Samantha was an animatronic sold by Spirit Halloween for the 2009 Halloween season. It resembled a young girl in an old-fashioned dress. It had sharp teeth and was holding a lollipop. When activated, the eyes flashed green while the head spun around and crying could be heard.
Spirit Halloween’s Description
“Just one reason you never want to babysit on Halloween - little Samantha will take you for a sucker if you don't look out! Even the playground isn't safe with Samantha on the loose - she's a biter and she has a mean disposition, even on a sunny day. Her head turns, her eyes glow red and she utters scary sounds - sounds like she's related to Rosemary's Baby or Linda Blair (do you see a resemblance because we do!)”
- The motion activated Animated Samantha Prop is a whirlwind of activity - she emits creepy sounds, her LED eyes glow red, her head actually spins while she utters her evil noises.
- Dressed in a lace-trimmed party dress, she holds a red and white lollipop in her hands and she does not want to share.
- Requires 4 AA batteries (not included)
- Optional try me button sold separately
Trivia
- A video filmed by Spirithalloweenmn in 2009, shows the animatronic with a moving mouth and talking at The Flagship Store.
- Despite being a scrapped feature, produced models still have a mouth mechanism inside the head and the box still states the animatronic has a moving mouth.
- While the official description of the animatronic claims it had red eyes, they were actually green.
- In the 2013 Samantha demo, her head spins to the right instead of the left.
- This item was the same audio as Goodnight Kiss and Little Luci although pitched differently.
- The item was confirmed to not be produced by Morbid Enterprises by the company's previous owner. This is most likely the same case as Voice from the Grave with Gemmy being printed on the barcode instead of Seasonal Visions.
