The foam sheeting... If you put several layers over a statue, heated it, then cut it off and reassembled it... basically using the statue as a mold, would it work to make a more accurate looking ghost?
There are heat resistant plastic tubes made specifically for fog machines. I bought one last year from spirit halloween for about $15. That would probably be pretty useful for this project or any other ones you do that involve a fog machine
yes and yes- Polyethylene foam is the same foam pool noodles are made of, so it does fine outside. and its hollow so its easy to put wire or pvc in it.
So glad I found you on TH-cam I really like making things like this biggest problem is is I can't find a skull to mold more heads with it's crazy I just haven't been able to find one keep up the good work
I'm fully expecting Allen to do a video one day missing an arm - a whole arm, with him explaining that earlier that day he "nicked" himself with a power saw but that it's ok as it was "just a flesh wound". Lol - he's like Wile E Coyote where no matter what happens to him, he just comes right back like new! Great project Allen, as usual.
This underpayment is expensive now. Sounds like you spent $26 on underpayment 2 years ago. But it’s$49 for 4x25 sqft. Is there something else that can be used for this?
First of all, I did not hear "bucket" just before you put the light in,... Secondly,.... nice Segway after "second hole." Also, I enjoyed the look of the ghost. You do great work.
Are you sure that heat gun was hot enough? If only there was a way to test it... Great job Allen. I was creating the graveyard statue using the underlayment when I decided to turn it into a ghost instead! Perfect timing on your part. I bought some cheap string lights for the bottom but hadn't considered the fog machine... hmm... running low on money now...
That is so Awesome!!! Thank you for sharing your talent with us! I am going to go make stuff!😁
You are so welcome!
That Underlayment has unlimited possibilities...A lightweight Prop like this could easily be suspended/mounted up high...
Epic floating glow ghost I love it good work
glad you liked it!
@@StiltbeastStudios ✨😀
I guess that would be on the bucket list
do it!
@@StiltbeastStudios I learn a lot from your videos and appreciate the time and effort you put into them
OMG, i can do this! looks great. tks for sharing...
Such great ideas. Even if I don’t do exactly the same, you show what can be done with different materials and inspire me to make other things x
I’m So glad you’re doing edited videos again, Allen... Streamed videos are simply too long for me. Great tutorial 👍
Glad you like them!
best use of materials and fire and ice light. Thumbs up for the spray paint dance lol
it said "shake for one minute" so...
So cool!!
I’m addicted to your channel!!!!
Thanks! Hope you make something awesome!
You did a really really really good job
building a ghost while wearing a ghost shirt
i love that lol
I have a theme
Awesome build Allen. So simple and easy to make. Thanks for the ghost vid
thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
I’ve watched several of your videos and I’m seeing a trend…..bucket, heat gun and glue gun ❤️👍 love your channel 😘
Dang it Allen now another project to add to my list to do. Really looking forward to a mummy video and your easy way of doing it.
He's coming!
Awesome work on everything you do!!!

Very ethereal! Love the spray can Can Can.
Thank you! Cheers!
You've inspired me to go make a lot. I'm glad I found this channel

Oh the things you can do with a 5 gallon bucket are amazing!
I think its bucket and barrel season!
Looks awesome. Thanks for sharing this with us. You are awesome.
You are so welcome
This is SO freaking awesome! Too bad I have gale force winds most of the time. I would find my ghost in the next continent LOL
Thanks for sharing!
yeah, it ends up pretty light weight
I don’t care if I recently see it or how many times I watch your videos very entertaining 👍🏼👌🏼
you are so kind, glad ya like them
Another awesome TH-cam Wednesday. A great way to use up any extra buckets. The 2 1/2 gal buckets from HD would be cool also. Thanks again Allen...
Great idea! -Thanks Robert
Awesome Build Ghost came out awesome!!
Thank you!
you never cease to amaze me ! perfect design for a scooby do o phantom
I actually want to make several of these, I love their look but that can be changed up to suit yoiur tastes also
@@StiltbeastStudios yep I've always been a big fan of the peppers ghost effect
That would really make an impactful horde of ghosts.
Right? Like a little army - or not so little.lol
This video is great! Very much so inspiring me to make my own graveyard scene!!
Do it- HAppy HAlloween!
StiltbeastStudios 🖤👍💀
that turned out really great and for 30 bucks you can't go wrong ...thanks for sharing HFL!!
thanks for the support, sir!
Niiice! Adding to my list of things to make. Thanks 😊
You’re welcome 😊
Love this!
Make yourself one!
You should get a grill glove. Very nice for using a heat gun
Great advice! Thanks! Have a great Halloween!
Informative, inspirational, and entertaining.
glad you feel that way
Genius level - all your vids
thank you, you are too kind.
Really love this idea
Glad you like it! Make one!
Genius! Very Cool!
Glad you think so! Thanks as always, Hugo for your support
As usual another great video Allen!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another great idea. Thanks!
You are so welcome!
Do you have a spotlight shinning on this or is the light inside the bucket?
The foam sheeting... If you put several layers over a statue, heated it, then cut it off and reassembled it... basically using the statue as a mold, would it work to make a more accurate looking ghost?
There are heat resistant plastic tubes made specifically for fog machines. I bought one last year from spirit halloween for about $15. That would probably be pretty useful for this project or any other ones you do that involve a fog machine
great idea! I just let it shoot into the hole.
That would be cool to have, especially if you make a couple ghosts and need to distribute the fog to both
Love your shirt 😍
Hey, thanks!
Amazing! you do so much with so little
I try!
Love the shirt bro
Thanks Ken
Does this ghost last the haunting season outside? Could I frame the body with pvc pipe for it to last longer?
yes and yes- Polyethylene foam is the same foam pool noodles are made of, so it does fine outside. and its hollow so its easy to put wire or pvc in it.
So glad I found you on TH-cam I really like making things like this biggest problem is is I can't find a skull to mold more heads with it's crazy I just haven't been able to find one keep up the good work
more heads or more skulls? maybe I can help
Very cool
Thanks!
Going to make stuff now!
YES!
I have the styrofoam head but no shoulders. Did you make them or buy like that? Did you do a tutorial?
I did!

Or you can buy mannequin busts from amazon.
I'm fully expecting Allen to do a video one day missing an arm - a whole arm, with him explaining that earlier that day he "nicked" himself with a power saw but that it's ok as it was "just a flesh wound". Lol - he's like Wile E Coyote where no matter what happens to him, he just comes right back like new! Great project Allen, as usual.
"I got better" Im glad you liked the video! being passionate about what you do gives you super powers! cheers!
So true you nailed it
I would cut the top of the bucket with a jagged edge to get rid of the flat line at the bottom of the ghost..
That’s awesome
thanks! I think they are fun!
Love it
spooky
Thank you love the video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
How do you keep fog close to the ground?
Curious how it holds up in wind and rain.
its light weight, but its waterproof so it has all those properties.
Good 'ol Allen "Asbestos Hands" Hopps
that is fairly true lol.
This underpayment is expensive now. Sounds like you spent $26 on underpayment 2 years ago. But it’s$49 for 4x25 sqft. Is there something else that can be used for this?
enough layers and texture on clear plastic sheeting gets good results as well as making clear packing tape dummies
Awesome. Shouldn't you wear a respirator to do this?
No, there are no fumes whatsoever unless you really start melting and/ cause flame.
Your awesome
Hey thanks man!
How about a mummy suit next?
I will try to show some mummy stuff soon
First of all, I did not hear "bucket" just before you put the light in,... Secondly,.... nice Segway after "second hole." Also, I enjoyed the look of the ghost. You do great work.
sometimes things just happen lol. I really should have said "your second hole...gets a fog machine" but I didnt.
I was amused. Thanks for the great content.
If you don't check the heat gun with your hand, how will you ever know it's working?
my thoughts exactly
Can you please do a Christmas
oh man, imagine if you ran the fog through a chiller, that would look creepy
sure would
“Your second hole.” 🥳
shhhhh........
Are you sure that heat gun was hot enough? If only there was a way to test it... Great job Allen. I was creating the graveyard statue using the underlayment when I decided to turn it into a ghost instead! Perfect timing on your part.

lol-Thank you, I appreciate it!
Do you have kids 🤔
