Learn how to make a DIY Halloween Mummy! This was a really fun and easy DIY Halloween project that is perfect for upping your Halloween game this year! We start by making a duct tape form and then filling it with upcycled newspaper.
This project uses normal materials that you probably already have around the house and only takes about a few hours to make. No complicated tools are necessary and it's a great project to do with the kids!
We go all out for Halloween every year and do a huge haunt at our house. This DIY Mummy is going to be a great new addition to our setup.
Did you enjoy the video? We'd love to hear your feedback in the comments!!

It's that time of year again! We're getting our DIY Halloween season started with this awesome life-sized Mummy project!! We literally wrap Jay's entire body in duct tape and it's not weird at all. Not...one...bit.
Do you have an estimate of approximately how much cheesecloth you ended up using? Very cool, btw.
TIA
We used around 36-38 yards (ish) and cut it down into thinner strips. We also stretched it out good and thin and did multiple layers so you’re mileage may vary a bit. 😃
@@WickedMakers Awesome! Really looking forward to making a few of these. Should really set off my entire scene. Thanks tons for posting!
Could have put red led’s were the eyes are to glo red 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Awesome mummy 😀😀😀
Paramedic Scissors, for the win. Allows you to safely cut off bandages, and what have you, next to the skin. Just sayin'. Also, could cut slit in where the eyes should be and drop in two red LED mini lights. Gauze over them and they're ready to go.
Those are bandage scissors actually.
Great prop! Doing 1 maybe 2 this year. Tip: White duct tape instead of silver. About the same cost as spray paint but saves a step.
Nice!!
That's a great idea!
This kind of duck tape is really sticky and it’s actually for ductwork and it’s a little bit more fibrous and then there’s the cheap duck 🦆 tape. I’m not sure if I do white I think it might be too cheap not be as resilient over time. Did you end up making it with white? 👻
@jodyhakala247 I did but I ended up using a nude colored duck tape and it held up really well. I only use the duck tape brand, I get it from Walmart for about $4. The 3m "duck tape" is terrible and Lowes has the audacity to charge over $5. Happy spook season to you and yours.

It would totally freak me seeing this mummy sitting in my basement storage when it wasn't Halloween 🙈
Right?! Still freaks us out whenever we forget it’s there.
“We turn off the AC while filming” EXCUSE ME WHAT?! As someone from AZ this sounds like a heatstroke waiting to happen lol, thank you guys for doing what you do! This project looks so awesome and when all things are considered, looks pretty damn easy too. That’s what I love about your guys’ channel, everything you make is within the range of the home DIY connoisseur. Happy early Halloween 🎃
6:40 "Touch him."
"Ok, there."
"Touch his hand."
"There. Touched it, ok? I'm done."
😄
Hahah yep
Decided to do the whole thing in one go and didnt cut sections to save time. RIP Grandma. She will make a lovely conversation piece each year. Mum was not too happy about that.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Major cool. I think I might do one with his eyes set to a motion sensor.
Was totally thinking this near the door and speaker to go off when people walked by
This would be a good basis for giant spider victims. If I were to do that, I would make several of them in various shades of light grey, and the arms wrapped in different poses close to the neck and head, and the knees slightly bent for a realistic variety. For a really realistic effect, there’s webbing made with web guns that work like a glue gun that when layered over the mummy would make it look more like webbing.
This is a great project and my son and I had lots of fun and laughs making it. Thank you. I love your projects. One thing i think you should specify is that the cheesecloth should be in one continuous sheet. The one I ordered from Amazon (I picked the one that was Prime) is multiple sheets of it. I think it will still work but the continuous material would have been easier. I suggest that you also specify that the bottom of the feet are plastic wrapped and taped when the mold is being stuffed and taped close. My son and I disagreed about that and we ended up enclosing them but it would have been a lot easier not to. Thanks again!!
Love that you made one! So cool!! 😄 Great tip about the cheesecloth and feet as well.
They showed you on the film about the feet. I didn't get what you where trying to say. They taped and stuffed feet???
@@rhondawheaton8303 i didn't understand it either. Idk what the tip is, since they showed the feet part
As Jaimie approaches his face with the wrap, Jay wonders about clause 173(c) in the life insurance contract...
You can also use coffee with creamer in it to soak the cheesecloth. It smells like it's very old when it dries, and you can also use cotton linen as well.
That turned out great!!! Might wrap one of my kids this weekend! Awesome tutorial!
Hi folks just wanted to say thanks for putting this up. The family and I made our own Mummy following your instructions and it came out awesome.
I love rewatching these Halloween videos.
Hahhah It's so realistic that the baby got scared. You do the best DIY projects ever!!! Thank you!!!
You work so well together on such fun projects. Makes me wish I had friends like you.
If it was late at night and i saw that i would have a heart attack
to get a fake mummified flesh look on the fingers you could use paper towls or toilet paper, brown paint and some glue. kinda paint it on and let it dry. itll get a shriveled up flesh texture and look.
Oh heck yeah!! Awesome idea. We’re thinking of making another in more of an action pose so we’ll definitely try this. 🤘🏼🎃
if you use latex paint you can skip any glue.
Awesome, easy build. I really appreciate you putting it out soon enough that it could be done for this Halloween!
Thanks for checking it out! Yeah, this one takes a little longer than you might expect but you can still get it done in a weekend.
That turned out wicked awesome! Happy Halloween!!
Thanks man! 👊🏼😄 You too!
I don’t know why I’m watching this... it’s very interesting and cool nice job
Very life like well done exactly like the mummy in other great horror flicks
I love Halloween but seeing you guys have fun together makes these videos awesome. Reminds me of me and my husband during Halloween as well.
did this with my daughter. Am now being sued for child endangerment and abuse.
Are you serious
😂😂😂😂😂
thanks so much for the great instructional video. i'm not into halloween but need to make a mummy for our local museum and you've saved the day. impressive!!!
Awesome idea! Another material you could use to fill the mummy is leaves.
I have used plastic grocery bags to stuff forms, too. You can really get them pushed in there to gives good rigidity.
Nice, good call!
Y'all do some amazing work! Is this just a hobby for you two or are y'all professional effects builders? I love the creativity and the ease you two give off on these projects and I'm glad I found your channel. I love doing special effects for Halloween it's my favorite holiday
Y'all have given me alot of great ideas for my own Halloween haunts, thanks!
Thank you!! 👋😄 We’re not professional effects builders though we both have past professional experience. We love showing how fun and easy it can be to make some of this stuff. Thanks for watching. 😁
Again great idea 😁 our Halloween party in the UK is getting bigger and bigger each year so these props will certaintly help with sproosing the place up 🤣 again.. Thanks guys.
Nice! Glad to hear that. 🤘🏼🎃
I literally have no storage in my apartment, I wonder if my roommates will mind if I keep a life-sized mummy in the hall closet...
You don't need to wrap the head like this. Use a foam head. It is much safer and easier and it can also be reused for packing tape ghosts or other projects.
As long as the proportions are correct, that’s a great solution.
This is awesome. I made a miniature version of these once with left over casting material from an Orthopedic clinic. But didn't look as amazing as this!
Thanks! 😄😄
Folks could also use the "creepy cloth" material, which comes in an off-white color. Bonus with that is it has random holes in it, so it's tattered and old-looking. Plus you can buy it at Dollar Tree; you can buy a case online for $36. One cloth is 72" x 30", so you'd have quite a lot to work with!
Yep, great tips. Thanks! 😄
Thanks for the tips! And I remember (well, not me) wrapping up as active duty military around the weight standard test to lose water weight, lol
I LOVE this project! So glad I found this channel!
Thanks!! 😀
just remember to store in a non critter Area. our cousin left his bullwinkle moose head mask (made out of chicken wire and cardboard and 3 roll of masking tape) in his garage after halloween. a bird move in and build nest in the nose. with all that paper mouse city could pop up with 20-30 residents.
Furry here, and furries make a lot of Duct Tape Dummies (DTD) for fursuit makers to use as a body reference. You can probably search up some furry tutorial videos for DTD tips and tricks, but here's a few quick ones from me:
1: Have at least two volunteers, ideally three or four, helping. It greatly speeds things up so the person isn't as uncomfortable for as long. One person just cutting strips of tape for the other two to work with helps a lot.
2: Have a jug of cold water for the suiter to drink from, have the aircon on, ideally a portable fan too. You can get into trouble with overheating really fast doing this, so you need to slow that process as you go.
3: Start from the legs upwards to minimise time spent overheating.
4: Have multiple pairs of scissors on hand, not just one. If they need to cut you out in a hurry you want multiple people working on it.
5: Have something for the suiter to rest their arms on (which are usually spread outward, not tucked into the chest like this) Because they'll get tired very fast when you have to hold them up. A volunteer can be an armrest, even. Or the suiter can stand near a bookshelf and grip that. I've rested my arms on laundry drying racks before.
6: Putting markings along the cutting lines is good so you can match them up later, but including a few numbers on both sides of the cut also helps for even less ambiguity about what goes where.
I'm going to make one today
Nice!
This is such a awesome prop for Halloween.. I’m more of a make it yourself than store bought. I’ve done many but this one is really cool! Thanks 😊
😄😄😄😄
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!❤️
"COIN, COIN, COIN" 👍👍👍
🤣 Yes!!!
Very cool mummy idea, I never would of thought to use duct tape. Very creative.
Made this last year based on yours. Turned out awesome!
Best Halloween UA-cam channel ever!!!!
I made a foam coffin for mine and painted it too look real.
OMG, this is a riot!!!!!
Bravo !
Très beau travail, je vais peut-être me laisser tenter cette année pour réaliser cette momie.
Merci du partage.
How many rolls of duct tape and plastic wrap and cheese cloth do you think you used? Im 5'9 and this is SUCH a GREAT idea
Hmm, we think it was two rolls of duct tape and one pack of plastic wrap.
Great mummy
Should wrap Jaimie next so Mummy has a Wifey
Looks awesome! I could not imaging being wrapped up in that! Also, have you through about investing in a pair of bandage scissors for future projects like this? You can get them fairly inexpensive, and it has a neat little nub on the pointy bits for less chance of getting cut!
Are you crazy.... If they wanted to play it safe, they would have used a store bought $3 manekin head. Clearly this couple loves to take risks. It came out great.... No... amazing... Thanks for posting.
Thank you 😊 for sharing
Halloween at y’alls House i bet is too cool 🎃
How many bundles of that cheese cloth did you order from amazon???
IM SO EXCITED FOR HALLOWEEN AND THANKS FOR THIS NOW ME AND MY DAD CAN HAVE BONDING TIME :)
Nice! Glad to hear it. 👋😄
Love these guys 👻
😄😄😄
What a fantastic idea looks great
Great job . Maybe throw a little stain in the mix. Darker color for the wrapping would have been my choice. Roll him some dirt really set the effect
Thanks, and good tips! :)
That's really cool. you could also put glowing red eyes and a skull inside with the teeth showing. also I kind of hope that you would make a mermaid tail someday with the same method.
All fun and games until that mummy comes to life and starts coming at you.
Nicely done & looks great❣️👍
Cool Mummy.
❤❤❤ Thank you vers much for the tutorial, I Will make it for this halloween 😊😊😊❤❤❤
Very cool. But you should have wrapped the fingers too.
I love all your videos and ideas.
It’s 2 months till Halloween maybe I get excited to early
Lol hey, I’m right there with ya! 😆
Soo good to see a new video from y’all!
We're back! :)
I really want to make this it’s awesome
Similar to the mummy.. Have you done any ghosts using seran wrap and clear packing tape?
That is a trust exercise for sure!
Really cool
ok it's official, im throwing a halloween birthday party next month. i already sent out the "save the dates" 😇
I wish my husband would help me do this but there's no chance of that happening lol. As soon as I talk someone into letting me "WRAP" them up! I'll be making this. Halloween is my favorite holiday to decorate & I've fallen in love with y'alls channel. Thank you for ALL your ideas❤
😄😄😄😄
Me and my kids will definitely b trying this one
It’s super fun!!! 😄
Awesome mummy
Great idea
Did something like this in 3D art class in High School. Me and a few other girls made Slender Man. It was awesome. :3
Love it! I'd paint the skeleton hands to look aged and ancient, like a yellowed, dusty color. Would look awesome if you had a sarcophagus for it to rest in! Maybe if it opened when someone approached... then raised it's arms out and moaned!
0.12 I have horror flashbacks by doing this method for an attempt at making World of Warcraft cosplay armor. My sister took a chunk of skin out of my forearm with the scissors.
Eeeek that sounds rough!!!
Very impressive!!
oh my!!! I love this.
😀😀😀
Little claustrophobic. Or S&M there for a minute lol
soo cool that's amazing
Guys, this is brilliant! New subscriber😄Keep em coming, especially easy ideas
So cool!
That is so awesome and quite easy to make. 👍🎃
Great idea! Turned out really good 👍
Nice, but might have wanted to wrap the legs individually. Together is probably more true to life but separate gives the impression that the mummy may awaken and chase you throughout the tomb.
You could use a painters suit as well. Instead of the crean wrap.
Everybody wants to be mummys but nobody wants to teach me how to be a daddy
Cool idea thanks for the video !!👍👍💯💯🎃🎃
I’d be tempted to make two of them but only do from the waist up in the second one. Then I’d put that one in my passenger seat and drive around town. LOL.
Hahah!
It looks pretty good, but I would suggest that anyone wanting to make this dirty the wraping after it's wrapped. Because it looks like whoever wrapped this poor dead guy used (pre owned) strips from a tomb robbery. Love the videos!
Yep, good call there!
What a fantastic project. That came out amazing. I will definitely try to figure out how to do it as a solo project as I don't have anyone to help me. Possibly by using a mannequin that I already have but is not weatherproof.
Can’t wait to see what else you guys make this year!!!❤
I thought it was just a plastic 5foot skeleton from the Halloween store that was wrapped up! Way more creative!
👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼😄
Truly awesome
😄 🙌🙌🙌 😄
Awesome great idea
Shhhhh, scary. That's completely Awsome you guys. Thanks for sharing.
👋😄 Thanks!!
