What this video covers
The CDG717 Chain Drop Grabber from Poison Props is a pneumatic overhead animatronic in which a chained ghoul character waits upright before dramatically lunging forward over a wall edge, reaching toward patrons below. The complete package includes the character, pneumatics, a pre-programmed controller, motion sensor, and a full audio bundle with speaker and scream effect. The compact rig mounts directly on top of standard maze walls and is designed for plug-and-play installation. Interchangeable character skins allow operators to adapt the prop to different themes.

- ◆Fully self-contained plug-and-play system includes pneumatics, programmed controller, motion sensor, and audio package
- ◆Compact footprint mounts on top of existing maze walls, making integration into current haunt layouts straightforward
- ◆Requires only AC power and a 100 PSI air supply to operate
