Hiding Prop Gallery Devices
===========================
Add these props to your island to give players a place to hide, and use them to create new Hide-and-Seek games.
On this page
The **Hiding Prop Gallery** gives you several different [props](https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/fortnite/fortnite-creative-glossary#prop) that players can hide in:
* **Port-a-Potty**
* **Haystack**
* **Garbage Dumpster**
* **Scarecrow**
You can use these to create a new kind of [hide-and-seek](https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/fortnite/fortnite-creative-glossary#hide-and-seek) game that is different from a [prop hunt](https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/fortnite/fortnite-creative-glossary#prop-hunt). You can customize the props so that more than one player can hide in one, and determine whether the prop has sound effects and a wobbling animation when it is occupied.
For help on how to find the **Hiding Prop Gallery**, see **[Using Devices](https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/fortnite/using-devices-in-fortnite-creative)**.
If you're using multiple copies of a device on an island, it can be useful to [rename](https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/fortnite/fortnite-creative-glossary#rename-a-device) them. Choosing names that relate to a device's purpose makes it easier to remember what each one does, and easier to find a specific device when using the **[Event Browser](https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/fortnite/event-browser-in-fortnite-creative)**.
