Halloween 2022 - Who's Spooking Who?!?

For Halloween 2022 I made a motorized, 5-foot tall, automaton for our front yard which scares passers-by.
This automaton, which is set in the graveyard of Sinister Minister, evolved daily for the month of October 2022.  It started with a lonely witch flying in the moonlit sky and ended with a full cast of characters - Dracula, the Grim Reaper, a ghost, a killer khazi, a pop-up skeleton and Sinister Minister.
​
Because the aerial chase changed direction every day, it was titled "Who's Spooking Who?".

A crank slider mechanism was used for the aerial chasers. A second motor drives the ground level action.

I'll post more info and photos soon...
