Raspberry Pi Stranger Things Phone Prop Designed for Season 4 Premiere #piday #raspberrypi @Raspberry_Pi
Season 4 is almost here so get dialed into some vintage calls. Guy Dupont created this project for a Stranger Things experience, shared by Tom’s Hardware:
Dupont explains the vintage phone was planned to be positioned in a booth resembling a 1980s pizza shop. What looks like an unassuming prop would occasionally ring. When guests pick up the phone, they would hear random sound bites from the show, scary sound effects and even random pizza orders. Lifting the phone off the hook returns a dial tone sound, the buttons work with an audible sound for each keypress and the speaker will returns a disconnected sound once a number has been dialed.

Funny, I just built a similar thing for Tim McGraw’s concert tour. People pick up a phone, hear a message from Tim, and they can leave their own message. I built this using a Raspberry Pi, as well.
