the internet.
That's awesome! I'm sure there are some unique processes!
??? It's been everywhere for decades. I was reading about it in books when I was a kid, and it was all over the Halloween lists and project pages since the 90s. Kids discover it every time they try to look out of a dark window with a flashlight and see themselves. I'm not diminishing you figuring it out (you always have to figure out how to apply someone else's stuff to your own project, a necessary skill) but sheesh.
I figured out gravity like 2 years ago as well before anyone knew about it. It was no one to be seen on the internet. Now it is everywhere, "gravity" this "gravity" that.
Care to share?
My magical man cave has a whole load of illusions from ghosts in the fireplace to moving portraits.
So cool!!
I'd love to see pictures. I'm making Is a mad scientist steam punk Bar. The ghost will be on the back bar mirror. I'll have a hidden actor, projected into the bar mirror that will be able to see and talk to the customers at the bar.
Not very much “how to make” in this video.
Great point! We're working on a sequel with all the details of how to build the holographic rig!
Seriously.
I thought it was ending 4 different times.
After it continued, I thought: ok, NOW we’ll see the ‘how-to’ nuts & bolts.
Silly me.
Somehow I still want to invest in the highest-quality beamsplitter mirror though haha.
Please make a detailed video on how to make it
I've seen the original diagrams. The ghost is supossed to appear be physically on stage, and the glass merely provide an angle of reflection. This was preformed in grand opera houses with five story balconies. The effect was noted from every angle.
It's absolutely amazing!
will there be differences if the screen were to be put on the side vs top configuration as you have in your video. aside from fact the video orientation must be arranged according to it. thanks
It can be oriented however you like, we put it like this so it would be the most discrete.
Great job describing the theory and showing examples! Loved your video.
Thank you so much!!
So I ended creating this with a old teleprompter that I picked up and it works shocking well
That's awesome!!!
I love your videos, I wish you much more success
please make a video about how you made this device, I am very interested in doing a project in my university with this
Great idea! I will look into getting a DIY tutorial for this. :)
So that's how they do that. Very cool Hannah!
Glad you found it helpful!
Ok, I'm looking to build something like this that works off a cell phone or tablet, but what I can't find is a guide to what exactly I should get for the beamsplitter mirror. Are there different kinds for different applications (i.e. more ethereal vs more lifelike)? Are there ways to enlarge the image from the source? Most importantly, where can I get this stuff and what will it cost?
James,
You can get the glass teleprompter mirror here for the pepper's ghost effect:
www.twowaymirrors.com/teleprompter-mirror/
There is no way to enlarge the image from the source in this type of illusion.
Here is a link to our guide on pepper's ghost for more info:

Wow.. I'm from Toledo, but I live in Vegas.. It's cool seeing this.. Thank you internet.
Awesome! Vegas is the perfect place for pepper's ghost illusions
I don’t understand how the Toledo-Las Vegas sentence works.
@@twowaymirrors Toledo is also just an hour from my house (Toledo, Oregon). Searching for a how to but also where to buy the things to set this up. Working on opening a HP themed cafe and something like this on display especially AFTER HOURS in the dark closed shop window would be amazing!
Hi Hannah, we are currently working on a peppers ghost system for our senior project. We are using acrylic panel however have come across the issue of dual imaging. Is there a way to apply an anti reflective coating to one side of the panel? If not, where can we purchase the beam splitter mirror?
JJ,
Thanks for checking in! To my knowledge you cannot apply films to acrylic, usually they bubble and peel away. I recommend getting the Teleprompter Mirror here, 30R/70T in 3mm or 4mm thickness:
www.twowaymirrors.com/teleprompter-mirror/
Just for posterity, acrylic is a bad way to go. Find that heat shrink plastic they use in the north to seal windows in the winter- it works a treat
And thanks for the information 🎉🎉
Thanks for watching!
Most use light weight thin film that is stretched, not glass as it produces double image not matter what you do and is much heavier and harder to work with. Hell you can do this with saran wrap if your clever enough.
You can also do it with a glass bowl or cup! :)
I noticed the frame shop in the background. I love doing framing.
Thanks! We love it too!
I loved the Mystery Mansion show at Knott’s Berry Farm about 20 years ago!
❤
I would love to hear an informed theory on how to use this to create a *ahem* OG Yugioh duel simulator XD
😂
I like it!
Good! I'm glad! 😁
Trying to make this effect on a backbar mirror for my mad scientist steampunk bar. I need to do this live, So that the ghost can talk to the customers at the bar. Suggestions? Layout?
Here is a short video on the layout! ruclips.net/user/shortsBz4h6PCHQOo
I saw the gorilla girl sideshow, they did a great job
That's awesome! I can't wait to check it out!
I have on Pinocchios daring journey
That's awesome!!
uhh, i'm pretty much into making it, but where do u buy it in hong kong
You can buy the glass from twowaymirrors.com . We ship world wide!
How can I get a hologram or image into my large victorian mirror please? .....Patteee
Hi! We often use our phones or a flash drive to transfer the images.
This is a Pepper’s Ghost illusion… yes. Hologram? No. That requires a laser and beamsplitter mirrors.
We do love our beamsplitter glass! The uses are endless!
My dream is to make something like Joi form Blade Runner. I highly doubt I could make a true full sized hologram like that. But I was wondering is it possible to create a smart mirror with a female of choice,linked to maybe an alexa or something?
Absolutely! Feel free to check out our Smart Mirror page on our website for more details!
Pepper’s Ghost effect can also be seen as the entire dashboard display of my 1994 JDM Toyota Soarer.
Every readout has its own beamsplitter mirror, eg. Fuel gauge, indicators, speedometer etc etc and all at different distances from the driver.
This means that when you turn the ignition on, a completely empty, inky black dash display suddenly lights up with “magically” appearing displays that have a super cool 3D effect.
A version of this car was sold in America as the “Lexus SC400” but unfortunately wasn’t equipped with the amazing dashboard or any of the other cool stuff like world’s first patented in-car touchscreen infotainment centre (crt) and adjustable air suspension, self cleaning mirrors etc etc.
The downside is that even on full brightness, on a very sunny day if you are wearing sunglasses it is very hard to read. This is helped by wearing polarised sunnies but it’s still too dark. In every other lighting condition it looks spectacular though and I put up with it because I’m a gigantic nerd.🤓
Cool video, now when people keep asking me “How does that dash work?” (Or it’s more like “WHA??? HOW DOES THAT DASH WORK??”) But I don’t like yelling.
I’ll show them this.
Wow, that's awesome! :) I know it is more common now to see a really thin film on the windshield to have that augmented display on the glass.
I'm really curious how one can set up a multilayered version of this with multiple mirrors and projectors.
I am also making a Pepper 's ghost illusion hologram project using plastic sheet I hope it works 😅
That's amazing!
Do you set up the mirror on 45 degrees
Yes, between 45 and 60 degrees, depending on your setup
what glass are use two way mirror
Dielectric beamsplitter glass, which is from opticalmirror.com/beamsplitter/
geeze sound guy. add come compression. signal is clipping like crazy
Thank you for the feedback!!
Came here from Magical Mirai footage wondering how this was done
Nice! It's so much fun to create 😊
I'm working on a cool way to make a hologram of Mysterio from Spider-Man, I'm making my own Mysterio costume from scratch (besides the helmet) and I think it would be cool to truly be like Mysterio by learning how to make my own Illiuisions
Mysterio is a great project, I'd love to see how it turns out!
@@twowaymirrors I'm pretty much done with the costume, I'm basing it off the Far From Home version and I've made the gold armor pieces with working lights, the boots, and the cape, I'm just waiting for my dark green skin suit and Mysterio helmet to come in the mail, and in the meantime I'm researching how to make cool illusions, which led me to your amazing video
@@dr.diamond9868 Sounds really cool! I hope you post some photos and videos about it!
@@twowaymirrors I definitely will but I'm waiting til it's %100 complete
Are you going to make a diy for this
Yes, we'll keep working on DIY Pepper's Ghost guides, and we've got this for now: www.twowaymirrors.com/peppers-ghost-illusion/
Does someone offer this set up as a product?
They are DIY projects.
Hannah, I don't know how I got here, but I'd like to have one of those holograms of you.
Thanks Abuelo!
My favorite is the tower of terror illusion
That is a great one!
I’m making a crystal ball prop for my tiki bar. It’s Pretty cool.
That sounds AWESOME!
Who remembers the girl in the fishbowl?
Sounds interesting!
Oh, this entire channel is about mirrors. Interesting. I found this video when searching for mirascope, parabolic mirrors.
We're a glass and mirror manufacturing company! 😄 We try to answer questions people may have about glass and mirrors with our videos--let us know if we can help!
@@twowaymirrors hahaha okay, makes sense. 😂 Do you guys by any chance manufactor mirascopes? Two parabolic mirrors that have the same foci, and when placed one on top of the other with an object at the base, creates a holographic effect?
Where are you from?
Our store is located in Toledo!
Yes
Yes! Sweet!
James Cameron is going to be using something like this for Avatar 2. To achieve 3D without glassesin theaters ;)
That is amazing! Thank you for the fun fact!!!
yes i am for my science project
Awesome!
❤️✌️
Thanks!
If you made the illusion A ghost pouring pepper it would be pepper ghost inception
Nice idea, we'll have to try making an Inception Pepper's Ghost
Pepper's Ghost isn't a hologram. It's a projection and reflection. Yours is even less of a hologram since it's a reflection of a 2d image, unlike the universal studios queue illusion.
Thank you for the update! We just wanted to show our Pepper's Ghost Illusion. :)
Fun fact: This is how head-up displays work on F15 and other fighter jets..
Indeed!
How to make....
Need glass you can’t buy.... great
You can order it with us! Here is the link to the Teleprompter Mirror (Beamsplitter): www.twowaymirrors.com/teleprompter-mirror/
Very informative. Another great video. Thanks!
Thank you! 😀
ABBA Voyage!
Yes!!!
If you so kindly as to do a review on the chess board. Please
We will add it to our list! Thank you! :)
im here for kendrick lamar
Me too!
I'm trying to learn about these cool illusions but this beautiful girl is distracting me.
Thank you
Who else came bc they saw Michael Jackson hologram an legend tupac
Thanks! Those are my favorite pepper's ghost performers!
Whitney Houston on Marth 1st 2020
I don't have these items
That would be a great place to start with a pepper's ghost project! www.twowaymirrors.com/peppers-ghost-illusion/
Great video but not much on how to actually make it
Pro tip: just angle beamsplitter glass at a 45 degree angle with a Nikon 7070!
I'm going to make one of Hatsune Miku
Cool!
That's not what a hologram is.
Great point! A Pepper's Ghost Illusion is often mistakenly referred to as a hologram, but this is a misnomer.
This only work well in a galaxy far far away from Disney
And they're also seen in a galaxy at Disney!
