Thanks! I actually work for a haunted house production company, own a haunted house. My professionalism just comes from having worked haunted attractions for many many years. Truly thank you for the kudos,Im gonna read this to my wife.

I absolutely loved this! I was asking around about 'easier' corpsing, and someone showed me this. You had me at... "I'm too lazy for that." Loved your stuff!!! Thank you for sharing.

AWESOME project, no need to add eyes, corpse eyes would be the first thing to rot out. However, adding two of those little led tea lights would be a cool feature. You would have to cut apart the housing, but very do-able.

I corpsed my first skeleton today it turned out AMAZING! THANK YOU!

You are an awesome teacher. I love your annotated comments through the video. I am buying your book. Thank you so much for doing this work and sharing it!

Did this tech over this past weekend, worked like a charm. Did the whole thing in about 45 minutes and looks pretty good. Thanks for the video.

I used this technique last year and it worked great! Thank you!!

Allen your vids have had me trying all kinds of new stuff! This is one of my faves!!!! I have been back yard haunting for 5 years now and have been corpsing the hard way for all of them! Just got one done in 45 min for my first try.... then split it down the back and took it off my skely and did another one! WOW your a life saver a corps under $1.00!!!!!!!!!!! Who said a $1 doesn’t buy anything anymore? Allen you are forever a haunter’s GOD in my book!!! thasnks!!!

This is a game changer for my yard. I started a few years ago with three bluckies. After spending several hours corpsing one with spray adhesive, cotton balls, and expired latex, the other two were never corpsed. I tried to motivate myself by buying two full buckies and two torsos only. Never unboxed because I just didn't want to deal with corpsing. This year I'm going to corpse my torsos and hang on PVC. Extra skin will hang below the torso sort of like you human pelt vid. Thanks for sharing!

the plastic corpse is awesome thanks for the tips and ideas because my inside of the house is Halloween all year round and I was looking for some ideas to make for the garden and you have just helped me out

+Rebecca LACEY very cool!

Not sure what was better, your technique or sense of humor. Awesome tutorial-thank you! I’ll definitely be trying this!

You are amazing Allen. I didnt feel like leaving the shop tp buy the drop cloths but had a boat load of plastic wrap from making clear tape bodys so i gave it a shot. It worked awesome too. Im sure its the same stuff just cheaper in drop cloth form. My haunt owes you so much. We all have learned so much from your dvds and you tube channel. I really and sincerely thank you for all you have done and continue to do for this industry we so love. Cheers to you sir!

So I just finished modifying and corpsing the cheap, blown-plastic skeleton that I've been using for the last several years. It looks superb, and from start to finish took just a couple hours with drying time! Thanks again for sharing this technique.

Amazing !!!!! I love your videos; fun, easy, and cheap ways to do things and I love the captioning that goes with it !

Holy Hell! I gotta say I am Impressed! I spent close to 8 hours taking my Blow molded big lots Skeleton and coating it with paper towel and expensive latex, and THIS looks BETTER!!!!!! Bravo! looks like I will be making a few friends for "Bob" this year! Bravo! Bravo!

Saw this tutorial about 8 years ago but didn't get around to really trying it until today. Did it with paper once, but it wasn't quite as easy. Got ahold of some industrial shrink wrap and holy shit, it's miraculous how easy it was to convert this. Thanks!

👍👍 gr8 idea n cheap too! Good that u incl costs for your projects!! Tks a bunch!!

Tried this out for Halloween and it worked like a charm - even with a self build skeleton. Just now I tried out the same method to make a quick and dirty leather bound book. Works as a charm! So, this is just as good for quick tomes and grimoires. Thanks!

first corpsing tutorial I have ever watched. Fantastic. Can't wait to have a go. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Thank you for the advice, and all the videos. I'm learning some really great things.

Even several years later & having done several corpsing projects i still find myself coming back to Allen's videos for it. I tend to pick up something new whenever i rewatch them.

I have plans to do a new corpsing tutorial, different techniques but lots of fun.

This has to be one of the best corpsing techniques I have seen (and therefore used). We used it this year in an under-the-bed pneumatic slider to great effect (I've got a video of it up on my YT channel)--and the results couldn't have been better. We wound up using one of the Walgreen's plastic skeletons, and once the plastic was on, you couldn't tell it wasn't a Bucky. Excellent video--thank you for sharing and for providing so many awesome tutorials for us Haunters! Cheers!

So glad I ran across your videos. I was dreading trying to use the other messy methods of corpsing with paper towels, latex, etc. Our whole family loves Halloween. My 9 year old daughter loved the video on the human skin pelts!! You're training a whole new generation of haunters!!

I love this technique. It is so simple and amazing. You are awesome!

Awesome! Im glad they turned out well. The statues are so easy- you will love them.

Love the full length, detailed tutorials man. Some of the most informative and entertaining I have seen on KZread, and I have seen A LOT! I hate those time lapse ones.

Just wanted u to know, I watched your tutorial and I purchased a skeleton and I am in the process of "PLastic Corpsing" in June! I`m having a ball, thanx for the video, it`s going to be great!

Thank you so much for your time and efforts. This will be my third year running the Weeping Water Scary Stroll in NE. Thanks to your ideas we will be able to add a lot of top notch effects to the stroll. This year we are expanding our stroll to over 1000 feet in total length as it winds around my 1.5 acre back yard. It is a non profit haunt with all donations going towards a scholarship for the local high school. Last year we were able to do a 500 dollar with just the town attending this year w

Hey Allen, just wanted to say that I have used this technique on a couple bluckies and it works pretty well. I prepare the bluckies for corpsing by giving them an internal pvc frame, and cutting out the ribs, skulls, and hands. Thanks for the great tutorial!

@Poutress "I have zero intentions of making a corpse" I bet alot of guys in prison said that once. Im glad you are likng the videos I try to keep them entertaining because a 20 min tutorial of anything can get old, thank for watching.

Excellent work!!!!! Glad I found your channel, very informative!!! Thank you 🎃

I'm willing to learn whatever techniques you wish to share. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge with us and is helping me come up with ideas for my yard.

Always fun to see more techniques. Awesome job.

thanks, I try to post a video every week. Im glad you like them!

Great Video I am attempting it, Started tonight had to reference back and saw I didnt use enough stain, So excited to add more layers and color tomorrow. Video was done really well, Love the commentary at the bottom. Keep up the good work!!!

@Jooky1 Because the skeletons I used are hard to find, Im doing a tutorial on "fixing" a Blucky. Sounds like I use a few techniques similar to yours, so maybe we can swap details. I need to pick up a Blucky as soon as they hit stores and I will do the tutorial then. I dont have any "unaltered" laying around. Thanks for watching and for your input!

Wow, that is extremely impressive! Such an easy method but still a marvelous result.

Happy Birthday Allen! I really enjoy your videos! I'm going to try this technique for my skeleton. Thanks!!!

Always love your work especially when it's easy. I did with a couple of plastic skulls I had laying around. They look awesome. Thanks!

I knew I’d come across this one again. I saw it a few years back, before I commented on KZread. I have to thank you. I used this technique on a little (about a foot) skeleton a few years ago and I was thrilled with my results. I took everywhere to show my family. Your videos allowed me to create with joy and not fear of screwing it up.

Honestly at first I didn't think it was looking that good....... wow, the clear plastic and brown stain really looks amazing... the translucency is definitely key. Again, another great video Allen!

This is absolutely amazing. Thank you so, so much for posting this. You are my new hero! We are currently constructing a large black demon and this technique will work perfectly. Now on the hunt for black gel stain...

So much had to be edited out to make it under 20 min. This could have been an hour easy, but I hope the technique comes through. Thanks for all the comments and kep em coming. i will make an effort to answer all questions posted. @asmarteru- it helps to pose them a bit, but it will bend , just have stain handy when you position it to touh up opened joints. Thanks for all the comments and subscriptions, keep em coming!

Holy crap! This looks incredibly good! The details of the skin from the plastic are so awesome, and when you showed how the hand looked at 17:14 I was really, really impressed.

I did this today! It came out awesome! Thanks!

Awesome, Im glad it worked so well for you!

Thank-you, I have never made my own corpse before. I followed your technique and he turned out great. If you ignore the bolts in the joints he looks almost real. Thanks for sharing.

Simply awesome stuff Allen! I love your tutorials and this plastic corpsing has to be one of the best and fastest with suck great and quick results! A++ Looking forward to more!

awesome! Im glad the video helped you out a bit. I hope you have a great season!

Love all your tutorials. Even a novice like me can understand and do.

looks amazing! and of course the more tutorials you do the better!

i bought a bunch of body parts from the dollar store and used your tutorial... thanks brotha!

Once again an incredible project and well presented. You truly are the master. Thanks Allen. I always thought corpses were a must have but really wasn't confident in the latex/cotton technique. This I can do!!.

This is off the hook. Great job.

Fantastic! I have been wanting to do corpsing and glad to have found this. Much cleaner and I already have a bag of drop cloths! Wish I'd known about the skellys sooner - I need a bunch. I subscribed. Please do more!

Thank you so much for this how-to! It is awesome!

That was, by far, the easiest corpsing technique I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing!

@abcnoyes2 I use this technique all the time to skin a variety of things- its simple and fast glad you like it!

Just wanted to let you know I corpsed my first skelly today using your method and he looks freakin SICK! Everyone on our haunt has experience with such things but me so they were skeptical that this would work, but they're believers now. Thanks for the video! You made it possible for us to have some corpses without spending days making them. :)

this is genius...incredible technique....thank you.

@fragsxr750 Glad you are enjoying them. I am learning a ton making them.

Soo thrilled I watched this, which had to to countless others. I just finished one and it's not too shabby ! I can't believe you check the heat with your hand lol. I had mine turned off and unplugged, but the sucker still got me. That metal collar should have a warning lol!!!

Fantastic! I'm in. Love the closeup detail. Looks so real! (At least to my limited knowledge)

Very Nice! Simple! Just the way most of us like it. My sister used the heatgun technique on an art piece a few years back. Just with paint and trashbags, she made a full wall of skeletons, looked awesome. I work with a heatgun often and know what it's capable of and been meaning to experiment for my vids. Thanks for these tips. That charred flesh is very legit!

Love the simplicity of the technique...especially the authenticity of the flesh in the end. Got yourself a new subscriber so I can check out the rest of your videos Stiltbeast! (I never did figure out if you were wearing pants or not.)

That was kick ass. Makes we want to go and buy a corpse and some plastic. Now it's time to check out your other vids. Thanks for the great tutorial.

This is awesome. I will probably never want to make one myself, but it's cool to see how it's done!

This is just fantastic, it really looks wonderful!!

Love it! Those eyes are the best! 😂 will try corpsing asap! Thank you for sharing!

@sirbrad4 I have to time lapse sometimes, but I try to make it something that is tedious and that you have seen before. I don't want to waste anyone's time.

I would go about it in a different way. I would plastic corpse it, then use black silicone caulk and apply it to the corpse. then I would rake a comb over it and let that dry. The comb will give the striations that make it look like muscle, the a drybrush with red paint will help make it look like muscle. Then I would blood it.

Nice work! Thanks for sharing.

I must say, Mr H..... I saw the look of this "corpse" as you went along, and it's truly unsettling. As a person who's spent the last 50 years studying homicide investigation in all its iterations, I've truly never seen anything like this one you've created. I've seen photos of remains from clandestine graves and other crime scenes, and your work here is the closest and most true I've seen to the real thing. I'm impressed! Police departments ought to be using them to instruct future investigators, they're that good! I have to say, your work is brilliant. Now I'm going to attempt to make one! I've been learning a lot from your videos on creating cool stuff...but this one stopped me in my tracks! Truly brilliantly done!

good luck making one! go make stuff! reference is key- but you dont have to use reference if it grosses you out!

@JessSuave Awesome! Im glad it worked out for you!

I think taping wadded plastic bags to the skeleton, then heat gunning them before skinning will give you the bulk you need. I would paint it all white then stain/antique it down from there.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this tutorial.. Thank you so much for sharing..

I am corpsing my skelly outside and I had to quit because of the fumes from melting the plastic. My brain hurt real bad for hours. this is a spectacular method but from my experience, wear a mask and work outside. This is potentially dangerous to breath in the plastic fumes...but man, this is such a great technique! I love my skelly:) Thanks for this great tutorial!

Hopefully someone on here can help for UK skeletons-my sources in TX wont help you much Im afraid. Im glad you like it, in a few weeks I might have a video that might help you out.
