Electric Chair Halloween Prop
September 23, 2008
This insane Electric Chair Halloween Prop ($1,795.00) will scare the crap out of anyone! Push the button and you hear electrical wind up. The chair fires, and he launches into a frenzy. The electrocution ends and he comments as the machinery winds down. Due to intense thrashing, you’ll need to chain or bolt the chair down! It is powered by an air compressor (not included). I know you are thinking Halloween is still a month away, but special item objects like this can take up to 4 – 8 weeks for delivery.

More than a re-usable thermos-type contraption, this baby is a “personal hydration vessel” – and she’s gorgeous! Quick, get your eco-chic butt over to KOR ONE and see how for only $29 you can be the first rich kid on your block to have this sleek, BPA-free un-bottle.
