Spirit Halloween has already previewed a handful of new animatronics that they’ll be releasing this spooky season, including Terrifier 3‘s Art the Clown and demon Valak from The Nun.
What else is coming from Spirit Halloween this year? The company has just announced a brand new animatronic from Trick ‘r Treat, which will be their second Sam animatronic!
This new one stands – or rather, sits – 3-feet, 4-inches tall, and it features Sam sitting on a bale of hay with a jack o’lantern in front of him and his trusty candy bar blade in his hand.
Spirit previews, “From Michael Dougherty’s classic Halloween film, Trick ‘r Treat, comes Sam, the Spirit of Halloween who enforces the holiday’s ancient traditions.
“To the untrained eye, Sam might look like just another kid out trick or treating, but what’s hidden beneath his eerie costume is anything but sweet. Sam’s burlap sack hides his true sinister face, and while his pumpkin lollipop might look tasty, when wielded by little Sam, it becomes a deadly weapon.
“So if Sam appears on your doorstep this Halloween, you better be wearing a costume and be ready with a bowl full of treats, or you could be in for one hell of a trick.
“Watch as his head moves side to side and his pumpkin lights up with orange LEDs, all while a melodic version of the song Trick or Treat, Smell My Feet plays along to his movements.”
What’s particularly interesting about the animatronic is that Sam is outfitted with rear-projector technology that allows him to project his Rules of Halloween on a wall behind him!
Sam is shipping now, and he can invited into your home for $249.99!
Over 1,500 Spirit Halloween stores are on track to open this Halloween season across the country, with some stores opening as early as mid-August. Keep your eyes peeled out there…
