How-To:  Corpsification of a skeleton

OK, I admit it: I was pretty excited about getting to use the word “corpsification” in any context. But that doesn’t mean this tutorial from the folks at Yard Haunt about how to make a clean, sterile, white plastic skeleton into a nasty, rotting, reeking bag o’ bones is any less cool. In case you’re wondering, the “Bucky” skeleton referred to in this and many other haunt prop tutorials is a brand name of Anatomical Chart Company, which sells serious anatomical models to educational institutions but also does a tidy trade in “4th quality” seconds on the Halloween market.
