We made a real FOXY Animatronic! (FNAF)
Wicked Makers' Jay and Jaimie transform a retail pirate animatronic into a life-size Withered Foxy from Five Nights at Freddy's for their 2024 yard haunt. The build combines a fully fabricated foam endoskeleton with 3D-printed and fabric-covered outer pieces, while the original animatronic's servo-driven face mechanics are completely disassembled and remounted to match Foxy's proportions. Inspired by behind-the-scenes photos from the FNAF 2 film production, the creators aim for screen-accurate character detail at a DIY level. Foxy joins a growing roster of scratch-built FNAF animatronics on the channel.

Making a Giant Spider! 🕷 DIY Halloween Props
Wicked Makers' Jay and Jaimie build 'Gertie,' a giant Halloween spider prop using chicken wire as a structural armature, pipe insulation for the legs, and expanding spray foam for the body texture. The build is designed to be approachable for beginners, relying on materials readily available at hardware stores. Painting and decorative detailing bring the oversized arachnid to life as a dramatic yard haunt centerpiece. The creators note that the chicken-wire-plus-foam technique is highly adaptable for many other DIY Halloween props.

Endless Drinking Skeleton 💀 DIY Halloween Props
Wicked Makers' Jaimie and Jay walk through building 'Barty,' a Pirates of the Caribbean-inspired pirate skeleton prop that appears to endlessly drink from a bottle using a hidden recirculating fountain pump. The build centers on a life-sized skeleton dressed in thrift-store pirate gear posed over a barrel, with colored water looping invisibly through vinyl tubing. The hosts also highlight how the same fountain-pump trick can be adapted to other Halloween themes — vampires, zombies, witches — making the core technique highly reusable. Goodwill is a featured sponsor, reinforcing the budget-friendly, thrift-forward approach to costuming the character.
