Well...just about. The very beginning where the red wagon is in the picture (NOT part of the haunt btw!) is where we will have to see about how the exit will work going into the tunnel outside the garage and how much room we will need. But the bulk of the hallway is framed. The end of the hall(closest to the viewer in the image) will have the only 3 vacuform crypt panels in the haunt, due to arrive any day now, one of which will be placed on the door going into zone 2 (again for a description of the 7 zones, see the blog entry for July 4th). Depending on how the panels lay out we might have to add some more 2 x 2's. Now the other image is showing a part of the entrance hall ceiling which for the first 1/2-2/3 of the hall has to be just below the height of the opened garage door, maybe 6 1/2 or so feet. I framed out a square opening through which I will drop a fake bloody hand just as people walk under it. The entrance hall will have a camera monitoring traffic so I will be able to see when exactly I need to 'drop the prop'! The hand will be suspended by a pulley mechanism to be demonstrated later. I'm a big fan of prop drops. They are easy to set up and work very well. The end of the hall will transition to the 10 foot ceiling height.
