Unboxing: Spirit Halloween Teases New Line Of Animatronics With Graveyard

The splendid and spooky folks at Spirit Halloween sent us a mystery surprise! When I opened the cardboard box, I found a big wooden box with “Spirit Hallows Cemetary” carved on its lid. I was surprised when I opened it to discover a miniature graveyard and a small shovel. I found a plastic pull, and it opened, revealing a dirt-filled grave. I dug up a casket. Inside I found a vampire, which is a magnet, wrapped up in bloody rags. After I closed the box, one of the coolest things we’ve ever gotten, I scanned the code on the back of the card that came with it, and it took me to a page with a video (watch it below) and a list of tombstones teasing the names of the new animatronics Spirit Halloween will soon release.
