What this video covers
FrightProps demonstrates how to make two animatronic talking skulls carry on a back-and-forth conversation by splitting a stereo audio track into its left and right channels and routing each channel independently to a separate skull. The technique relies on audio editing software to compose and pan dialogue, then standard audio cables to deliver each voice to the correct prop. The method is compatible with FrightProps standard, head-turn, and three-axis skull variants. The result is a convincing dual-skull dialogue scene requiring no specialized controllers beyond what the skulls already use.
Key takeaways
- ◆Compose dialogue in audio editing software, panning each character's voice hard left or hard right
- ◆Use audio cable splitters to isolate the left and right channels into two separate mono signals
- ◆Send each isolated channel to its own talking skull so they animate only when their character speaks
- ◆Works with standard, head-turn, and three-axis FrightProps skull models
- ◆FrightProps offers ready-made two-skull kits for those who want a turnkey starting point
Who this is for
Haunters and prop builders who want to create an immersive two-character skull conversation scene without complex programming or additional controllers.

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.
