From the makers of FrightMaps

FrightBuddies

Horror desk buddies whose whole face is a living screen. They blink, they talk, and they come alive when their partner is near.

A face that's alive

Every FrightBuddy's face is a round AMOLED screen set into the sculpt, so the face isn't painted on: it moves.

Idle

Never still

Jack's candle flickers, Boo floats, Wraps nods off and jerks awake. Every face blinks, glances and has a signature tic.

Talk

Says it in character

When it speaks, the mouth follows the voice: a werewolf's snarl, a zipper that gapes, a coal smile that becomes an O.

React

Knows its partner

Put two together and they notice each other. Morrow's monocle pops out when he sees Veil; Krampus reads Flurry the list.

Till Death: Veil and Morrow, two screens playing one scene.

The Buddies

Eight cute-creepy desk buddies, each sitting on its own little scene that hides the battery.

The Horror Wave

Eight over-the-top characters, each standing in a full diorama. Every one has a Haunter Edition too.

The ChristmasPrism Line

Five Christmas buddies for ChristmasPrism, the Christmas-lights map. Krampus, Veil and Morrow carry Halloween into Christmas.

The Haunter Edition

The horror wave, made for real haunters: new sculpts with bear traps, guts, skeletal wings and spare heads, scarier faces, a grime wash and blood. And a jump scare: the face lunges at the glass with a scream.

Duos

Two screens, one diorama. Each pair plays its own scene across both faces.

Talking Duo

Jack & Boo

Jack's pumpkin patch meets Boo's graveyard, with a lamp post between them. He tells the joke; she cracks up.

Play the scene to watch both screens act it out.

Graveyard Shift

Rot & Reaper

Rot claws out of his grave while the Reaper looms and points. A crypt, an open grave, a dead tree and a lantern.

Play the scene to watch both screens act it out.

Naughty List

Krampus & Flurry

Krampus has unrolled the naughty list across the snow at Flurry, under a lamppost strung with lights.

Play the scene to watch both screens act it out.

Caught

Butch & Howl

Haunter Edition. Butch's bear trap has Howl by the leg, at the edge of his slaughter shed.

Play the scene to watch both screens act it out.

Till Death

Veil & Morrow

Veil and Morrow's graveyard wedding: a twisted arch with a bell, a tattered aisle, candles, and a black wedding cake.

Play the scene to watch both screens act it out.

Plugged into FrightMaps

Planned features. FrightBuddies are in development, so these may change before launch.

Talks back

Ask it anything. It answers in character, with its face moving to the words.

When can I get one?

We're aiming to ship the first batch in December. People on the waitlist hear first.

No. FrightBuddies are desk decorations for ages 14 and up.
