ZBD1023 Zombie Body Drop PoisonProps.com

Setup requires only an AC power connection and a 100 PSI air supply, making integration into existing haunt infrastructure straightforward. Characters are interchangeable across Poison Props mechanisms, offering flexibility for different haunt themes.

The Pumpkin King Reacher (PKR1008) from Poison Props is a towering 8-foot pneumatic animatronic with an 8-foot wingspan designed for professional haunted attractions, corn mazes, and dark rides. It delivers an aggressive multi-axis scare sequence — lunging forward, swaying side to side, and raising its arms and head — all driven by an included programmed controller and motion sensor. The plug-and-play package bundles the character, pneumatics, controller, and an audio system with a digital player, powered speaker, and scream effect. AC power and a 100 PSI air supply are the only on-site requirements.

An optional sound package with a digital player and powered speaker is also available.
