It was ok the 1st. day i got it, worked good,then he really started to eat the batteries away in hours a day. which is not good. Plus it did NOT setup the way it should.

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

putting it together was a breeze despite what other reviews said. first one did not work properly Spirit had a new one to me the very next day!!!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

This was one of the more poorly manufactured items we have ordered from Spirit! Pre-assembled items did not line-up as they should have. Requires additional rigging to prevent tipping over. Motor quit working after 3 days of operation (could not lift the head & body). I do admit it was Scary the first day of operation (once we got it all assembled and working correctly) but as time went on, it started malfunctioning and then finally gave out all together...Where do I get a refund?

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

I got mine lat year and when i started putting it together, nothing worked. I tried all I could to get it to work, but it did absolutely nothing. I probably got a bad one though

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

I had to take it to a SPirit store to get it put together and it even took them a long time...EYes don't light up. Not to mention the fact that I was double billed.

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

i bought this product and the pole that raises and lowers the product did not lower the product. waiting on another pole. regardless i would keep this bc it really would scare any kid especially in the dark.

I got one last year (2010) and i am getting ANOTHER one!!!! i love it and hope to have it for a while.

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

The sound is nice and loud so it gives a great effect outdoors. It was fairly easy to put together. Best animated Halloween prop I have ever purchased. Everyone loves it!!!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

Awesome prop ! Scared the cats and hopefully the kids. Definitely worth the investment.

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

Overall great prop, but the plastic posts are very fragile. In simply moving it around, the main plastic post twisted out and one of the flanges broke. This is a new prop for me and I hate it when things break too easily. It still works, but it needs to be handled like a crystal vase to avoid breakage...

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

Highly recommended! This was the centerpiece of my graveyard scene at my halloween party last year and I couldn't stop laughing from all the guests he scared throughout the night. I hid him with only the jack o' lantern peering out. It scared the hell out of all my party guests. The sound activation is wonderfully sensitive - so anyone who gets within 1-2 feet of him gets a good scare and the scary sound and voice is loud enough for all in the room to hear. The only problem is that he takes up a lot of battery juice and any sound pretty much sets him off. I highly recommend getting the plug adapter and the footpad activator that goes with him - otherwise you will have to change his battery at least two or three times during the night.

If you think he is cute in the picture , he is not ! He looks scary , and I love that about him ! The skull looks real and my kids were spooked out . I can't wait for Halloween to scare the kids ! The only reason I gave this product a 4 star is because my husband had taken time to assemble the small pieces . Once he started to work , the slightest sound sets him off ...OOOOHHH!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

I recomend this to anyone wanting to pull of a haunted house, my only concern is that its battery powered. and a little to loud. but it is worth it! :D

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

This prop is awesome! It sets up pretty easily with the directions. The first time I tried it, the dog ran out of the room and the cats scattered. A bit loud for indoors but put a piece of foam over the opening and it works much better. For outdoors, I would definately bring in at night or if it rains. Keeping it out of the weather is my suggestion. But all in all, its a great prop for the price and I can't wait to scare all my party guests and trick or treaters.
Well worth the money and would highly recommend it. Happy Halloween everyone!!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

Works fine, I wish a remote was included. A bit pricy for what you get, but if your into this stuff, most of it is overpriced. On the good side, it looks great and is fun for any Halloween lover!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

I love this grim reaper with pumpkin. It was more than I ever expected. With the lights out, he is one creepy guy. The voice is a bit loud for indoors but if you put a piece of foam over the box, it is fine. Outdoors, it will be perfect.
You really can't go wrong for the price. I'm sure I will scare some unsuspecting trick or treaters this year. My dog sure did exit the room the first time he heard it and 2 of my cats had BIG eyes. I would certainly tell people to buy it. I will also not hesitate to buy other creatures from here too. Happy Halloween everyone!!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

I used this product in my haunted house for my Halloween party and the voice and surprise factor were great! It was truly scary and creepy! I used it on the ground at the bottom of my porch to "greet guests" and it was a big hit. Only downsides were it was a little flimsy and the I kept thinking that the wind would blow it down even with the stakes at the bottom. The directions to put it together looked very easy but it took me a while to get it all hooked up. Overall a great, spooky animated prop. Great value!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

Hit of the night......mixed it in with several other pumpkins... was a hit!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

This is the best product EVER!!! Buy it on sale...
It is loud & his eyes pumpkin light up!!! Its AWESOME!!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

I have a large graveyard. I put him by one of the entryways. He lights up good at night and you can hear him. Just make sure you have him mounted steady because of how he rises. I put him on a crate and shrouded it so he stands taller. I also modified the pumpkin and put a line off of my fog chiller to the bottom so there is fog coming out of the pumpkin. Good Prop!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

I bought this a month ago & it fits very nicely in my haunted Graveyard outdoors & I couldn't believe how inexpensive this big sucker was, & how well it works! Very easy to put together also. Great range in its motion. I love it!!!!!!!!!!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

This is a great prop! I can't wait to use him this Halloween because I know he will scare everyone! He's a little wobbley so I suggest you use a weight to hold him down. I like that he is loud so you can hear him clearly. Go buy one! He's awesome!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

I think that this prop is one of the BEST props that i've bought so far!!!

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

Totally cool prop and very inexpensive. Easy assembly and good instructions. It'll be a cool addition to my yard this Halloween. Highly recommended but they sell out fast.

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

I took the pumpkin OFF. I wrapped coat hanger wire around what was already there to extend his arm's length and shape into looking like he was going to grab you when you walked by... i threw a big black light weight fabric on over his head and it drapped and puddled onto the ground to cover all of him. I tapped his base with base legs down onto the 4 foot tall-ish cardboard box that i got with my order and weighed it down with a few bricks inside. As he rises up he tends to REALLY lean in towards you standing infront of him, so it SERIOUSLY looks like he's going to grab you. You can still see his eyes thru the cloth i threw on over him. TIP: IF he's too loud for you (or ANY of these things) you can glue or use fabric to cover the sound speaker identified as slits/slots where the sound comes out of. That works well to quiet it down. [*], I hid this guy on my pathway out front in the shadows and if kids were too loud it would go off - -, Only 1 girl screamed but that night this rising reaper had a WHOLE BUNCH of OMG!!!'s being thrown at it. TOTALLY fun =] WORTH IT!!!! I also bought the bubble fogger..every1 luved that! =]

Very nice prop. Easy assembly. This would be well placed right by the front door to give the trick or treaters a startle. It rises up to a good height- nice and tall. A unique prop and a worthy addition.

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:

This prop is very nice.. it took no time to assemble and did it's job very well... I used it outside my office door and in doing so found out how durable it was. I guess it scared the cleaning crew half to death because when I arrived at work the next morning it had suffered a terrible beat down... but, I reassembled him he was good to go!! :-)

Comments about Animated Rising Reaper With Pumpkin:
