I wanted to try something different and put some children in my graveyard. I came to the conclusion that they would need a teeder todder. What better than an old wooden cross and a rock?? This took forever because I didn't really have anything to go by. With the help of a few friends it has become something awesome and creepy. It rocks back and forth with a wiper motor and while doing so, the little girl turns her head to look at you with a vent motor hooked up inside her chest cavity. I will keep adding pics and will gladly welcome any ideas/suggestions to make it better.

I began with a wiper motor and an old piece of barn wood.

dressed them up and decided I wanted the girl to turn her head, and look back and forth. Installed a vent motor and decided the range.

chained her to the cross and stabbed him to it.

Just with still pictures it looks creepy, awesome job all around the armature, the distressing of clothes, the fabrication, it's just fantastic

It was a place in California, A Corpse Maker. He was one of the only people I could find that would make a zombie head that was a kid! He did great work, I think it makes the entire prop!

Very nice. Love that you made the legs pivot - makes them look so much more 'alive'.

the boys hands are a set of groundbreaker hands from Spirit Halloween (if you look closely you can tell they are too big). And the girls hands were a pair I bought from another local Halloween store. Both hands were shaped with a heat gun then painted. The girl has only one foot due to the fact they only sold a right foot. I painted it then just put a pink shoe on the other foot (PVC elbow).

pureevil548--I am going to be doing a Zombie theme for next Halloween and was planning a kids play area of zombies. I was wondering if you could PM me some detailed information about the build so I can try to replicate your awesome job. Main part I am looking for Is the motor and motion of the teeter totter.

Thank You.

P.S. Love It!!
