yesterday I was out and about trying to find something fun to send my favorite nephew in order to celebrate the ancient pagan ritual of the unliving. so I went down to my trusty local Walgreens to check out the metric shitload of cheapo halloween junk they always have on display this time of year.
anyway, I ended up going for a $20 toy called "The Thing in the Cage". It's about two feet tall, basically a generic ugly skeleton beast thingy trapped in a box, that rattles the bars a bit while the recorded voice pleads "please let me out! pleeeeaaaaassse!" and groans... but after a few seconds the voice turns menacing and he starts shaking the cage really violently and shouts "LET ME OUT! LET ME OUT!". good stuff. a picture (even if I could find one) wouldn't do it justice, you have to hear the voice.
