There are SO many damn complicated ways to do this online and this is the simplest, easiest, cheapest and really effective! Depending on how you decorate and disguise the base, people were clueless how I made it work! THANK YOU it made the party! Everyone was talking about my magic ball and the creepy lady LOL
The glass jar could double as a wine glass later, just the right size! You are so creative! I wish you lived an hour or so closer, I'd love to pal around w/you one day, I could learn a LOT! You truly are gifted, you never cease to amaze me!
Wow, i have seen other ways people do this, but your version with the glass INSIDE the globe is genius! If you do it right no one can figure it out. I applaud you sir...
first time I've seen this done as a pepper's ghost....Hats off to you for a most clever creation. All the ones I've seen and done myself are projected onto a styro head. great thinking out of the box.
Ha! I bought one of those scary clown DVDs to do this a few years back, but that was back before flat screens I think, & it seemed too difficult to set up, & was done with a black box & fabric, not the oversized brandy snifter. This seems much easier with a better effect. Very creative of you! Thanks!
AWESOME TRICK, LOVE IT! I have an old laptop and a good set of speakers I will use instead, this way the image is easy to download and easy to change, also easy to set the player on repeat. thanks!
Very Cool... i'll make 2 change ideas though... what about round plastic inside it so you cannot see those points from the square piece, also the handle on glass looks off, what about a perfectly big round fish bowl or something more round, or a gemmy plastic spirit ball top that would be even better, plus maybe make the tv brightness glowing more so she is more defined.....
question I noticed they have these effects on atmosfx.com/collections/atmosfearfx ... more specifically the singing pumpkins... if you have a projector could projecting the madame Leota video on to a white crystal ball prop work like they do with the signing pumpkins?
Hi Barry, I tried the plastic in the bowl and I liked it but it only reflected on the size of the plastic which was a small image. use hologram film sheet and place it into the bowl instead and the whole bowl lit up with her face!!
Try to download this file from the link and burn it to a DVD. (link expires on Oct.15) www.wetransfer.com/downloads/b231197eeb265f24fbae7a42afa487fe20141008145853/5df3cc736d4d1a19d3bfc0126d43f3ed20141008145853/ed8599
Very very good sir. Very informative and fun. "Fly away buzzard, fly away crow. Way down south where the winds don't blow. Rub your nose and give two winks and save us from this awful jinx." - Deputy Barney Fife ;) ;)
I've seen people doing this with phones and tablets now too. Projectors too if you wanna spend the cash. Of course if you found a cheap tv that would do it you may as well..
Barry, I unfortunately did not look at comments until just now and am having a hard time finding a link to the dvd loop and just saw the one that expired on the 15th. Do you know of any others? And by the way, this is going to make my haunted mansion party a hit!!!
You would have to create a video file in iMovie, then set it to repeat.... You can download the video file by highlighting the url from a madame leota video on youtube... there is one that comes up first when you search. and go to file wiggler dot com and follow the instructions, then choose to save the file as a MP4 or Quicktime then presto... you could even add special effects and create your own by video taping yourself or someone else.. that would be cool!
Thank you... the I have found the simplest things are always much more... If you were to walk in front of the one at Disney, the hologram would project on your shirt. This one is stationary.. lol
So can you show me how to make the crystal ball of my doggy boyfriend you know Phantom of the Dogera from Toby terrier I was looking for someone who could teach me how to make the crystal ball like that I guess I needed that help from you🐶🐩🐕🐶🐩🐕🐶🐩🐕🐶🐩🐕🐶🐾

This is very cool Barry Belcher. Great work! Odd, she reminds me of my mother.

AWESOME!!!!! What a great idea. I've always wanted a crystal ball AND and a HUGE Haunted mansion fan. This is VERY well done. Thanks for posting!!!
This is incredible. So simple and yet so brilliant. Thanks
This has always been my favorite :)
This is fabulous! I generally do quick, low tech crafts but I think I may just give this one a go- fantastic!
i think i need to get a ghostbusters proton pack.
very clever and nice job on the video.
THis is sooooo cool !! awesome work Berry. I love watching you're videos.
You found a simple way to do something really cool.
Your crafts are genius! Love the videos

Nice job there!!!
I can do it but, do not have a flat tv; thanks for the tips for Halloween;
This is a SUPER nest way to do this on the cheap!
Nice and easy effect to make, big impact... thanks for sharing.
Barry, Thank you for posting this. I've always wanted to do this. Would you PLEASE re-post the link to the video? Thank you!!
Yes, anything that puts out light.
You are such a fun person ! Thank you !
I love it! I can't wait to do this.

Houdini used the same principle of projection to make an elephant appear and disappear on stage. Really cool effect.
So cool. Does anyone know if this would work with an iPad?
question I noticed they have these effects on atmosfx.com/collections/atmosfearfx ... more specifically the singing pumpkins... if you have a projector could projecting the madame Leota video on to a white crystal ball prop work like they do with the signing pumpkins?
@barrybelcher2002 ty sooo much...where did you find the clip?
that's cool, but where did you get the Madame Leota video?
Cool stuff !
wow i never would have thought of that, how did you figure that out
Very cool. I don't mean to sound dumb, but, how does the image project from the t.v. into the glass dome?
Where do you get your ideas?
pure genius.
Hi Barry, I tried the plastic in the bowl and I liked it but it only reflected on the size of the plastic which was a small image. use hologram film sheet and place it into the bowl instead and the whole bowl lit up with her face!!
Christine Ensell Where did you get the hologram film sheet?
Ebay... look up Projection Screen PVC Film Material..
I can't find just the madame Leota video on you tube

Hey Barry, like the Madam Leota video. Good job! Where can I find the "Leota video"? What DVD is the clip from? Thanks! Vincent
