Monsters are scary, but a monster that sings? That’s a nightmare. This life-sized creature is a scary, moving, blinking and blabbering beast. At six feet tall, the monster's animatronic head, mouth and eyes all move to properly frighten children and small pets. Also, his heart and brain light up to remind you that he has feelings too. Not to mention—he collapses down for easy storage in a closet or under a bed, where he truly belongs.
