Allen Hopps of StiltbeastStudios walks through a simple, budget-friendly method for building realistic, posable snake props suitable for haunted attractions or home haunts. The snakes are constructed from common hardware and craft store materials, resulting in pieces that hold a variety of poses and produce dramatic movement when attached to even lightly animated rigs. Each snake can be customized in color and pattern to add variety throughout a scene. The technique scales well, making it easy to populate an entire room with a convincing infestation.
Poison Props showcases the SD1129 Snakes Drop, a professional-grade pneumatic animatronic featuring five snakes that hide overhead and suddenly plunge down on a bar, shaking and writhing face-to-face with haunt patrons. The rig drops from roughly ten feet to seven feet, putting the snakes at eye level for maximum scare impact. Designed for easy top-of-maze-wall mounting, the unit ships as a complete plug-and-play package including snakes, drop rig, pneumatics, a programmed controller, and a motion sensor. An optional audio package adds a digital player, powered speaker, and scream sound effect.
