DV1323 DROPPING VAMPIRE PoisonProps.com

The Poison Props DV1323 is a plug-and-play pneumatic vampire animatronic designed for haunted attractions and dark rides. The character conceals itself at ten feet overhead, then drops at a 45-degree angle to bring its face within close range of patrons while its arms spread and head turns side to side. The complete package includes the character, pneumatics, a pre-programmed controller, motion sensor, digital audio player, powered speaker, and a scream effect. A compact footprint and roughly 15-minute setup make it practical for tight maze corridors.
