Add that extra
touch of class to your Haunted House with our Creep Fence. We at TheHorrorDome.com
like to add that little extra touch to make a good prop a great prop.
So with that in mind here is our CREEP FENCE.
Materials Needed per each fence section:
2 - 1" x 2" x 8' pieces of
ferring strip
4 - 10 ' pieces of 1/2 inch PVC
Some wood screws
Some fence tips ( make your own or get
some party whistles in the shape of a diamond )
1 - can of flat black spray paint
Some red, yellow and black paint ( mix
these colors to make the rust color )
1
- First drill 12 holes, 8 inches apart into a piece of 1" x 2" x 8'
ferring strip. Make sure you start 4 inches away from the edge of the
ferring strip and then you will end up with 4 inches on the other side
also.
2
- Cut the PVC into sections of 40 inches in length, this way you get
the most out of the PVC. You should get 3 pieces for every 10 foot piece.
12 pieces will make up 1 section of the fence.
3 - Assemble the fence
by inserting the 40 inch pieces of PVC into the holes you drilled earlier.
4
- Measure 7 inches from the tip of the PVC to the point where the wood
connects. Do the same on the other side also.
5
- Secure the PVC in place by using wood screws. Do this for each piece,
top and bottom.
6
- To save time we used party whistles that were just the shape we needed
for the fence tips. We filed the bottom edges down so that they would
fit into the PVC, then they were glued into place.
7
- Paint the fence with a flat black spray paint and let it dry. Then
we mixed up some rust colored paint using red, yellow and some brown.
This will make the fence look old and rusty. Use your own discretion
where to put the rust. For the best result dab the rust on with a small
brush.
8
- Make the posts out of 2 inch PVC and cut the PVC the same size as
the fence bars ( 40 inches ) . Then we used glow in the dark skulls
that fit over the PVC perfectly. Then we glued each skull to the posts
and painted it. After that we drove some pipe into the ground and slipped
the posts over the pipe and then screwed 2 screws into the back of the
posts to secure them. Then we attached the fence to the posts with some
2 inch angle irons.
9 - There you have it
and old, dirty, rusting fence that no one in there right mind would
have in front of their house. Pretty cool Humm...................
For an added CREEPY
appearance let the weeds grow until Halloween is over.
