Make snakes

Allen Hopps of StiltbeastStudios walks through a simple, budget-friendly method for building realistic, posable snake props suitable for haunted attractions or home haunts. The snakes are constructed from common hardware and craft store materials, resulting in pieces that hold a variety of poses and produce dramatic movement when attached to even lightly animated rigs. Each snake can be customized in color and pattern to add variety throughout a scene. The technique scales well, making it easy to populate an entire room with a convincing infestation.
