Witch Cottage Facade Part 1: Wall Panels (and YouTube Studio Set)

I needed to build a Witch Cottage Facade for a new Halloween yard haunt scene this year, and I wanted to use it as the set background for my RUclips studio in the off season. This is a two-part build. In part 1, I'll show you how I created these "old wood" wall panels, aged windows with lightening FX, and the rolling frame that it sits on while it's in my workshop. In part 2, I'll show you how I assemble it in my Halloween yard haunt, the cool classic Salem-style roof that will make this facade over 12 feet tall, and all the detailed atmospherics like fog, smells, sounds, lighting and animatronics that will make the Witch Cottage scene truly spectacular on a dark October night. This step-by-step how-to video includes materials, instructions, and detailed footage of the process for Part 1 only. Stay tuned for part 2 in August! I hope this inspires you to build your own Witch Cottage Facade for your Halloween haunt display!
