Thread: Zombie escape motor ?

Tweet

I am wanting to make the zombie escape prop.I know it was originaly done with a massager motor.Has anyone used another type of motor with this prop.I don't have a massager motor and for the price I could buy another type of motor.I have been checking on ebay and they still run between 25-30 with shipping.
If someone has used another type of motor could you please post how you did it.

Ok so I guess no one has done one any other way.So I will do it with a massager motor.

What is the Zombie Escape prop?
Is it like a grave grabber??

Here is one Another bites the dust/grave zombie - Halloween Forum
I had originally seen the one done by spooksam his is called zombie escape.

I would love to do this prop but would like to use a wiper motor.

You could probably use a smaller motor and get the same movement by building the zombie on a "crank slider" mechanism:

Cams and cam followers

Nope you want what I built following Spooky Sam's idea!

MrOct31: I love that zombie! Do you have a tutorial or link? It's great

This is the one I followed so if I can do it anyone can!

The only thing I can add to this you need to play around with the plumbers tape in how you screw it into the piping. Don't be afraid to get it tight or else you can end up with a prop like this:

Unless of course you like that much action!

Thats awesome! It's on my list!
