Ok..

First, thank you for even reading this post, as I know I am not a regular
(infact I don't recall posting here ever before, though I might have). That
being said.. onto the details.

A local message forum of car ethusiasts were chatting about local
"ghost/haunted sightings"... and long story short, have decided to visit a
particular "haunted" place at a particular time on a particular day to "hunt
some ghosts.."

I'm looking for relatively inexpensive ways to achieve operation, "make
ghost hunters crap themselves..." Who's with me?

I was thinking simple things such as yellow LED's (not the superbright clear
type) glowing when fishing line is "tripped" (removing a piece of plastic
between two metal poles, thus completing the circuit type of thing) to give
the appearance of eyes (but would be nice to throw on a sound circuitry as
well which would give a "shhhhhhewwww" type of sound or something else half
believable)... but staying on continuously is definitely NOT a good thing..
so a timed circuit in which the "shhhheww" sound (or whatever) would play,
end and the eyes would be lit for a total of maybe 10 seconds...

I'm no electrical engineer at all.. however, I have made my own PCB's and
following circuits from Electronics Handbook (when it was around and if it
still is then no one carries it around here) and I solder/desolder quite
often. In other words, I'm not intimidated at all by following a schematic
and building the circuit.

I have three wireless 9v driven camera's (spy cams) already, which I plan to
utilize as well in hopes to get videos of these "ghost hunters" hopefully
getting the crap scared out of them... which of course would expeditiously
made into a MPG or AVI for all of you to view.. My way of saying,
"thank you for your help"...

Also, any ideas are welcome as well... I would LOVE for this to be a
"success" (for US that is..)

TIA!!!
