FAQs
Can I use this ghost outside?
Yes, but it must be in a covered outdoor area. It is not waterproof and should be protected from rain, snow, and direct moisture.
How does the activation work?
The ghost utilizes sensors that respond to three inputs: sound, touch, or vibration, allowing it to trigger when someone enters its proximity.
Does the ghost require assembly?
The product typically comes with a structure that requires minimal setup to connect the base and the torso for standing display.
Can I turn off the sound?
The sound effects are integrated with the animation sequence. Check the control switch on the unit to see if there is a 'silent mode' or 'light only' setting.
Is the ghost battery-operated?
Please check your specific unit's manual, as most motorized decorations of this type require standard batteries or a dedicated plug-in adapter.
What is the best way to store it?
Store in a cool, dry place inside a box. Ensure the hair is brushed smooth and the fabric is clean to prevent matting or odors.
Troubleshooting
The ghost is not activating when people walk by.
Ensure the sensors are not blocked and the unit is set to the correct 'on' mode. Check if the environment is loud enough to trigger the sound sensor or if the surface needs a slight vibration.
The eyes are flickering or dim.
Check your power connection or replace the batteries, as low voltage will often cause the LED lights to fail before the motor stops working.
The motorized swaying motion is stuck.
Inspect the waist area for any tangles in the dress fabric or hair that might be preventing the motor from moving the torso.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your ghost, ensure the unit is positioned on a flat, stable surface or hung securely by the support structure. Since the unit relies on electronic components for the lights and motor, strictly avoid direct exposure to rain or snow; if using outdoors, place it under a porch roof or canopy. When cleaning, use only a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust from the dress or hair. When storing, ensure the motorized torso is in a neutral position and remove any batteries (if applicable) to prevent leakage during the off-season.
