- The Pumpkin Watchman
The Pumpkin Watchman from HallowFX introduces a silent, creepy character who stalks through your Halloween scene with purpose and presence.

It’s a slow-burn effect that leaves a lasting impression on anyone watching.
This decoration comes in HD format and includes a tunnel version perfect for windows, along with a black background version for versatile use on walls, doors, or scrims. The animation is built to loop seamlessly, with the character entering and exiting the scene in a haunting rhythm that sets the perfect mood for a suspenseful Halloween setup.
