I am a Graphics and 3D Animation teacher who has been a lifelong fan of The Haunted Mansion and Halloween has always been my favorite holiday. After I started creating Haunted Mansion-inspired clips for my classroom and home haunt, I decided to let everyone in on the fun! My animations have been featured in home decorating blogs and haunts all over the United States on local news stories. Do you need a ghost for your haunt? There's always room for 1 more! Happy Haunting!
Sincerely,

If you haven't had any experience in digital projection decorating, hopefully these steps will make it a little easier.
Step 1: Choose the files you wish to purchase.
My pricing is very fair compared to what other HM merch is being sold out there. If you have the means, buying the whole collection is far more cost effective in the long run, as when I add more content to the collection, you can always redownload from your purchase link to access the new files. :)
Step 2: Purchase your selections.
You will be sent a confirmation email and links to download your files.
Check your email spam folder as many people find the email from Sellfy there.
Step 3: Download the files to your computer. I do not advise trying to access the files from your mobile device directly. If you run into issues I can always resend a confirmation invoice to you.
Step 4: Place the digital folder on a USB drive or thumbdrive.
Step 5: You will need an affordable LED projector with a USB slot and mp4 player. Amazon offers them at varying prices. Get the one with the most lumens for your price range. More lumens means more projection light per distance from the projector to projection area.
*You can also play the files from a USB stick to a large format flatscreen TV (they usually have USB slots) and place towards a picture window. I even play them in my classroom from my computer to my projector.
Step 6: Plug your USB thumbdrive into the projector’s (or flatscreen) USB slot.
Start the projector/flatscreen and search for your files in the projector browser menu. Your folder should show up there.
Select it and select/checkmark the file(s) you want to play.
Step 7: Play! Movies repeat. You can project on interior or exterior walls, from inside to windows covered with white sheets or white craft paper to be seen outside. If you would like a more transparent effect, you can buy transparent Atmos FX Hollusion fabric that has grommets for hanging. Great stuff. Opaque shower curtains are also an affordable alternative. Do not use clear plastic or fabric with a sheen. Hang your fabric, light other props from behind and project from in front or behind the scrim fabric and you can see THROUGH the ghosts. Many people have placed their projectors behind tombstones to hide them from viewers. PLEASE make sure your pojectors are secured and/or supervised at all times. Nothing is worse that a needed element for your haunt 'walking away.'
Step 8: If you wish to create a complete atmosphere with sounds/music, purchase tracks at Apple Music or access Haunted Mansion soundtracks/sound effects from a streaming app like Spotify, or try visiting http://soundsofdisneyland.com/ to play your sounds from there!
Best of luck and I'm here if you have any questions about your purchase!
