Day 42- Crypt (map room) exit door

The last of the large rolling doors is finally complete. This is the exit door from the map room. There will be someone behind the wall to the left who can operate the door with a simple 2x2 wooden handle attached to the back of it. Notice the 'stonework' on the door which was the last bit of hot tub cover that was used on the walls before. Now some ghouls ask me "Doc, why do you keep calling this thing 'map room'? Looks like a crypt to me" That's because the plans for this room were inspired by the map room scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark. I wanted to do Egyptian theme panels but they were too expensive. At any rate we are using sound from that actual movie scene and of course there is the projected snake on the ground as well as the moving wall.
