Amen to that, we have one similar and neighborhood came running over the first day I put it up, for 2 years now it has been the biggest hit,......crowds take pics with kids in front, video cams running, without it we would be an avg. stop for sure. Also its great advertisement and attacts attention for a long distance.

Love it!!! Love it Love it Love it!!! Thanks for the post and the info. I am glad you got someone to help you and I am really glad that you gave us this info. I can't wait to buy some of these new characters.

Witch from Canada great photos and house. I really enjoyed looking at your pictures. The hearse was amazing. Looks like you made it, great job. If that was you standing by it, great outfit. Thanks for some really cool ideas, can't wait to show them to my son so we can start planning for this year.

Oh man! I've got to get the Leatherface, Jason, and the witch. The first two are ones I've wanted but couldn't find for less than $240. Now I can get both for a little more than that. I had the witch when it was released, but mine stopped working 20 minutes before my party which pissed me off. I returned it the next day. IMO that's probably the only prop of the 3 that really has to work to really enjoy. Hopefully I'll have more success when I purchase it directly. I wonder what the return policy will be for defects.

Thanks for the heads up on this stuff. Showed it to my wife and got the OK to order the bride, the witch, the doorman and the scarecrows. Now I just need to figure out where to fit them in with the other 7 Gemmy animated figures I have.

I can't wait for them to get here. It will be a nice surprise when they show up over the summer.

The website and video doesnt really show their size, does anyone know how big these are? Anyone know if these are ONLY preprogrammed speech? I'd like to know if these have mike inputs, like Talking Borises(Boris', Borii)

$30 for 4 skulls is a great price, just depends how big they are...

scottish scarer, so are you saying you purchase it and have it sent to me and i send it on to you? you are willing to pay all shipping costs and any other costs? shipping is very expensive! you might want to find out the weight and measurements and if there are customs. what are the items you want? will you do the ordering yourself? that way you get what you ordered and i don't take any blame if the order is wrong. you pay them and they send it to me. if they send the wrong thing are you going to cover costs for shipping to get the right things. can we do some kind of mail confirmation for overseas? that way if one sends it and it gets lost in the mail, one has proof it was sent and not held responsible? can one take out insurance in case it gets lost? these are all must haves. must be able to insure. what if you order something and it doesn't work or they send you the wrong thing? what then? i will help if you meet the above terms. you might want to find out costs and then let me know.

Those look like the talking skulls that Spencer gifts was selling last Halloween. The skulls were the same size as the Boris skulls if I remember correctly. I don't remember them having a microphone input though.
I think someone on this forum or Hauntforum was going to attempt to hack these, but I don't recall if any progress was made.
That is a good price for them!!

I am so thrilled that gemmy is working with amazon.I ordered Jason (over 300 was a little steep for him retail last year)my son who is 15 is so happy I was able to find and buy him.I also ordered the skulls they are always listed on ebay you maybe able to get a answer about dimensions and specs from there.I went back and forth about ordering the witch.But decided not to as I want to do my own I have 3 witches already I just need to convert them to stirring and fogging.I just hope the ebay people don't buy all the supplies to resell them for the crazy amount some of the stuff goes for on there.
