TECH TIP TUESDAY:

Corpsing! There are so many ways to do it, and this video shows the method we like the best.

This is a pretty classic technique using cheesecloth and latex. The real "secret sauce" is our Dura-Grime and Dura-Blood, which really make the painted latex cloth look like zombified skin!

Want to try this method to bring some of your props back to life? Check out our new Corpsing Kit here:

TECH TIP TUESDAY:

Introducing WireMaster!

This is something we have been working on behind the scenes here and we're hoping it will be a really useful tool for our customers. WireMaster is a free, browser-based application that allows you to easily create custom wiring diagrams or our products!

Currently the program is in beta and still being developed, but we wanted to invite all our FrightProps customers and haunt tech fanatics to test it out and help us improve and fine tune it. So, if you're a user of our products, head on over to https://www.frightprops.com/wiremaster and check it out!

Let us know what you like, what you don't like, and any bugs or inaccuracies you come across.

This is still a work in progress, so wiring might not be 100% correct at this point, so please check with us before following any of the wiring guides produced using it. As we continue to tweak and finalize it the accuracy will improve.

Let us know what you think and become a WIREMASTER!
