The Rotten Ringmaster with Caged Kid, also known as Rotten Ringmaster, was an animatronic sold by Spirit Halloween for the 2019 Halloween season. It resembled an abnormally tall ringmaster, holding a young girl in a cage. When activated, the eyes lit-up yellow, as it spoke one of several eerie phrases, while the girl screamed and seemingly attempted to escape.
Spirit Halloween's Description[]
"You always hear stories about the creepy clowns, but no one ever talks about the rotten ringmasters! This guy, for example, was always the nicest one at the circus. He was friendly and sweet and loved seeing everyone faces light up in delight. Until one day, something changed. His demeanor went sour and his face became distorted. His pleasant smile turned into an evil grin, and he was mean to everyone and everything in sight. Legend has it, he was fired because he started to trap little kids in the monkey cages, so we’re warning you now: Do not let your little ones leave your sight when the circus comes to town!"
"The Rotten Ringmaster moves from side to side, showing off his caged prey to anyone who walks by. Inside, his victim rocks back and forth as she struggles to break free while the Ringmaster’s jaw moves up and down as he taunts his victim and laughs at your fear."
