Description
PLEASE NOTICE: DUE TO SHIPPING REGULATIONS AND/OR THE COST TO SHIP THIS LOT, WE ARE ONLY ACCEPTING BIDS WITH FINAL DESTINATIONS IN THE USA.The Escaping Vampire (or Vampire Block or Vampire Die or Visible Vampire as this type of block penetration is often known as today) was created by Ben Wallace c. 1945.
This is a one of a kind stage version of the custom Vampire’s built in 2020 especially for Hocus Pocus by a good friend and craftsmen. It is more detailed than the regular size and stands almost 17″ high with a 4″ block. It is quite impressive to behold. And of course works perfectly. The tower is sturdy and interesting, the block is heavy and solid with a strong brass chain, and the spike is also hefty and memorable.
Effect: A Vampire, symbolized by a block with a bat on the front and back, is lowered into his tomb, which is a wooden tube, also with a hole that corresponds to the one in the block. A metal stake, which is shown to be solid, is passed through the holes. With no false moves, you grasp a chain fastened to the top of the block and slowly pull the block up through the rod, and thus the Vampire makes its escape.
