Bringing Animated Props To Life

With Halloween just around the corner, it's time to start thinking about how you can liven up your space with some truly frightening decorations.

With Halloween just around the corner, it's time to start thinking about how you can liven up your space with some truly frightening decorations. While stationary props like skulls, masks and cauldrons will definitely help to set the scene, if you're truly looking to cause a fright among your guests there is no better option than our extensive range of animated props at Mad About Horror. 

 

Made using only the highest quality materials and inspired by the spookiest figures from popular culture, these lifesize props will help breathe new life into celebrations that revel in death and darkness. Whether you're looking to terrify trick-or-treaters at home, create a spine tingling atmosphere at a party, or you're a business wanting to give your customers the fright of their life, we stock something suitable for everyone. Plus, we ship to the whole of the UK, as well as Europe and the rest of the world' so make sure to place an order now so you don't miss out! 

Here are some of our staff's favourite animated props that are sure to make people jump this year:

Lunging witch

From a young age we've been conditioned to perceive witches as evil, otherworldly, and generally, something to avoid. That's why whether you're catering to a crowd of kids or a room full of adults, our Lunging Witch animated prop is the perfect choice. With lifelike eyes specifically designed to follow your guests around, three activation options and voice control, she's sure to be a major talking point!

10ft Looming Clown

If you were to ask a room full of people what their biggest fear was, chances are at least a few would say clowns' and even the ones that didn't say clowns would be terrified of being greeted by one in the dark! As a popular figure in horror films and the instigator of nightmares as a child, they inspire an irrational fear within us all. As our 10ft Looming Clown animated prop dwarfs you in its shadow, with its oversized hands reaching out to grab you in a menacing way, this fear becomes all the more real. This prop would be ideal for any business who host a Halloween event, or for any homeowner looking to push the boat out.

Lil' Rocking Horse Rosie

Whether you're an adult who loves to dress up in something scary this time of year, or you have kids who are keen to collect all the sugar-filled treats they can, there's nothing more spooky than a haunted doll who is ready to come out and play! Lil' Rocking Horse Rosie is one of the most effortlessly spooky animated props that we stock at Mad About Horror and she'll scare the life out of anyone that crosses her. Her slow rocking motion might give you the impression that there isn't much to be scared of, but with a choice of time or footpad activated screams waiting to be released, she'll make you jump when you least expect it.

Gothic Gravestone

Halloween is all about death and horror, so it's only right that we talk about the ultimate symbol of death: a gravestone. Now, on its own and stationary, a gravestone isn't all that scary – after all, it is just a piece of stone with writing on it. However, when something that is supposed to be all so still and quiet happens to pop up, it'll make you think that the dead have come back to life. Made from foam filled latex and hand painted, this animated prop includes its own downloadable frightening audio track and is the perfect accompaniment for any cemetery scene.

If the animated props that our staff have picked out aren't taking your fancy, then fear not. At Mad About Horror, we pride ourselves on the simply frightening range of animated props we stock on our website. Plus, most of our animated props are listed with a video of how they function, so you can see if each one is the right fit for your space or theme.
