it is over all one of the best props of my haunted garage that I make every year because it attracts people. I gave it 4 stars because the face doesn't look the same as on the video/package. Over all its really cool and I think everyone should try it out!

Tombstone a little flimsy. Used outside with no problems. Kids and I loved it. Had an issue with my coupon at check out but Spirit Halloween took care of it. I am a very statisfied customer.

I like the look of this guy and his mouth moves to his words to look pretty realistic. However, the wiring that makes the lift work had some issues. I was able to take it apart and fix it but, I question how many Halloweens he'll be around. The other part I don't care for, is the gravestone, it's made out of two foam pieces and the picks that are supposed to keep the two pieces together do a horrible job. I was able to glue it together so it wouldn't keep separating but, it's disappointing that I had to do so much work on it for something I just purchased 10 minutes before. If you're looking for something to really make your cemetery pop, he'll do a great job, but he is not wired for outdoor use so it's something you would bring out the day of. Lastly the box didn't state otherwise at the store but, the AC adapter is not included for this guy.

I loved it when I first saw it in action...
(1st time back to the store) The problem was, when I got home the mouth did not work and it did not go up or down...
(2nd time back to the store) The moth still did not work (ok, so what you could hear it) would go up but not down.
(3rd time back to the store) OK I want something else now... they offered me the diplay but I said naw...

I was looking for something to give my graveyard entrance a little kick. And this little piece delivered. My visitors were scared and excited when he rose from behind the tombstone like the great pumpkin. I dressed up the surroundings for him and POW!! Great reaction from the guest.

*THE PICTURE ON THE BOX IS VERY MISLEADING*

The tombstone was poorly painted, as was the face of the Keeper. Though his face was nicley carved, the whole outfit he has on is nothing like on the box. It's a black, stiff, woven vinyl fabric robe, with a hood that has a long, thin, metal plate sewn into the front of it so it will hold its shape around the face. This robe is then covered in a loose-weave, grey nylon fabric that looks like gauze, with numorous large holes all through it. And as for the one I puchased, the nylon wasn't even properly attached to the hood (It had slid off and made a lovely frill around his neck). I hot glued the fabric back onto the hood, and proceeded to produce a convincing shape for the front of the hood with the metal strip that was thoughtfully sewn into it.

My next endevour lead me to examine his "hands". His left hand is nothing more than a poorly shaped, poorly painted, thin plastic shell hotglued to the tombsone, with a patch of velcro at the wrist area where you attatch the sleeve to form his arm. This velcro patch had to be hot glued in place because the weight if the sleeve pulled it off...

His other hand was okay, as long as you ignored the fact that it was ALSO poorly shaped, poorly painted, and had a half-inch hole drilled through it for the lantern handle.

And the lantern, in my opinion, is too small to be taken seriously. How much oil would it hold if it were to function as a real lantern? 10 minutes worth at best? And why does it taper at the top?
(I honestly think it looks like it belongs in a scale-model harbor somewhere as a miniature bell bouy)

All in all, the mechanics work great and the blue lights on the back af the tombstone that shine on his face are a nice touch. I rate it a three out of five for a wardrobe upgrade and more realistic hands and lantern.
