Morris Costumes 2022 REVEALED as... Nothing? | Halloween & Party Expo 2022 Booth FOOTAGE - HPE2022

GMHaunts takes viewers inside the Morris Costumes booth at the 2022 Halloween & Party Expo, where the anticipated animatronic lineup failed to materialize — apparently due to ongoing import difficulties.

The result is a notably sparse booth that leaves the haunt community with more questions than answers heading into the 2022 season.
