Rolling 12 months

Every holiday. Same gear.

A projector is not a Halloween purchase. It is a year-round one. Below is every holiday this system covers across the next twelve months — what the projection is for each, and what it takes to build.

Next 12 months

20 holidays, soonest first. Each one has its own page describing the build, whether or not the videos are published yet.

Why this works all year

The hardware does not change

A projector, a screen surface and a light source cover every holiday on this list. You are buying the gear once and changing the content, which is a file.

Content is the cheap part

Every loop on this site came from a written prompt. Swapping a theme costs nothing but the time to write six sentences, which is why a new holiday does not mean new equipment.

Seasonal windows are short

Most holiday shopping happens in the two to three weeks before the date. The pages are in place ahead of that window so they are indexed and ready when demand arrives.
