To continue on with my trend of making an instructable for a contest i submit to you, how to make a haunted house flash light.

You may ask what's a haunted house flashlight? for me its just a normal flashlight that both fits into your costume and is practical to light up the rooms when some one has lost something or to temporarily blind a rowdy patron :D (trust me i have had to do that more than once).

this instructable is less of a guide and more to give ideas on how to add a light into your costume for not only safety but for look as well. i will be showing you how i made the 2 lights i have made so far

In my case I chose a bunch of cheap LED head lamps from my local bargain/ junk store and mostly because it was cheap. I wanted a hands free light mostly because i have my hands filled with fake weapons and with it being on my head i will drop it alot less and makes if alot easy to light up things just by looking at it

When looking for a light you want to use keep in mind this must in some way fit with your costume/ character, that its some what easy to alter and that it can take a punishment.

I chose my first blue headlights to work with a helmet I have but now slowly I think I'm not going to use the helmet this year, which is why the gray lights make an appearance but more on that later.
