Motorized Overhead Animator | Mechanical DIY HALLOWEEN Prop HOW-TO Tutorial

This tutorial walks builders through constructing a motorized overhead animator — a mechanical rig inspired by the Flying Crank Ghost mechanism but designed to be far more versatile. Powered by a repurposed electric BBQ rotisserie motor, the device is mounted overhead and uses fishing line to simultaneously animate multiple props from a single drive. The result can make candles appear to float, phantoms levitate, skeletons move, and portraits shift — all from one compact, ceiling-mounted unit.
