April 2013 Jersey Devil Home Haunters Meeting

We had our monthly meeting this past Sunday (04/21/13).  Our newest member, Araniella, was able to make her 1st meeting with us. Now after meeting us, she is still will to come back :) 

The meeting  consisted of members working on existing project they had started or presenting demos. Death's Door worked on her PVC candles, Araniella worked on making spooky dolls and I presented were I was at in "corpsing" out funkin (foam pumpkin) I was working on. 

Demos were given on:

1. Making latex make-up appliance on a budget
2. Creating super cheap and easy make-up pustules/sores
3. Fake glass shards out of used clear plastic walk-in freezer door panes.
4. Zombie arm using your arm, cheap plastic warp, duct tape and bubble wrap (you will need a 2nd person to "tape you up" though

In addition, we all discussed our future plans and projects for later meetings.  Death's Door and I then recorded a segment on her PVC candle making for the next podcast segment.

Our next get together will take use to the National Haunters Convention on May 4th, 2013.  For those in the Philladelphia, PA area and how may be interested here the link:
