Sam is an animatronic sold by Spirit Halloween for the 2019 to 2021 Halloween seasons, and returned online in 2022 and 2023, with some stock left in 2024. It resembles a replica of Sam from the movie, Trick 'r Treat. When activated, the body turned from side to side as the arm with a lollipop raised up and down. Music from the film, as well as laughter, played when this occurred.
Spirit Halloween's Description[]
"You’ll be able to show off your horror movie fandom with this officially licensed Sam animatronic! With interchangeable heads, you’ll be able to create the perfect look for your Halloween display. Holding his beloved lollipop, Sam moves back and forth making stabbing motions with his arms and laughs so creepily that it will scare anyone in sight!
Sam from Trick 'r Treat moves his arm up and down in a stabbing motion and his torso moves side to side as he laughs and plays music from the movie. Display him with his classic burlap sack head, or change it up and give everyone a real good scare when you put his unmasked pumpkin head on."
