- Make a huge 7ft Grim Reaper out of wood, pvc pipe, and cloth. This cost me $25 in materials and took a weekend to make. Cloth can be found cheap at your local Good Will store or ask friends.
The plug is called a Vampire plug and can be found here:

Fantastic job!!! Wish I had someone who loved Halloween like me and would put together decorations like u!! Love this idea and the fact it has an appearance of something real standing there instead of cheap and kiddy looking.
@Kevin Edwards Thank u Kevin and I do just that.
This turned out amazing. What kind of cloth is this?
Its incredible! I love the ghost of Christmas future.
the only things I would have done differently is I would have added a skull face inside the hood, with the possible addition of light up eyes
and of course, it can't be the grim reaper without his scythe
I found just the perfect hidden skeletal face prop at Lowes the other day. It's just the hooded head, with black veil hiding a skeleton face behind. When activated by sound or light, a battery operated voice box says a few creepy lines while laughing. The face lights up from behind the veil and it's eyes flash in red! I plan to build this into a reaper like in this video!
@@SPCLPONY I found a "fossil" of a pterodactyl at the thrift store, I'm using that to top the scythe for my reaper this year. It's a resin replica, so I'm giving it a metallic finish, filling the eye sockets with hot glue and putting some of those dollar tree lights in the eye holes before I mount it on a broom handle.
Looks awesome
How cool is this? Nice work!!!!
Great project and display. TFS
That looks really good. Nice work
Thanks. It might be coming for you

Great video👍
Great Job my friend!!
Thanks for the visit
Fantastic!
Awesome!
This is amazing, I plan on making this for Halloween this year, will start here is a few weeks!! Sad that this video uploaded after Halloween last year, or else I would have done it.
Nice video thank you. I see you don't reply to anyone who asks questions about your video, which is kinda sad. Wish you had shown each step from start to finish though. And a material list would have been handy too. I will try to copy this someday, but with a more proportionate head and hands.
I have a lot of stuff going on and forgot about this video honestly. I just make them on the side from time to time.
Thanks! This will be my weekend project with my nephew!
Have fun! Hope it turns out great.
Danm that thing is cool and creepy!🎃💀😱

You should! Get started!
@@MakerMaxCorbett maybe next year
Lol seems your G-Reaper is kinda healthy
This turned out amazing. What kind of cloth did you use where to get it?
Max,if you redo this vid for Halloween,don’t forget to show you kept the head loops in line with zip ties and your have to “Carefully,”Heat gun the dollar store skeleton hands to form them into gestures.I only know because I’m faithfully following your tutorial as we speak.
Thanks. I will make other videos at some time, but not this one.
super cool!!
Really like the led flicker bulbs. Made lanterns with them last year
Nice sticker on the tool box :)
Some guy gave that to me.
Cool could you tell me what light you used please and those blinking white lights in the background
can i wear a regular adult orange witch Halloween costume with orange ribbon belt,and some pumpkin light up necklace to go trick or treating with kids to get some free candy about October 31st,around the neighborhood,and can I use a plastic bag for Halloween candy of trick or treating.
it was realy cool. but there should have been a skull inside the hood😁
I did not have one. The only thing I bought was the large flickering light. a skull that size is hard to find and probably $20.
Can I wear a Marilyn Monroe regular adult Halloween costume to go trick or treat with kids to get some free candy about October 31st,around the neighborhood,and can I use a purple pumpkin pail for Halloween candy of trick or treating
Can I wear a diy green witch Halloween costume with green ribbon belt and some light up green pumpkin necklace to go trick or treating with kids to get some free candy about October 31st,around the neighborhood,and can I use a plastic bag for Halloween candy of trick or treating.

Can I wear a diy purple witch Halloween costume with purple ribbon belt,and some light up purple bat bead necklace to go trick or treating with kids to get some free candy about October 31st,around the neighborhood,and can I use a plastic bag for Halloween candy of trick or treating.
Awesome job but he needs a syth
Forget the heat shrink the first time? Black stuff seemed to appear magically. Lol. Hate when that happens 😄
Why not just spray starch?
Great job. Subscribed immediately
Is that Kenny from South Park?
How many sheets did you use? Trying to do this for Halloween but I don’t see a list of products you used.
I used 2 bed sheets but use whatever you want. 2 canvas drop cloths would be more durable but heavier. Good Will should have bed sheets.
That conduit in the wood holds up the light fixture well, its strong enough or did i miss a step?
Looks great, two quick questions. It looks like you added another piece of PEX for the shoulder/chest area, correct? Also, you used two pieces of cloth, one for the body and one for the hood/cloak, right?
I did use 2 pieces of cloth as I did not have 1 single piece big enough. If you are buying cloth it is cheaper to get 2 smaller pieces plus I think it is easier to work with. I am not sure about the PEX, but do what you think needs to happen to make yours look great!
What kind off paint did you use ?
Regular latex paint I'm just afraid will crack unless the easy sand prevents that
I used what ever paint I had laying around, water based house paint interior. It has cracked a little but pieces have not fallen off from moving it around.
Maker Max Corbett cool that's definitely something I'm doing this year , want to e not Halloween even more this time around .
Knowing what you know based on yours, would you use the sand again or just straight up paint ?
I’m going to put some of there’s in the woods near by in some sketchy places to hopefully mess with anyone who passes
Oh yeah! fantastic
Must be Don Trump version lol. Them hands tiny. Super cool overall though. Totally wanna copy this and try to make a huge one with huge hands. Thanks for the video!
Huge hands would be scary too.
Awesome 👏 how does the easy sand hold up outdoors?
Honestly it has been good outside. The wind was the biggest issue as it will blow the thing around facing the house and not the road. Also storing it is a pain as it is in a hot attic on it's side. That is where the most damage has come from.
Neat idea, but where's the skull?
What you can't see makes it scarier.
Does the "monster mud" cloth stay somewhat flexible for storage?
Yes it does. There is not a thick coat on it so it moves like a wet blanket all the time.
What did you use for the cloth? and what size is material ? Please
An old drop cloth and bed sheets. Just keep adding more if you need more sheets. Any size works.
where is his scathe?
I have one, left it off on the video! Boo
Now what kind of lightbulb did you use to make its flick like that
I bought it at Home Depot in the Halloween section. Called LED Flicker Light or something.
What kind of strobe lights are you using in the background? I am looking to do something similar in my yard?
They were purchased from the Christmas light emporium. Search strobes on their site.
Can I make me a diy skeleton costume with some Black skirt,some skeleton t shirt,some Black/white striped tights, some black wig with white highlights, some skeleton Halloween makeup,some light up skeleton headband,some light up skeleton necklace,a skeleton wings and a skeleton glove to go trick or treating with kids to get some free candy,about October 31st,around the neighborhood,and can I use a skeleton trick or treat tote bag for Halloween candy of trick or treating.
What did you use for the hood and head??
Just random cloth that I had and an old canvas drop cloth.
What you use for the motion trigger
Nothing, it just stays on all the time at night.
what is the music called at the end of the video?
I am not sure. It is all just free youtube music to add to videos.
What kind of tubing did you use for the head frame?
It looked like PEX tubing its a water line should be able to find at any home store.
I used PEX from Home Depot or Lowes. Cheap and easy to bend with heat. You can also use regular PVC but will require a lot more heating.
Thank you so much. I made a 9 foot tall once several years back using an old xmas tree and chicken wire. It looked great at the time but I'm hoping to do a better version this year.
Can anyone link me to where he got these hands?
Home Depot or other halloween store.
Just buy one
Why buy one when you can make it and probably cheaper and better looking?
For more than 100$?
The ones you buy are not 7ft tall or are a lot of money and made like crap. Plus I love making things from stuff laying around. I bought nothing for this project, I had it all.
What kind of cloth did you use to cover the framework?
Это ж надо такое уродство соорудить...
