    I ordered this prop and it was delivered yesterday and some folks wanted to see what it looks like up close so here ya' go:

    Pic from Hauntedprops.com:


    Laying on my floor (the flash shows up when I take the pic of it on the window):


    Close up of the face:


    Back part of prop that attaches to inside of window:


    Back of the head that attaches to the front of the window (uses 2 suction cups):


    There is a bulb inside his head and inside each of his hands and a battery pack to light him up. Also, I would like to add that he is a little more gray in color than he appears in these pictures. I just didn't feel like editing them.

    I was wondering about this. Thanks for the pictures. I didn't realize that half of it is outside the window.

    With that concept, it could easily be made yourself having anything crash through the windows. Hmmmm....

    i WOULD LOVE TO SEE A PIC OF IT IN THE WINDOW ANYWAY.
    HOW MUCH WAS IT?
    i LIKE THE EFFECT

    also, how strong are those suction cups. The ones I has used in the past are notorious for falling off

    The suction cups seem to be pretty good. The problem that I had was when I initially took it out of the box, the plastic backing (the part with the suction cups), for the face separated from the front. Same thing happened with the hands. I peeled off the factory glue and replaced it with my own hot glue and some staples (hidden under the hair) and that seems to work well. I would leave a small opening though so that you can get your fingers in there to be able to put pressure on the suction cups. Otherwise you will have to press directly on the face and you might crack it.

    I'm actually thinking of not even using it on a window. I only paid $30 for it and might use the face in one of my body bags with a bumble ball rolling around inside and use the hands for a grave ghoul we are building. Not sure yet though.

    I figured out too, that I could just pull the bulb off the backing and attach it and a suction cup directly to the back of the face. That makes it lighter and less likely to fall off the window.

    Good idea.The two suction cups doesn't seem like enough to hold the head.I was thinking of adding a middle one but I like your idea better.
    I really like mine now that it is fixed and haunted props is a really great shop.
    I was eyeing the standing zombie they have -buycostumes has a yard stake of the same guy.I have really over bought this year.I already have a want list for next year.

    Thank you for the pics SB! I DO like the face now that I see your pics a little better. Still am afraid of the suction cups tho'. I just KNOW the front half will be laying on the ground each day with the temp changes and wind/rain.I'm thinking of running a wire up thru/over my window pane and attaching both halves for added strength. Thanks again!

    I agree with you about the frustration of putting it back on the window every day. I was thinking of using powerful magnets instead of the suction cups to fix that dilemma. Your wire idea is also terrific.
