You can purchase “Poltergeist Plastic” as an accessory to Big Scream TV from your local party store or you can purchase rigid, transparent plastic or acryllic sheeting from your local home center, lumber yard, or hardware store. The cheapest and thinnest rigid plastic sheeting works the best because thicker plastic will produce image doubling, which will make the head blurry.

A new-age digital twist on and age old idea- Read the HISTORY behind “Pepper’s Ghost.”

If the TV is propped up, make sure it is on something sturdy. Here, it’s resting in a cooler under a garage window.

We’ve added a tree in the background. Set up some sort of props, and diorama scene for the head to “float over.”

Later that night... Here’s a view outside the garage window. We also placed a red light on the tree. You can see the head floating in front of the dead tree branches.

Here’s the same effect with a much more elaborate scene set-up in the background. Your imagination is the only limit!
