Lighting is everything in a haunted house

spooky lighting effects for Halloween

Traditional haunted houses might be poorly lit, but proper use of gobo lights and designs could turn your attraction into a true fright fest. As Halloween approaches and planning begins, invest in some custom gobo designs and projectors to truly scare your victims.

A haunted house provides numerous opportunities for applications of gobo images. From shining moving patterns on walls and floors to casting the illusion of fire using a ECO Spot LED40-WE LED water effect projector, gobos can amplify the ambience and crank the scare factor up. If you're unsure of the best use of gobos in your haunted house, here are some suggestions:

  • Shadowy shapes – Casting shadows on walls, curtains and the floor using a gobo image can create unique illusions to frighten guests and set the mood in a haunted house. From severed hands to bats, you can customize any gobo you want for the desired theme.
  • Whirling patterns – Want to disorient and confuse patrons? Use patterned gobos and projectors to create a moving landscape that will play tricks on their eyes, make them see moving shadows and jump at the slightest noise.
  • Strobing lights – Traditional strobe lights are disorienting, but combine a strobing effect with a gobo image to truly frighten your visitors. A strobing light that suddenly flashes an image will shock those in your haunted house while adding an element of surprise.
