BUCKY, THE WONDER SKELETON
The sight of a skeleton hanging from your favorite tree or from a beam on Halloween (or if you're like us all year long) is a very creepy sight indeed. But, tying an authentic Hangman's noose is one of those elusive techniques that seems to be forgotten shortly after learning how it's done. After all, how often do most people tie a Hangman's noose?

The instructions for tying the Hangman's Knot are pictured on the right. The hangman's noose requires a lot more rope than you might think.

We prefer to use 1/2" or 5/8" rope, that is at least 16 feet long. This will give you a noose rope about six feet long. Thick, hemp type rope can usually be bought at your local hardware store by the foot.

Danger: This noose is the real thing! Never put this noose over a living persons head and never play hangman. Do not leave where children can access it. Don't take any risk that could result in a deadly accident. If you are not a responsible adult, do not make or use a hangman's noose! If you're not sure if you are a responsible adult, do not make or use a hangman's noose! We except no responsibility for the irresponsible use or misuse of this prop by irresponsible persons.
