The Remote Controlled Tarantula.

This remote-controlled tarantula scurries across flat surfaces like an actual arachnid, moving forwards and backwards on command. The spider's thorax and abdomen conceal two motors: one that drives a set of wheels that provide directional movement and one that enables the eight legs to twitch, allowing you to frighten unsuspecting arachnophobes day or night from 25' away. It has a hairy exterior, similar to the urticating hairs that cover a tarantula's abdomen, and its chelicerae suggest two hidden fangs.

Remote requires four AA batteries and tarantula requires one 9-volt battery. Ages 8 and up.

The Telekinetic Obstacle Course.

This is the game that uses your focused brain waves to maneuver a ball through an obstacle course. A headband and two earlobe clips mearsure theta wave activity produced by your brain (similar to EEG monitoring technology used by medical professionals).

As you relax and concentrate, the headband sends a wireless signal (based on your mental commands) to the game's air fan, which increases or decreases its speed, suspending or lowering a foam ball through one of eight obstacles, including hoops, teeter-totters, baskets, or chutes.

The obstacles may be interchanged; includes nine total obstacles. Requires four C batteries and three AAA batteries. Ages 8 and up. 15 1/4"L x 10"W x 5 1/2"H. (2 lbs.)

The touch sensor on/off switch features both manual and automatic shutoff to preserve battery life.

Made from graphite and fiberglass that will not warp over time, the 58" long, two-piece cue has a rubber bumper, comfortable wound-foam handle, and a stainless steel joint and ferrule. Includes two tip scuffers, two chalks, and a hard-side, zippered nylon carrying case with shoulder strap and accessory pocket.

The Voice Activated R2-D2.

This motorized replica of the headstrong little "droid" from the iconic Star Wars films responds to voice commands, navigates rooms and hallways, and makes any home feel like it has been transported to a galaxy far, far away. R2 obeys more than 40 voice commands ("Turn around!", "Move forward two units!") and he plays games like tag, using an infrared sensor to search for people in a room.

His sensor helps him follow behind you, or it can be set to detect motion, turning R2 into a room sentry that sounds an alarm when a secured area is invaded. R2's lights, swiveling dome top, and distinctive happy and sad sounds faithfully mimic the real thing, right down to his occasional "bad mood." (A simple command of, "R2, behave yourself!" snaps him out of it.) R2 can also replay sounds and dialog from Star Wars movies, answer yes-or-no questions, and dance while playing the famed cantina music.

Are there ghosts that lurk around us as we go about our daily lives? Come to your own conclusion and do your own investigation using the Ghost Meter. Aside from a camera, it is the most basic tool for any ghost hunter. When ghostly activity takes place, electromagnetic anomalies often occur in the environment. This meter allows you to detect these electromagnetic frequency (EMF) disturbances.

The Ghost Meter is an accurate instrument with a needle readout that measures from 0 to 5 milligaus and is devoted to monitoring high quality paranormal activity. The Ghost Meter has been calibrated to ignore the extremely subtle EMF emissions surrounding the human body, yet is still sensitive enough to detect the small, distinct, erratic EMF energy fluctuations frequently found at reputed haunted locations. An adjustable audio tone and flashing LED light indicators are built in that allow you to use the meter in the dark or without looking at it and detect activity from far away. It can also be operated in silent mode so it doesn't interfere with EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon) recordings or distract other investigators during an investigation. Be the next ghost hunter and conduct your own paranormal surveys anywhere you go with this lightweight, compact ghost meter.

The Ghost Meter also doubles as a tool to measure the electromagnetic fields of household items and cellular telephones.
