Deadly Roots was an animatronic sold by Spirit Halloween for the 2017 Halloween season, and online for the 2018 Halloween season. It resembled a tree with a menacing face, two branches that resembled arms with claws, and two branches on the top that resembled antlers. When activated, it lunged forward, as the mouth moved to eerie phrases. As this occurred, the eyes glowed green.
