The Setup
I saw this idea on one of the forums and thought it was a great idea for Halloween. I used my Da-lite overhead projector and my stripped Goodmans monitor setup , projected on to the rear of  a screen made from frosted shower curtains bought from Kmart. I hung the screen from my garage door  and used the movie Monsters Inc.. Naturally, the image is visible when the sun sets. It was a great way to add some Halloween aura for the Trick or Treaters without scaring the little ones.


Here it is!
It is a 4 1/2 minute video. The first half is the setup and the second half is the projection.
