I PERSONALLY THINK THAT FOR THE PRICE OF "SPOOKY SHADOWS" IT HAS AWESOME SPECIAL EFFECTS! I LIKE THE NUMBER OF DIFFERENT SHADOWS IT REPRESENTED, AND WHEN ALL THE LIGHTS ARE OUT IT MAKES THEM ALL LOOK LIKE AUTHENTIC SHADOWS. THE ABSOLUTELY ONLY THING I WOULD CHANGE WOULD BE MAYBE A SLIGHTLY BRIGHTER BULB.
I would recommend this to a friend!

If I didn't see it and hear it with my own eyes I wouldn't believe that it is possible to buy something so junky and cheap. The internal mechanism runs on C batteries which is fine, but the mechanism itself is so noisy and squeaky that you can hear it from the other room. On top of it, the shadow it casts as the image projector spins is only good for about 4 to 6 inches up the wall so it's really a complete joke. In summary, this product is like one of those gaff items you buy at the old goof stores from the 80s called Spencers.
Pros: inexpensive
Cons: cheap, low quality, not as advertised, waste of money

The lamp did not project as widely around the room as I thought it would. It needed to be centralized by a corner of a wall for best effect. The machinery made a strange grinding noise, and the on/off switch broke off...so we had to throw the lamp away, so it would not overheat.

Very cheaply made - When we 1st turned it on, it squeaked while the dome turned, and then I it stopped turning at all..... Also agree with the other comment that it would only work well in a corner. Just definitely not worth the money!

First, I would like to say that this is the first negative review I have written. I usually feel like you get what you pay for, but not in this case. I bought this "Spooky Shadow" projector to use in a corner of a kids haunted house. I was extremely excited for it to show up...and then I took it out of the box. It is made of extremely cheap plastic and felt like something I would have bought at the 99 cent store. I put batteries in and turned it on. It was really cute so I figured I could get over the cheapy feel of it...THEN I shut it off. I turned it on about an hour later to show my kids and whatever made the "globe" part turn stopped working. So it literally worked for about 1 minute. I am sending it back.
Cons: Assembly, quality

This is a fun product, but... The pictures go around in reverse, so the witch and ghost fly backwards. It makes a low, grinding noise, so plan on unintended sound effects. It's a fun shadowcaster, that would benefit from a couple of improvements!
Cons: quality

After forcing the batteries in the slots the plate to go over would not go back on. Was not impressed with show, has be be pitch black to show anything in a room the size of a small dining room.

I think that this was a little overpriced for what it does. The movement is loud. So not so good for a quite setting. Having said that it really does lite up a room.
