Motorized Overhead Animator | Mechanical DIY HALLOWEEN Prop HOW-TO Tutorial

This DIY Motorized Overhead Animator is a mechanical apparatus that can be used to animate numerous homemade scary props, perfect for your HALLOWEEN display or haunted house. Similar to the mechanism that operates the well known ‘Flying Crank Ghost’, you will find that this unique version is much more versatile. Watch this detailed HOW-TO video tutorial and view the detailed step-by-step instructions that guide you to build your own Overhead Animator, which is motorized by utilizing a standard electric BBQ rotisserie motor.

Once this animator is securely installed overhead, bring your props to life by connecting fishing line to the animator’s numerous moving stations and the prop parts below it. You will be able to make candles float, phantoms levitate, skeletons live, portraits move and animate a whole host of other Halloween props. Using your crafting ability, this motorized prop animator would be a great addition to your ghost filled Halloween display or party!
