Haunted House Custom Basement

[TheGallows]

A while back I purchased some lego from one of the owners of Brick Bricks, a terminator salvation MOC, a few other bits and this along with a bulk lot of loose. After asking him I found out it was the beginning to a basement for the HH. Its been sat in the cupboard since, until a few day back when I fitted the HH to it a started covering the floors and adding details. Now don't get me wrong the majority of the work was not done by me, he is an amazing builder and has added secret passage ways sliding doors, prison cells, and there is a battery pack installed ready for a lighting kit. 

Any way just thought I'd share, get some tips and feedback. I've got a brick link order coming with various bits and some more olive bushes and lots of olive grasses, which I think will finish the front off nicely. I haven't started on the back, but was thinking of a graveyard, with a tree? I was also thinking of a large lamp post and the street. Much bigger and gothic style rather than the modular ones. Anyone have any ideas for this?

Looks pretty good although have you considered adding dead trees

Love it. You could borrow the tree that comes with the Mystery Mobile for the graveyard. The Scooby sets have a lot of elements that would work well.

Nice work looks great. Checkout the tree in 9463 and the grave in 850487.  For the lamppost try looking at the modular MOC thread for ideas.

Very nice. I see it comes with a moderator included ......

Cheers guys. Yeah I like that grave, I'll do something like that but have 3 or 4 of them with one knocked over. I actually have that set with the tree, but think it would be to big.

I like the idea of a dead tree, that could work.

Knocked up a couple of graves, pretty happy with them, but might tweek them a bit once I've added some texture to the back. Wish there was more space as I think 4 would have looked excellent.

That's pretty good! Would you be able to tilt one sideways a bit like as if it had sunken on one side?

Nice work.  I like the basement dungeon idea.  And may try that on mine if I can scrounge enough parts to build up.  I've always thought the HH is perfect when presented on top of a hill.  

Ideas wise, I extended the porch by wrapping it around one side of the house from the front to the side entrance.   And on LDD I also created a walkway that is also covered to a garage to house the ecto / vamp hearse.  Will take some photos when I get home.  Good luck with your build.

First attempt at a gothic lampost, just built from using loose lego, no bricklink order as yet. Pretty pleased with it actually, have to change how its fitted to he base but apart from that I think I might leave it as is.

Wow! Looks great!
