What this video covers

Distortions Unlimited hosts a Make-A-Wish recipient named Jackson, whose wish was to design a Halloween prop at their shop. The team brought his concept to life by sculpting, molding, and pouring it in latex, then let him pick the paint color and activate the finished animatronic, which moves, shakes, and spits. Jackson named his creation "Crimson" and will feature it in his own yard haunt. The video blends a heartfelt charity story with a behind-the-scenes look at professional prop production.

Key takeaways

  • A Make-A-Wish recipient collaborated with Distortions Unlimited to design a custom Halloween monster
  • The prop was sculpted, molded, and cast in latex before the visit, then painted and finished on-site
  • The finished animatronic moves, shakes, and spits, and was named "Crimson"
  • Crimson will debut in the recipient's own yard haunt and may inspire a future Distortions release
  • The video highlights Make-A-Wish and the young haunter's charitable efforts

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.
