Coff-O-Pult-Elator

This is an 8 foot angled coffin with two doors hiding the internal prop lunger. It is all pneumatic and digitally controlled, and features 6 movements. When triggered by pressure mat , switch or internal timer, the front doors dramatically open revealing the gothic vampire prop hovering inside of the coffin. As if that were not enough, 1 second later, the gothic vampire thrusts out 3 feet from the coffin toward the crowd with a loud wailing. The entire unit automatically resets withdrawing the vampire into the coffin and closing the doors. This unit features digital sound, two digital dual-timers, three heavy duty pneumatic cylinders, two 4 way 3 port solenoid valves, and 4 pneumatic regulators for vampire and coffin speed adjustments. It requires 120 Volts, and 50 PSI air compression. It's internals are comprised of welded and bolted steel. It weighs over 300 pounds at a production and labor cost of over $2500.00 .
