PoisonProps.com | CC936 Chained to the Ceiling | HALLOWEEN

Poison Props showcases the CC936, a ceiling-mounted pneumatic animatronic depicting a chained, suspended figure that lunges to life when triggered. On activation, the character's arms reach and grab, its torso bends, and its head sweeps side to side for a multi-axis overhead scare effect. The unit ships as a plug-and-play package including the character, pneumatics, a pre-programmed controller, and a motion sensor, with an optional digital sound system available. Installation is streamlined via four quick-link clips and four mounting brackets, requiring only AC power and a compressed air supply at 100 psi.
