Halloween mirror ghouls anyone?

[Mr.Meeseeks]

I watched the new ghost busters and loved those mirror ghouls: https://youtu.be/Icfi2m7fHtk
And wanted to know if anyone has had Halloween fun with their mirrors?

Also saw this, perhaps to try maybe motion or light off triggered:

Pretty impressive effects!

Maybe I’ll make my first MMM
… Monster Mirror Module?

I like this idea! It would be pretty simple to buy one of those DVDs, rip the video you want and then load it onto your mirror. Play the image in a module, possibly with some basic timer & looping controls.

I would think some of the ghostly apparition ones would work best. Just have something staring at you out of the mirror for a bit and then fade away.

I like it! What about the zombie invasion DVD on the MM, every day when a new Walking Dead episode is online on netflix?

Excellent idea, we still have a month to finish this, so it is ready for Halloween.

Would be best, if we can avoid the proprietary content though, and find something that can be distributed together with the module free for everyone to use.

Is anyone working on this?

I am not (yet ), but this seems to be a good starting place:

@Jopyth Awesome!

We’re hosting a Halloween party, so this would be great to have running through the night!

[bhepler]

Do we have a generic video file playing module?

@bhepler We’ve got this: https://github.com/ptrbld/MMM-Podcast

Who can animate the ghosts?
