INSTACAST MOLD SERIES

The Aztech Death Whistle is included in the Clue Ghostbusters: Afterlife Edition and as an accessory for Podcast's Plasma Series action figure.In 1999, a 20-year-old sacrificial victim was discovered by archaeologists, clutching a death whistle in his hands inside a temple in Tlatelolco dedicated to the wind god Ehecatl. Its purpose is still in debate, ranging from intimidation tactic during war to ceremonial object for human sacrifice. The Aztec Death Whistle is based on a real life artifact.Savage used a special orange case made for the props and hand delivered them to Jason Reitman at the exterior Farmhouse set in Canada during principal photography. A pounce bag consisting of jersey t-shirt material filled with Fuller's earth was used to dirty up the props. For the look of rotted stone, they created they weathered look from using brown shoe polish, a black and burnt umber wash for browns, and a little bit of oil paint then some acrylic washes. They used a simple spray nozzle and blow drier as they lightly dusted coats on the base tan color and applying washes. They used a Dremel tool to round out the rough edges. Savage used Forstner bits to drill out two holes in the whistle end, one in each eye, and one under the jaw of each prop. He secretly signed them 'A A' for 'Adam and Allie.' The poured urethane plastic into the mold and used a type of resin called instacast. Three props are the hero version, two are for background shots, and two are for stunts. Production called for the Death Whistle props to look like 'rotted stone.' In 2019, over a couple of days, Adam Savage worked on seven Death Whistle props with Mythbusters Junior co-host Allie Weber.

François Audouy sent Savage a design for the Death Whistle then he sculpted it in Sculpey polymer clay. Savage suggested the Aztec Death Whistle and it was approved. Phoebe wrangled him with her Particle Thrower but Podcast failed to trap him in time and he fled the Foundry.Įarly into writing the script, Jason Reitman reached out to Adam Savage, whom he is friends with, and asked for help in making one of the props for Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Instead, he retailated and spit metal projectiles at them.

He claimed to have a plan and used the whistle. After they got close enough and hid behind a pipe, Podcast got the Aztec Death Whistle. The next day, Phoebe and Podcast found Muncher in the Summerville Foundry. Callie gave her permission as long as he didn't use it again in the house. Podcast informed her it was an Aztec Death Whistle then asked if he could keep it. Podcast stopped and Callie what the hell that was. Callie walked into the room to see what the noise was. Before he could tell them about the horrifying sound it made, Podcast blew into it and generated the aformentioned horrifying sound. Gary Grooberson instantly recognized it and noted it was designed to ward off evil spirits. Podcast discovered Egon's Aztec Death Whistle during his first visit to the Farmhouse.
