| In
our Halloween |
| yard
haunt display, |
| we
try to keep our |
| lighitng
simple. |
| |
|
We use 100 watt outdoor |
| Par-38
spotlights |
| and
weather resistance |
|
lamp holders. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We've
changed over to the metal spotlight holders |
| instead
of the plastic ones because they are more durable. |
|
|
Here is an example of the spotlight holder that
you can stake in |
| the
ground and a colored Par-38 outdoor flood light. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Over
the years, we've learned the hard way |
| that
the spotlight holders corrode and collect water |
| in
the socket if they are not covered. |
|
| We've
built small boxes to cover each floodlight and |
|
holder. They hide the light when you are
looking at |
| our
display from a distance since they are invisible |
| to
the eye at night in the yard. |

our wooden weather protector. |

|
Here are a couple of the covers we built. |

Here is a modified spotlight holder that we use |
|
to illuminate our zombie on the roof. The
lamp holder |
|
is fastened to a 2"x4" piece of wood and
the cover is |
| also
attached. |
|
|
|
|

|
This is what we used to build our yard haunt |
| lighting
and weather protection. |
