Hartley is a 54-inch sitting clown animatronic from Haunted Hill Farm and Tekky that hides behind a candy bowl. When a motion or sound sensor trips, his head pops up and he says "Surprise!" with villainous laughter. A volume knob lets you dial the scare down for small children. It runs on the included plug-in adapter or four AA batteries, so it works on a porch or in a hallway. Compared with standing animatronics, it is compact and light at 5.2 pounds, and the candy-bowl trick gives it a purpose beyond decoration. Reviewers treat it as a fun, modest scare rather than a haunted-house-grade prop.

Owners describe Hartley as a fun, reliable jump-scare for trick-or-treaters, especially kids. They like the candy-bowl setup and the volume control. Some find the single sound loop repetitive and note it needs shelter outdoors.
Hartley the Sitting Scare Clown is a Halloween animatronic prop that sits with a candy bowl. It is motion- and sound-activated. When someone reaches for candy, his head pops up for a jump-scare.
Hartley says "Surprise!" followed by villainous laughter. A volume control knob adjusts the voice and sound effects. He is made of metal, foam, plastic and polyester.
He runs on the included UL plug-in adapter or on 4 AA alkaline batteries, which are not included. Indoor use or covered outdoor use protected from weather is recommended for a longer prop life.
