Wicked Makers' Jaimie and Jay walk through building 'Barty,' a Pirates of the Caribbean-inspired pirate skeleton prop that appears to endlessly drink from a bottle using a hidden recirculating fountain pump. The build centers on a life-sized skeleton dressed in thrift-store pirate gear posed over a barrel, with colored water looping invisibly through vinyl tubing. The hosts also highlight how the same fountain-pump trick can be adapted to other Halloween themes — vampires, zombies, witches — making the core technique highly reusable. Goodwill is a featured sponsor, reinforcing the budget-friendly, thrift-forward approach to costuming the character.
VanOaks Props steps outside his usual cemetery style to build a pirate-themed treasure chest entirely from foam and hot glue.

Note: the creator issued a correction that the plank color used is burnt sienna, not raw sienna as stated in the voiceover.
