Updated sound effects
- Roar sounds now have rattling chain sounds added
- Start up sound is now a monster sounds (no longer uses AOL "welcome")
- Old sounds are in subfolders in the zip
Total rewrite of main sketch code
Main loop is now implemented as a state machine
All timing now based on event time vs. current time evaluations
- timing is no longer dependent on frames
- allowed removal of delay() in main loop
- eliminates the 'port busy' issue when connecting to Arduino IDE
Relays now using Normally Open rather than Normally Closed connections
Added Motion Detected LED
Added Ready to Wake LED

Arduino based controller for a Monster In A Box Halloween prop.
The idea is pretty simple: create the illusion that some type of container is holding a dangerous monster that is on the verge of escaping. The illusion can be created with any combination of motion, sound, light, smoke and, of course, surprise.
