What this video covers

StiltbeastStudios walks through the construction of a faux stone pedestal base — a versatile graveyard accent piece designed to elevate urns, statues, and other haunt décor. The build centers on foam fabrication and stone-texture finishing techniques. The resulting prop is lightweight, inexpensive, and adaptable to a wide range of Halloween display scenarios.

Key takeaways

  • Foam is the primary structural and sculpting material for achieving a convincing stone look
  • The pedestal is intentionally versatile — usable under urns, statues, potted plants, and more
  • Faux stone finishing techniques make the prop blend naturally into graveyard-themed displays
  • Pink foam roll sourced from a home improvement store keeps material costs low

Who this is for

Home haunters and haunted attraction builders looking for an easy, budget-friendly way to add gothic stone accent pieces to a graveyard or cemetery scene.

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.
