You're
walking along a shadowy path, as wisps of fog form around you.
Ahead you spy what appears to be a graveyard,
A rickety fence surrounds old, weathered tombstones.
You start to hear music, coming from somewhere ahead...
and an eerie glow can be seen
getting brighter through the fog.
As you get closer, you realize you've come upon
what appears to be a burial in progress..
There's a hearse, with the casket still hanging out the back
Parked in front of a mausoleum.
Suddenly, you realize you're not alone!
Someone is standing over there!
Or is there?
He's not moving!
Is he Real? Dead? Or is it a mannequin?
Welcome to the Haunted Hearse NorthWest
Show
featuring the hearse named ROSE
A 1976 Centennial Edition Sayer/Scoville Victoria Extender

Did you get a digital picture taken
in the Coffin? and the Haunted Hearse NW Show. |

Michael says:
Rose was found almost by accident. Back in 2001,I was cruisin' the Internet Classifieds
for a new car,
and decided to look under "specialty cars".
Imagine my surprise when ROSE turned up - AND it was in Eastern Washington
to boot!
I called, and after talking to the owner for over an hour, decided I HAD
to buy her!
Rose is 22 1/2 ft long, 5 1/2 ft tall, 6 ft wide, and 6800 lbs. of rolling
steel, with a 500 cu in 4 barrel under the hood,
built on a Cadillac Fleetwood
Limousine frame.
I've added RGB LED Undercarriage Lights, plus RGB LED interior lights in the coach area.
a Crystal Skull and 9 Black Roses on the dashboard , and my favorite pet
Cat - Lazy.
The better to HAUNT you with!!
During Halloween season, The Haunted Hearse show has evolved over the years, from a simple car
display, to a sophisticated show involving graveyard props, specialty
lighting, fog effects, a life-sized mausoleum, and background music.
Each year I try to add something
more to the show, either by upgrading an existing prop, or adding to the
show in general.
In 2005 , I jumped at the opportunity to purchase a REAL Coffin! Made
of 18 gauge steel, and weighing in at 150 pounds. It was used by the previous
owner (a 19 year old) as a BED for almost a year! He lined it with a 4
inch thick Black futon, and propped the lid open. Quite comfy!
I've repainted it, and relined it with a Camping foam Pad and WINE colored
velour upholstery cloth. A lot more room for more people!
UPDATE! Sept 2009- I just got a different coffin for Rose! This one is a
Split Lid with the liner intact! It's a little smaller, making it
lighter, too! Ask if you can have your picture taken in it, if it's not out!
Also, Lucky has been retired, and replaced by Lazy, the sleeping Cat! He loves to lay on the Coffin!
UPDATE! Summer 2016 - The lights under the coach, and in the back have been replaced with RGB LED light strips,
making a much more visual experience! 24 colors - 10 patterns! OH YEAH!

During Halloween Season, when we're on display,
I can "hold a pose", with minimal movement, and
So far, it hasn't happened very often!
But, be warned, please... In 2005, We added fundraising through Mr. Devilin joined me in 2007!

Music,
in the coach,
is supplied by 4 300 watt speakers, and a 200 watt self-powered Subwoofer.
October 2009 - Finally upgraded to a GOOD CD/MP3/CD-R player, that includes USB and SD CARD adaptors
That means HOURS of nonstop music without having to mess with changing disks! OH, YEAH!
I play a lot of MIDNIGHT SYNDICATE, and NOX ARKANA, plus other various artists, while on display,
including DEATHWATCH BEETLE REPAIRMAN (listen for "The Carny of Mr Dark"!!)
Wait!
What's that! ROB ZOMBIE!?!
