Mounting your Flying Crank Ghost can be a challenge, especially if you’ve got nothing above it to hang it from. The Wolfstone Group had this same problem and came up with the idea to Mount a Flying Crank Ghost using electrical metallic tubing (EMT). Its a really creative and simple idea that allows you to get your Flying Crank Ghost really high off the ground. You’ll need to start by pounding the ends of three 1/2″ EMT conduit completely flat. Next, you’ll bend the flattened ends to almost 90 degrees and then drill a hole through the flattened end. Once flattened and drilled, you’ll simply bolt it to your Flying Crank Ghost frame at it’s three main points. The great part about this is you can join multiple lengths of EMT with EMT tubing couplers. You’ll have to determine how much wind you’re going to have to account for when deciding how high to go, but it shouldn’t be too much of a stretch to get your Flying Crank Ghost up at least 10 feet if not more! Items needed to complete this include: Flying Crank Ghost assembly (3) – 10′ sections of 1/2″ EMT (3) – 1/2″ EMT tubing couplets (3) – nuts / bolts to secure EMT to FCG frame Black spray paint Shop These Materials on Amazon 1/3HP Replacement Ceiling Fan Motor (for FCG builds) Braided Fishing Line — thin gauge for rigging 120" Wide White Sheer Voile Fabric x 25 Yards Affiliate Disclosure: HauntersList.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program.

Raven Manor Mausoleum...
posted by SkeleTony
When does your passion for home haunting become an obsession? When you have to file a building permit to construct a temporary Mausoleum in your yard. Which is good, because I don’t think that Raven Manor had to file for a permit, but the passion for their yard haunt is second to none. The Mausoleum is a perfect fit in their front yard cemetery, but it’s real purpose is to house their flying crank ghost, Eleanor. That’s right, they built it for their flying crank ghost, how awesome is that! The Mausoleum stands 9′ tall by 10′ deep by 8′ wide and was framed in sections that are connected by carriage bolts. It looks superb and is the perfect house for Eleanor. While there really isn’t a step by step tutorial for this build, they do have the plans used to construct the Mausoleum as well as some general information about the framing of it, which should be more than enough to get your creative juices flowing.

Dr Kreepy’s FCG...

For the longest time I struggled with how to build a simple Flying Crank Ghost. The guide at Phantasmechanics.com (R.I.P.) seemed ridiculously complicated to my simple mind. Then I found Dr. Kreepy’s YouTube videos and everything clicked. My FCG might have even flown had the party I was building it for not been cancelled, but that’s another story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXD9XGIt83Y Shop These Materials on Amazon 1/3HP Replacement Ceiling Fan Motor (for FCG builds) Braided Fishing Line — thin gauge for rigging 120" Wide White Sheer Voile Fabric x 25 Yards Affiliate Disclosure: HauntersList.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program.
