Welcome back Ghouls! Zone 2 is now complete. I had found a real bees nest last summer (a 'corpse' nest of course- one that was vacated) I prepared it with a spray-on varnish and mounted it onto a piece of 2x4 connected to a 2x2 from the ceiling frame. I made the bees out of packing peanuts and sprayed them with black paint but not totally black because you can't see them in the dark. The 'bees' are suspended with fishing line painted black. Concealed behind the room overhead is a small fan. Once the door opens I turn on a switch (Using the previously shown X10 device- see post from September 11). This turns on the uplighting strobe, fan and scream followed by bees buzzing noise. To add a touch of additional spookiness, I have a spider dropping onto the guests just as they enter. The first video shows the original set-up with fan on creating the bee swarm. The second video is live walkthrough with sound, again using headlight so you can see, but the effect is much better with strobe obviously!
