Thread: New Gothic bride prop

Tweet

Wow! The crawler for 99$ thats great! It says on the Gemmy site that it's 5 ft. tall, but if it's only half a body how can it be that tall? And i'm guessing the Hannibal Lector will be going for 250$ also right?

199 are you out of your mind? Frankencuted, hope the prop is better than the name. Thank you Gemmy, I was hoping for something a bit more intriguing than Hannibal Lechter and better quality than that Gemmy Frankenstein with the cheesy heart, brain, and camp sayings they had 3 years ago

If you look at a larger photo of her- she has feet that drag behind her.

So, needless to say I'm VERY excited.

Oooooohhh oohhhhh ohhhhhh!!!! I just found a prop that I am now IN LOVE WITH...it kinda puts the Gothic Bride to rest in my opinion...FROM GRANDIN ROAD...I present to you....

Glowing Cloaked Woman



She reminds me of the Bride in Disney's Haunted Mansion...except instead of a glowing heart...a glowing face that is hidden within her hood.

Glowing Cloaked Woman - Grandin Road

Beauty part is she only costs $129!!! Downer part is she only glows...no sound or motion...but that is okay cause with the right ambient lighting and ground hugging fog, she can be a PERMANENT figure in my graveyard!!

I did a quick photoshop of what it COULD look like...

Well after looking at the Michaels bride I have decided not to get it. She is too small. She is the same size as my donna and she looks like a little girl. I really dont like the Michales Groom.Not impressive enough I dont think. I have decided to make my own headless bride and add some wedding music with screams, wind, flowing gown, and some lighting effects. Similar to awitchincanada's. I think I would like that much better. I am waiting to see if the gothic bride is closer to life size. Maybe I will get her. If not, I do like that grandinroad piece and she is much cheaper than the gothic bride. Hmmmmm cant decide. When I get more info on the Frankencuted I will let you all know.

I love the cloaked woman, but I wish she had a face under her clock. Yes, the idea of nothing is cool, but then why does she have hands? Doesn't make sense to me.

Plus she changes color. I would have preferred she just stay one color.

I know I'm being picky, but $129 is a lot for some gauze and cardboard.

Hahaha...when put like that, you are ABSOLUTELY correct. I was going to complain about you saying she needed a face, but when you throw in the fact she IS merely gauze and cardboard, they could've either LOWERED the price or added some more to her appearance...

I agree that they're both pricey... My only complaint about the Gemmy one, is my witch last year died on Halloween night. If you poll people on the forum, I guarantee there are many, many more with failed Gemmy props. And they certainly don't get any cheaper. I think the Grandin Road Cloaked Woman is pricey also, for what she basically is...so I'm going to try and make her. I don't know if I can capture her eerieness, but we'll see what happens. As for static versus the Gemmy bride...it's a real tossup - sometimes static can be scarier. Especially if they're not sure if it's real or not and if it's GOING to move or not. I like how simple she looks. Plus, the Gemmy bride will be more common. You will definitely have a better chance of having a unique prop with the cloaked woman also, I think. Certainly no one should feel bad about buying either one versus making it. There's plenty of time involved in making it to be considered....
