We go all-out decorating our house for Halloween – everyone wants to know how we made a Stranger Things character float
A COUPLE has gone all-out decorating their home for Halloween — including a Stranger Things character float.
People were impressed and stunned by the effort they put into their holiday decorations.
Dave and Aubrey (@horrorprops) showed off their decor in a video with over 170,000 TikTok followers.
The two took viewers on a walk-through of their house, including a giant arch with a neon “HorrorProps” sign and a decked-out backyard.
Their lawn, now a temporary cemetery, housed tombstones and masked scarecrows, as well as pumpkin zombies behind the wheel.
Skeletons and creatures filled up the entire space, including the monster from Stranger Things.
There’s even a clown manning a balloon stand, “selling balloons” for just ten cents apiece.
People were blown away by one piece of decor — their floating Max replica from the Stranger Things show.
The couple explained how the key to the float was her low weight, with her entire frame made out of pool noodles.
They used a heat gun to melt and adhere the pool pieces together, creating her body.
The two added structure filler to fill out the prop, making sure to reduce stuffing by shaping out her body parts.
Then, they added PVC for stabilization and dressed up the pool noodle doll.
For the head, they used foam glue to attach it to the main body, added plastic hands from Amazon, and even glued shoes to the frame for stabilization.
To get her up to the sky, they used translucent braided spider wire, threading through the chest so the doll wouldn’t spin, and hung her from their house to a pole.
People were stunned by their dedication to the bit: “This is hands down the best Halloween decoration I’ve ever seen,” said one commenter.
“It would give me chills walking by and seeing her floating.”
“So cool of you to share how you did it so others can recreate,” praised another.
