What this video covers

This short FrightProps video demonstrates how to create realistic spider web effects using a webcaster gun powered by either an air compressor or a shop vac. The hot-glue-based approach produces convincingly organic webs and is presented as a cleaner, easier alternative to rubber-cement drill methods. The demonstration is quick and accessible, making it ideal for haunters of any experience level.

Key takeaways

  • Webcaster guns use hot glue and pressurized air to produce realistic-looking spider webs
  • Two power source options are available: air compressor or shop vac
  • Cleaner and easier to use than rubber-cement spinning drill webbers
  • Suitable for haunted houses, home haunts, or yard haunt décor
  • Very short learning curve — results are achievable almost immediately

Real YARNABY Animatronic! 🧶😱 #poppyplaytime

Wicked Makers' Jay and Jaimie construct a full animatronic version of Yarnaby from the horror game Poppy Playtime, built from steel and driven by pneumatics. The build goes beyond aesthetics — the team stress-tests the animatronic's jaw mechanism using a ballistic gel arm to see whether it could realistically bite through a limb. The video blends behind-the-scenes fabrication footage with chaotic prop-testing in classic Wicked Makers style. It sits alongside their broader catalog of mascot-horror animatronics inspired by FNAF, Poppy Playtime, and similar franchises.
