How does it work?
Set Hollowjack on the porch, press the button to pick a mode, and he runs the rest of the night on his own. The motion sensor hidden in his stem picks up anyone who walks within a few feet and he starts talking to them, so trick-or-treaters get greeted without you doing a thing. He cycles through more than 80 minutes of animation, so the same kid can come back three times and hear something new every time.

Can he sit outside?
Can he sit outside?
Yes, on a covered porch or under an overhang. Hollowjack is built for porches and indoor rooms, not for standing in direct rain, so keep him under cover the way you would any lit decoration. He runs on the included cord or on batteries, which means you can put him wherever the kids will find him instead of wherever the outlet is.
Is he going to drive me crazy by October 3rd?
Is he going to drive me crazy by October 3rd?
No, because you control him. Volume runs from a whisper to full porch blast, and silent mode plays the vintage animations with no sound at all. Most parents run him quiet during the week and turn him all the way up on trick-or-treat night.

The House Kids Remember
Every street has one house that trick-or-treaters talk about all year, and it is never the one with the most decorations. It is the one where something surprised them. A pumpkin that calls out to a kid out of nowhere beats an entire yard of tombstones.
Off, He's Just A Pumpkin
Silent mode runs 80 minutes of vintage Halloween animations with no sound, so he works at a dinner party as easily as he works on the porch. Switch him off completely and he sits there looking like an ordinary jack o lantern until you want him back.
