Check out some of my DIY pneumatic props.

A few years back I started designing and building my own pneumatic props for Halloween. I was inspired by the graveyard scene on the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland. I wanted to have a ghost or skeleton pop up like on the ride. Over the years I’ve made different variations of pnumatic props, some being better a scaring than others. The skeleton out of the fence column was pretty good, and so was the skeleton sitting up on the table. The spider crate with the air burst “ankle ticklers” was less scary for people. Most years I’ll have some type of coffin slamming prop, or some type of startle scare using pneumatics. Watch the videos below for some ideas and insperation. Happy Haunting!
