What this video covers

This step-by-step tutorial walks viewers through building a motorized, animatronic Halloween prop featuring moving faceless teeth. A small AC motor drives the animation, and the creator references a specific FrightProps motor as the power source. The finished prop is versatile enough to serve as a table centerpiece, haunted house display piece, or witches'-den accent. The channel aims to help DIY crafters and home haunters achieve professional-looking results on a homemade budget.

Key takeaways

  • A low-RPM AC motor (sourced from FrightProps) powers the teeth animation
  • Suitable for multiple display contexts: tabletop, haunted house, or themed party decor
  • Part of a broader series of motorized and animated Halloween prop tutorials
  • Designed to be accessible to DIY crafters who want professional-looking results
  • Faceless moving teeth create an unsettling, eye-catching visual effect

Who this is for

Home haunters and DIY prop builders looking to add an affordable, motorized animated prop to their Halloween display or haunted house scene.

Making a real Puppet Animatronic! #fnaf

Wicked Makers' Jaimie and Jay build a life-size animatronic version of The Puppet (Marionette) from Five Nights at Freddy's 2. The prop combines a foam-sculpted body wrapped in black velvet with a 3D-printed, painted mask sourced from a third-party sculptor. Two pneumatic systems power the scare: a scissor mechanism that launches the figure forward roughly three feet, and a chest-mounted pneumatic that thrusts its arms outward for the signature jumpscare effect.
