Harriet is always hanging around waiting for her next victim . . . I mean mark. She learned all her skills for clowning and conning from her dear old dad Henry but when mom split with the ringmaster, times got tough, and her talent as a knife thrower took on a whole new side hustle. Now she lifts wallets while dad has you distracted. Just don't accuse either of cheating, or you will end up dealing the next hand six feet under.

It'd be best to watch your back this Halloween and double check those pockets once you put this Harriet Hustle animatronic on display. Watch as she swings back and forth and swivels her head around looking for her next victim.

Ophelia never once made a sound. When she was born, the room was dead quiet even when they cut the cord. As she grew, she never had a first word, and then bad things started happening around the house. Her sister's toys went missing, lamps mysteriously were broken, and then the neighbor's cat went missing. It's not her fault, though, because she was born possessed by one of Hell's minions who stole her voice and is till she is strong enough to lead her own army of demons!

With her light-up blue eyes and taunting phrases, Ophelia is sure to give you nightmares once you put her on display in your home this Halloween. The menacing demon behind her sways back and forth as her eyes move in fear waiting for the demon to strike!

Late one night, under the full moon, the wolf king descended from its mountain den and left Burt with a single bite. He considered himself lucky only until the next full moon, when the change began. Now every month, Burt transforms into a ravenous werewolf and is hunted like an animal as he tries to survive until morning.

You work from sun up to sundown, tending the fields, babying your crops and livestock to eke out a living. Then one morning, you wake up to find dead birds strewn across your fields, and all your wheat crop smashed and bent over, and you swear to yourself that your scarecrow is smiling now. The other farmers tell you stories about missing chickens and uprooted vegetable crops. You chuckle and think it's a good thing that he's stuck to that wooden stake, but just in case, you start sleeping with your favorite machete next to the bed.

The Night Stalker animatronic has light-up LED eyes and moves its head from side-to-side while making creepy laughing sounds.
