Animatronics Just got this guy. Why is he so expensive? And is he worth the price?

Saw him on the floor after getting dark princess and I need smaller boxes since all the animatronics I own were way bigger than his. Is he worth it? He's a movie/TV thing and I like them. But never saw the show.

Honestly, this is a silly post and I thought it would be fun to share. I had about an hour of free time at the register before I left, so I doodled on some of our star papers because we have sooo many of them. Behold.

General Hologram fan 2025 not working

1 Upvotes

I got the 2025 ISE fan last year and connected everything properly and it's not plug and play like I hoped I don't have the controller but I shouldn't need to either I've tried everything for two hours and could not get the wire control box to blink blue like the fan light does so they can display the media. I found the magic 3d app and put a video via wifi on the fan buuuuut it's won't play audio through the speaker and I honestly prefer doing wifi instead of media via the SD card in the control box so if anyone can help with the p80 fan on how to get audio to the speaker from the app or whatever please help ASAP need ready for a party soon! Please and thanks!

General Is this ai???

Idk if I’m tweaking, so someone please let me know. but I got a job here about 2 weeks ago and was tasked with organizing these on the shelves. I couldn’t help but notice that this one box looks like it uses ai art and possibly for the entire projection. The way the clown looked gave me that vibe, but as I began looking at the other designs it really looks like they just generated this and called it a day. Is this really ai? I just wanna make sure

My friend and I were shopping earlier when this song came on. I didn’t get it on camera but part of the song had whip sound effects and it was killing us, if anyone could help identify it I’d appreciate it!! You can hear some of it in the background of this clip

General How accurate is the website for in store availability?

The website says the costume I’m looking for is out of stock at all locations near me, but I’m wondering if it’d still be a good idea to check in-person myself?

Animatronics IR senor in animatronic

3 Upvotes

The IR sensors in their animatronics almost never trigger from where they're placed, I want to extend mine to move it closer to the outside of the body in my maze so it trips as people are walking through first. what would be the best way to extend this? this? would I just cut it out and join a longer wire?

General My package is MIA

0 Upvotes

I ordered the 3 Ft 6 In Electrified Corpse Animatronic on September 24th 2026. Since then legit nothing other than a shipping label has been created. I’ve called twice to customer service and keep being told the product has been shipped.

When checking on shipping status the company responsible for shipping keeps moving the target arrival date.

What do I do here? Has anyone else ever experienced this?

General Camp harbor

So this years theme is camp harbor.

They have an entrance to the cabin and once you reach the other side you reach the lake.

How does the random Freddy fazbear fit in with the theme of lake harbor?

General The cord connecting our light up ghosts was severed

My dad bought the light up ghost pathway shown in the second picture a few days ago. When I went to go check on it last night, the cord connecting the first ghost to the second one had been cut, so only the first ghost could light up, It had most likely been chewed on by a rabbit. Anyways, how do I fix this?

General End of Season Plea

223 Upvotes

So here we are at the last week/week 1/2 of returns and exchanges for Spirit. As an AM, I wanted to come on here because I am truly at my wits end.

Guests, our returns stop on the 16th, and exchanges stop on the 22nd. The item cannot be damaged (unless purchased as such) and cannot be returned with pet hair or if it's clearly been worn. This is a company-wide policy that has been in place for a very long time. It is on your receipts and it's posted at the register. I mention it every time I check a guest out. For many people, this is a non-issue. However, a very unfortunate number of guests do not agree with this and believe it's within their right to berate, harass, and even assault our sales associates and us management.

I am here to literally beg you to stop.

Most of these associates are kids. For some, this is their first job. Whatever your upset, they do not deserve to be treated as if it's their fault you missed the return window. It is not the fault of us managers. We are working at a temporary store for little pay and deserve at the very least your respect.

In the 5 years I've worked at Spirit, I dread this part of the season the most. I have seen so many grown people throw absolute tantrums over this and I have been at the receiving end more times than I can count. Once, a woman threw a costume at my coworker's face. I'm not a particularly confrontational person and do not like having to maintain composure while being screamed at over a Fortnite Peely costume your child couldn't fit, but I do, because that is my job and because I do not believe in hurting a stranger with my words.

I am just asking for the same respect we show you, because at the end of the day we are just people. Please remember that.

Thank you for listening.


Edit: Wow, I'm simultaneously glad and sad this has popped off lol. I know it's just a reddit post and we're still going to get the bad apples here and there, but it's a bittersweet relief to know we're not alone at least. Good luck finishing out the season, guys—at the end of the day this is a Halloween store and we'll still have fun regardless.

Costumes What's up with all the half masks?

23 Upvotes

One thing that's always bugged me about spirit halloween is that most of their masks (at least for most official collab costumes) are almost always half masks and not full masks for some reason. I understand it's cheaper to make half masks but I don't get why they don't make more full masks that are just more expensive.

Costumes Costume Identification

I cannot for the life of me figure out which costume these accessories go to. it’s a black headband with triangle hat and Pom Pom, an elastic neck collar (I think?), and a black and dirty printed white sock. I thought it was art the clown related but I don’t think it is.
