What this video covers
The CSB501 Chainsaw Butcher is a commercial-grade pneumatic animatronic from Poison Props designed for haunted houses, dark rides, and amusement park attractions. The figure hides behind a curtain until triggered, then the curtains fly open as the Butcher lunges forward roughly five feet while raising and lowering a chainsaw. The unit ships as a plug-and-play system, bundling the character, pneumatic rig, programmed controller, motion sensor, digital audio player, powered speaker, and a scream sound effect. Characters are interchangeable across Poison Props mechanisms, adding flexibility for themed customization.
Key takeaways
- ◆Curtain-reveal lunge effect sends the Butcher surging approximately five feet toward guests while operating the chainsaw
- ◆Fully integrated plug-and-play package includes pneumatics, controller, motion sensor, and a complete audio system
- ◆Requires a dedicated 100 PSI air supply and AC power for operation
- ◆Footprint is roughly 52″ deep × 32″ wide × 80″ tall — plan venue space accordingly
- ◆Characters can be swapped onto other Poison Props mechanisms for versatile theming

Professional haunt operators, dark ride designers, and amusement park vendors seeking a turnkey high-impact chainsaw scare prop ready for commercial deployment.
