The Mausoleum.

My grave yard, like all good grave yards has a mausoleum. It will have a black light lit ghost that moves around. It is my version of a common ghost prop is called a Flying Crank Ghost (FCG). I don't have any videos of my ghost in motion, but here is a YouTube video of someone else's.

The mausoleum will also have a flaming cauldren hanging on each side of the doorway. I don't put them on until Hallowen night.

I will try to get a good night time picture of my mausoleum this year and post it.

The wood pannel's are in real bad shape. The wood was not meant for exterior use but did last serveral years.I will patch and repaint them soon. Maybe next year I will replace them. It costs about $10 per sheet of 4x8 Luan plywood. I would need at least two new sheets to fix the mausoleum. I also could replace a couple sheets on the Crypt as well.  Luan is not meant for outside either, but if you pant it real well it works OK. I used Luan for the Crypt and it has lasted for over five years. Several of those times I have left it up till spring.

Here are some in progress photos of the mausoleum.

I am thinking about adding a gate to the doorway of the mausoleum. I also need to rebuild the FCG. I bought a new motor for it and the frame needs done better.
