It’s the prerogative of pirates to show up where they want, when they want. Otherwise, they’d just be sailors! And while pirates typically instill fear and chaos when they come ashore unannounced, we’re pretty sure they’ll create the opposite effect when they come to your neighborhood. When the bone-headed buccaneers of Bone Chillers: Pirates Decoration Collection drop anchor at your home, they’ll turn your Halloween display into the most entertaining spectacle this side of the Caribbean.
The third treasure in the Bone Chillers franchise brings maritime mayhem to your Halloween display with rousing sea shanties, epic sword fights, and comedic chaos that proves even undead pirates know how to have a good time. These seafaring skeletons are about to make your house the most popular port of call on Halloween night. Let us show you how!
Window Wonders on the High Seas
For many Halloween decorators, they’ll want to transform their home’s windows with Window Projection Material. It’s one of the easiest – and most compelling – ways to decorate with AtmosFX Decorations. Simply place the material in a prominent window, focus your project onto it, and let the maritime mayhem begin!
Whether you are trying to convince neighbors and trick-or-treaters that your living room has been transformed into a subterranean brig, or perhaps the ship’s crow’s nest, Bone Chillers: Pirates has you covered. Imagine trick-or-treaters approaching your house only to see skeletal pirates weathering a supernatural storm right in your living room window!
Don’t miss the chance to display Bone Chillers: Pirates in multiple windows. Set up the Pirate Band in one window, then have the rowdy revelry of the Sloshed Scalywags playing out in a side window. Perhaps when the Captain’s Lament is playing in one window, condemned skeletons are walking the plank elsewhere.
Wall-to-Wall Maritime Mayhem
Large wall projections allow you to showcase the full scope of these pirate adventures – indoors or out! We’ve seen plenty of terrific large-scale maritime displays over the years, and no doubt, Bone Chillers: Pirates will be an essential component of such installations. Garage doors and unbroken sides of houses work exceptionally well for massive displays, especially those that feature tossing waves, such as Pirates at Sea. After all, there’s no better way to convince your Halloween visitors that they are on a pirate galleon than getting them a little bit seasick!
Interior walls work equally well. Create atmospheric backdrops of skeleton swordfights and of grog-influenced revelry that will keep your guests entertained throughout the night. Just be prepared for party guests to start talking like pirates themselves – it’s surprisingly contagious! Arrrrrrgh!
TV, Tablets, and the Decorating Disc XL
Don’t underestimate the charm of these pirate skeletons on smaller screens. TVs and tablets offer intimate viewing experiences that allow audiences to appreciate all the comedic details of these skeletal sailors. So too the Decorating Disc XL – this circular projection screen allows you to display Bone Chillers: Pirates in locations people would otherwise not suspect.
Bone Chillers: Pirates is especially entertaining on TV displays – set the entire decoration on loop as people come and go from the room. Kids will love it! And if you want skeletons all day and all night, mix-in Bone Chillers and Bone Chillers 2.
Tablets work wonderfully for creating surprise pirate encounters throughout your Halloween display. Hide them in unexpected places – inside a treasure chest, for example, or perhaps at the end of a spyglass. Guests will be delighted to stumble upon tiny skeleton pirate hijinks in unexpected corners of your display.
Speaking of unexpected corners, the Decorating Disc XL is great for that. Bone Chillers: Pirates is optimized in circular format for display on the disc. It makes it easy to display in your window, hanging from a tree or balcony, or anywhere else a visitor might find surprising.
Hollusion Magic on the Seven Seas
The crown jewel of displaying Bone Chillers: Pirates is certainly the Hollusion effect. Using AtmosFX’s Hollusion Projection Material, you can make these seafaring skeletons appear to materialize from the ocean mist itself – a sight that will leave viewers questioning whether they’ve wandered into Davey Jones’ Locker.
Set up your Hollusion display in the darkest area of your yard, perhaps near some nautical props or artificial fog to enhance the atmosphere. The Pirates at Sea individual decorations are particularly effective with Hollusion displays. As the skeletal crew appears to battle storms and walk planks in your yard, onlookers will feel like they’ve entered another realm. Add some sound effects of creaking ship timber and crashing waves, and you’ll have created an immersive pirate experience that is sure to attract trick-or-treaters from far and wide!
For an extra touch, consider setting up your Hollusion display near water features like fountains or pools, or use fog machines to create the illusion of sea spray. The semi-transparent nature of the Hollusion material combined with atmospheric effects will make these pirate skeletons seem truly supernatural.
Ahoy, Matey! – Pairing with Other Pirate Decorations
One of the exciting aspects of Bone Chillers: Pirates is how well it pairs with other nautical-themed Halloween decorations. For decorators who already own Ghostly Apparitions 3 Decoration Collection, the Pirate Ghost individual decoration makes a perfect companion. Imagine the storytelling possibilities – perhaps the Pirate Ghost is the captain of this undead crew, or maybe he’s a rival pirate engaging in supernatural battles with these bony buccaneers.
Set Sail for Halloween Adventure
From window portholes to wall-spanning ship decks, from intimate tablet treasures to mystical Hollusion seas, Bone Chillers: Pirates offers endless possibilities to bring swashbuckling adventure to your Halloween celebration. These skeletal sailors remind us that sometimes the best Halloween displays are those that combine just the right amount of spookiness with a hearty dose of fun.
