How to Set Up a Prize Corner with the Marionette
Building the Prize Counter Room
To build an authentic prize corner for your horror pizzeria, section off a dedicated room or alcove connected to the main dining area.
1. Enclose the area with wall blocks, keeping windows minimal to limit incoming light.
2. Place tables inside the room to act as prize display counters and gift stations.
3. Decorate the walls and surfaces with posters and small pizzeria props to make the room look active yet unsettling.
Installing the Marionette Display
The centerpiece of any prize area is the Marionette (Puppet):
1. Place the gift box prop on the floor or atop a counter in the darkest corner of the room.
2. Position the Marionette statue so it is emerging directly out of the gift box.
3. Keep the lighting in this corner dim, relying only on minimal ambient light so the figure remains partly concealed in shadow until approached.
