Santa brought this as a gift, my son is really into Halloween and this will be an excellent addition to his hauntings, there are several lighting options, and patterns to play with. It fogged our house really good on Christmas, glad the neighbors didn't think we were on fire or anything. The remote is awesome will give him walking around advantages, the quick button gives a great blast to get things started. Does take a little bit to warm up but when it does watch out. thumbs up and 5 stars will buy again if he needs another one. Mindy
