PHT1141 Pirate Hangman Thrasher PoisonProps.com

Poison Props showcases their PHT1141 Pirate Hangman Thrasher, a roughly 7-foot pneumatic animatronic corpse that plays dead before launching into a dramatic thrashing sequence — head rising, arms grabbing, and legs kicking as if fighting the noose. The unit ships as a complete plug-and-play package including the character, pneumatics, a programmed controller, and a motion sensor. An optional gallows and metal base are available separately, as is an audio package with a digital player, powered speaker, and scream effect. Power and a compressed air supply are the only on-site requirements.
