Do not adjust your computer because Bill Ruppert has put together a nice set of sound effects using only EHX pedals and some creativity. I love how he makes a clock sound with just the pick-up switch and then adds in some bells for spooky effect.

You can see all of Bill’s gear here but I doubt we’ll be able to recreate his sweet tones without years of practice and fifty full listens to the Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House, an album that I used to own.
