Wireless Halloween prop control · Orders closed

Your props know exactly when to scare.

FrightLink Motion Sensor, Control Hub, and Wireless Prop Trigger

A motion sensor notices the guest. The Hub runs your timing. Every prop hits on cue.

FrightLink turns the Try Me and step-pad animatronics you already own into an automatic, coordinated show—without an operator, loose yard wiring, or internet connection standing by.

FrightLink Control Hub between a Motion Sensor and Wireless Prop Trigger
Production FrightLink hardware: Control Hub, Motion Sensor and Wireless Prop Trigger.
Three pieces. Three obvious jobs.

The names are memorable. The jobs are simple.

1
Motion Sensor — “Ghost”

Place it where guests walk. It detects movement and tells the Hub to begin.

2
Control Hub — “Hub”

Plug it in once. It stores your scene and sends each cue at the right time.

3
Wireless Prop Trigger — “Executioner”

Plug it into a prop's Try Me jack when that prop is too far from the Hub for a cable.

Why do Ghost and Executioner look alike? They intentionally share the same rugged enclosure. Their assigned role in the FrightMaps app tells you whether that unit senses a guest or triggers a prop.

60-second compatibility check

Will FrightLink work with my prop?

Look for a port labeled Try Me, Step Pad, or External Trigger. We’ll suggest a setup, then help verify your prop model and trigger interface before you connect it.

Real hardware. Real props.

Watch FrightLink run an actual haunt.

These short field demos show the real event chain: a sensor detects movement, the Hub runs its assigned scene, and connected animatronics react.

I was running wires everywhere, wiring up PIR sensors, clicking a remote because no one ever gets close enough to trigger anything. FrightLink solved so many problems in one box — my visitors trigger the animatronics themselves from the sidewalk.

FrightLink Labs · In development FrightVoice

Give your characters something to say.

FrightVoice is an interactive voice and animation platform for animatronics — designed to let characters hear guests, choose relevant responses, speak, move with their dialogue, and receive entirely new content after purchase.

It is being built for animatronic manufacturers, prop builders and interactive attractions.

Questions

Frequently Asked

FrightLink uses its own dedicated wireless mesh between the Hub, sensors, and Executioners — built for low latency and reliability in noisy haunt environments. Bluetooth is only used briefly during initial Hub setup with the FrightMaps app.
FrightLink is designed for compatible Try Me, step-pad, or external-trigger inputs. A matching connector alone does not confirm compatibility; check the prop model and trigger interface before connecting it. An Executioner connects a supported prop to the Hub. When Ghost reports visitor movement, the Hub runs the assigned scene and sends that Executioner its scheduled output cue. No replacing your prop or its built-in program.
Choose Wired Starter for nearby wired props. Choose Automatic Scene Kit when you want a motion sensor to begin one complete scene. Choose Wireless Prop Kit when that scene includes a prop too far from the Hub for a cable. Whole Yard Kit starts with three sensor zones and three wireless prop outputs.
No. The core path — visitor movement → Ghost event → Hub scene logic → wired output or Executioner — works locally without internet or a phone standing by. Remote status, backups, updates, and off-property test tools require Hub WiFi.
Up to 600 ft line of sight between the Hub and any device under ideal conditions, with mesh hops extending coverage further. Typical real-world range is 100-300 ft depending on walls, fences, and metal between devices. For whole-yard haunts we recommend placing the Hub centrally.
Yes. Assign each Ghost to a separate Hub scene: movement at Sensor A can run Scene A while movement at Sensor B runs Scene B, even in the same room. Sensors report events to the Hub; they do not directly activate every nearby prop or communicate with Executioners themselves.
Your hardware keeps working locally. Ghost events, Hub scene logic, and scheduled outputs continue running. Remote status, off-property testing, and cloud backup pause until you resume.
Sensors and Executioners run on a 3000mAh LiPo. In typical Halloween-night use (deep sleep between triggers) you'll get a full evening on a single charge, with battery life depending on trigger frequency and sensor type. We recommend topping off the day of.
Yes, FrightLink is designed for sheltered outdoor haunt setups. The hardware uses IP-rated components, conformal-coated PCBs, and gasketed enclosures to help resist moisture. The assembled devices are weather-resistant, not waterproof, so place them under a porch, overhang, or weather cover. Do not leave them in direct rain or submerge them.
