Let me start off by saying most of our pre-made haunt items were bought from them, including our life-sized animated Jason that I adore.
That said, there's something that bothers me. Last year we bought several smaller things to round out the haunt. One such thing was this "full skull outdoor prop":
Full Skull Prop at Spirit Halloween
Looked pretty cool in the pic. It arrives and it is a piece of garbage. The description says "foam filled" and that was a complete lie. The prop is made of very thin latex - so thin that it can't even hold it's own shape. It has no backing, so it kind of sinks into itself until it's a flabby mess. The color was completely faded like it was a store display left in the sun for a couple years.
Needless to say, I was unhappy with this item. So I wrote an honest review of it and gave it 1 star. This was months ago and the site still shows this product as having no reviews. So it looks to me like they trash the rants and just keep the raves.
I know it's not the most important thing in the world, but this really took the wind out of my sails as a fan of Spirit Halloween.

Maybe they filter The reviews for the big props? I was looking at the pop up grim reaper prop and it seems to have a lot of rant reviews dating back to 08. Animated Rise From the Grave Grim Reaper in Decorations Animatronics / Animations ( bottom of page) Those rants are enough to keep me from buying. Like I said mabe they only care about reviews for the big stuff.
Build it and they will come.

All the reviews I see are from 2008. Maybe, they are willing to leave some reviews up, but it has to be fixed in a way.
"Dollar Tree - The High Price to Pay for $1 Prices" China stuff, taking out other stores, around every corner - 136 in 100 miles, poor wages for employees. - I only say this because people say the same stuff about Wal-Mart, but than they go to Dollar Tree.

I posted a review at Spirit Halloween in early September, I noticed a couple of weeks ago that it wasn't up yet, but I just checked and not only was it up, but there a BUNCH more up now, too. Maybe this thread made them hurry up and get them posted . . .
