Banging Masuoleum

One of my many PROP1 controlled props from Halloween 2006; a variation on the monster-in-a-box (MIB). This prop is a mini mausoleum (used to hause some lighting and smoke effects) whose doors BANG and a creepy voice emanates from within when someone approaches.

The PROP1 is triggered by a PIR hidden in the decoration on the front. When triggered it fires up a Rogue Robotics uMP3 for sound effects, and a uses some code (contributed by Jon) to trigger a "box pusher" cylinder in a pseudo-random fashion. Chains across the front door add a nice rattle. It was quite popular.
