The Dementor from Harry Potter is an awesome and super scary monster! This flying wraith feeds on happiness and consumes human souls, leaving them an empty husk. When we saw the Spirit Halloween’s Harvester of Souls animatronic by Tekky Toys, we knew that he was destined to be turned into a Dementor!!
We started by changing his pose so that it would give the illusion that it’s flying. We cut apart and sculpted his face to give him the classic "Dementor’s kiss" mouth shape. A new paint job and tattered costume completed his look.
We wanted to change the little girl into Harry Potter…but with a twist. This time, there was no Patronus charm to save him and Harry Potter has been left in a state worse than death. To make Harry Potter, we repainted the original child’s face, gave it a haircut, and Harry’s iconic scar, glasses, and robe.
This was a really fun DIY animatronic project for us, and we love how it turned out - the fluttering costume, the glowing fog effect of the Dementor’s Kiss, and especially the terrified look on Harry Potter’s Face . We really hope you enjoyed seeing the Dementor and Harry Potter in real life. Let us know what characters you want to see next!

The boy who lived.

I worked on Azkaban as part of the creature crew, and think this works really well. Well done. :)
-
Make a slenderman animatronic
-
“WHAT HAVE YOU’VE DONE TO MY MOUTH?” 😂😂😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣
-
Absolutely next-level incredible. It is a shame that the excellent face paint was covered, but the final effect with the cloth was great. The fan for the body really made it special! awesome
-
Honestly the spooky cloth layering is exactly what I did to make a ring wraith costume a couple years ago. Really good for getting that layered and flowing look
-
As a former Dementor, i can safely say that you made it look EXACTLY like me! Great Job guys! 🤘
-
Henry, age 8: “If I won the animatronic I would paint it. A lot. I watch your videos all the time with my dad and love animatronics so so much. I want to make its arms bigger too.”
-
Fantastic build. The paint jobs you guys do are so good. And the humor and good spirits really show a great example of being a maker.
-
I've always wanted to makeover this one after I saw K&T do their Pharaoh version. The first idea I had was the spirit of an old sea captain getting revenge on a friend who betrayed them but I'd probably come up with something else to make more sense with the rest of my halloween setup.
-
I can't lie, these videos got me into customizing animatronics a while back. I'm sure I'm not ready for a project as big as this I'm sure I could find a way to make it fit my exorcist themed house. Maybe by reversing the fan/fog to make it look like the girl is getting possessed?
-
This is fantastic! Using the chicken wire mesh to have a more horizontal angle really set it apart from classic 'droopy' ghoul style props. Paired later with a low laying fog machine and it's pure heebie-jeebies. I'd make my Harvester of Souls into a Xenomorph from the Alien movie franchise. And have an inner jaw come out during the fog effect. I have an old astronaut costume with a helmet that has a visor that opens so I can use it with bubble wrap to fill it out to make the adult 'host'.
-
Love your guys' makeovers! They always look so wicked!!
-
The finished look of the grey mouth and the shroud around it is insanely cool! It looks amazing guys! If had a harvester of souls I'd def want to customize it. I dont know if it would be anywhere near the level of stuff y'all accomplish but it would be fun to experiment and have a one of kind piece because the fog suck effect is insanely cool.
-
Really great watch! I appreciate your content, especially that you aren’t afraid to showcase the mistakes/learning that are part of arriving at a finished product!
-
I think that you guys absolutely outdid yourselves with this one, it’s like you guys get even better with each prop you make! “And what would you do if you won?” You may be asking? I would be excited but I would also be able to get my first life-size animatronic ever and I would be so thankful if I won. But even if I don’t win, I know that whoever wins will be just as excited.
-
This turned out amazing. It really looks like it was always supposed to be harry potter themed. I really loved the added touch with the broken wand. I'm not quite sure what I'd do with a harvester of souls, but it would sure look great next to my wife's and my other horror collectables. lol
-
As a Harry Potter fan this may be my favorite makeover y’all have done! If I had a Harvester of Souls, I would want to do my own version of this! Y’all did an amazing job! I love it!
-
Great work! Maybe Dark Dr Strange sucking America Chavez’s soul!
-
Thank you for being an inspiration and for the amazing builds! This conversion is really amazing and shows a whole new realm of possibilities with animatronics.
