CAMO NETTING FOR HALLOWEEN


We've been looking for a source of camouflage netting in unusual colors that could be used for both building a Haunted Attraction and Home Haunts. In the past, you had to go military surplus stores, but could only find the standard military Olive Drab color. But we finally found a company that carries a great selection of very unusual camouflage. Below are a few helpful hints on using camouflage netting for your Halloween event.

Camo Netting is a very versatile and strong material. It can be used as a canopy over a maze or haunted scene, and/or as the entire "building" materiel for a maze. There is no cutting, nailing, or painting! Just rig a wire or Tie line grid at least 8' above the floor and let your imagination decide on the layout. You can hide monsters or effects in the "walls". Add a little fog and some lights and the guest's visual depth perception is constantly being fooled. The maze seems to go on forever and end abruptly. Ghouls pop out of nowhere.

Camo Netting makes a good, cheap, and reusable costume. Dress you monsters in black or camouflage clothing and cover with a small net or use the personal camo system. Now just add a mask and you have a scary creature that materializes out of nowhere. Throw a few nets over your walls; no detail painting. Make creepy shafts of light with a blast of fog and a floodlight on the other side of the net. Add some Jute, also called Erosion Cloth, and you have a very believable swamp or forest.

Got Camo carries one of the largest selections of specialty camouflage netting on the Internet including; Standard Military Colors, Red, Black, Blue, Snow, Desert, Urban, Devil Red. These different colors allow you to use camo net in more places than before.
