Day 30- October is here! Now for 'Prop-drop 101'

Welcome back Ghouls! Only 30 days to go and lots to do still. We wanted to demonstrate the prop drop concept. This is very simple and effective. All you need is a prop, some fishing line and a couple of pulleys. We see here the example of our 'bloody hand' prop in the entrance hall which will drop on the unsuspecting guests just at the right moment. The hand drops through an opening in the frame. We can monitor it with the camera placed at the end of the hall. The fishing line runs up to the first pulley directly above the hand, then across the ceiling back to the control room to a second pulley, then down to the operator who is able to control the drop using a block tied on the end of the fishing line. the block can be placed under 2 posts until it is ready to be used again.
See the images and demo video!
