This video spotlights the Distortions Unlimited Colossus, a towering giant animatronic, as featured at the award-winning Lehman Manor Haunt for 2023. Miles McCabe (Brick Thunder) shares how his haunt deploys Colossus and offers tips for using the figure effectively. It also includes behind-the-scenes glimpses of how the animatronic was built before heading to the haunt.
Miles McCabe of the Brick Thunder YouTube channel showcases the Distortions Unlimited Colossus animatronic in action at the Lehman Manor haunt during Halloween 2023. Colossus is a massive figure that sits at roughly 8 feet and rises to around 12 feet tall, featuring animated eyes and mouth, a stand-up-and-sit motion, integrated fog, sound, and a built-in soundtrack. Lehman Manor, the haunt featuring this prop, went on to win The Great Halloween Fright Fight on ABC that same season. The video offers a real-world look at how a large-scale commercial animatronic performs in an actual haunt environment.
The McCabe family tours the Mutant animatronic scene built into their Lehman Manor home haunt, showing how they framed the Distortions Unlimited prop with video, lighting, fog, and detailed set work. The walkthrough highlights how the towering Mutant is staged for maximum intensity, cycling through an ambient program before erupting into fast, savage motion when triggered. It's part showcase, part inspiration for how a professional prop can anchor a themed home-haunt scene.
