This tutorial walks viewers through building a moving, animated disembodied head prop by repurposing a motorized witch's broom Halloween decoration. The motor mechanism from the existing decoration is cleverly converted to animate a zombie-like severed head, making this a low-barrier entry point into DIY animatronics. Crafters are encouraged to customize the head's appearance to suit their own haunt aesthetic, whether that's a witch's den, graveyard display, or haunted house room.
This step-by-step tutorial walks viewers through building an animated, motorized magic spell book prop ideal for a Hocus Pocus or Harry Potter-themed Halloween display.

The approach is accessible enough for all skill levels and is well suited to family-friendly haunts or spooky themed displays.
