"This haunted house has everything: Gravestones, Barbershop quartet cosplayers, Bill Hader with a triangle..."

[parisnurashikinmohamadsupi]

They played robots so well!!!! The movements were on point!!!!

[djlobb]

Tom Hanks' animatronic acting skills are terrifyingly on point! The wonky eyes and mouth movements n all.

[NotSpillingTheTea]

This is my favorite if the Merryville sketches. Bruno is just so good (especially considering he doesn't have an acting background)

[rwolfboy]

“Ok that one’s smoking”
LOL 😂 (btw Bruno absolutely killed it as an animatronic)

[Anfubvinch]

Killam is insanely talented. The guy does a perfect puppet

[judymcgaugh]

I am freaked out by Bruno, he has a bizarre expression that IS scary. You know a skit is good when the characters do not have to talk to make it work. Good writing involved also.

[MalakMacabre]

Dude. Bruno Mars is so fuckin' badass at being animatronic

[rookibofdfc]

The movements to on point. It's like the were real animatronics

[nya___nya]

Tom is that actor that just casually drop by the SNL studio and appears iconically into any skits.. 😆

[Jimmyboygohome]

was this just an excuse to let bruno mars do the robot

[comediccenter]

Bruno Mars, Bill Hader, and Tom Hanks!!! This was freaking epic!!! That's a trio that will make history!!!

[YungM.D.]

Bruno and Taran’s movements are so good it’s kind of unsettling

[LotusExigeS]

Bill Hader’s face when he played the triangle 😂

[Ari-llwp]

Taran absolutely nails this one. And the "boouh" at the end cracks me up the most.

[jenniferlee]

are we not gonna talk about bill vibrating when he does the chainsaw part like a real puppet? that's amazing

[orangejulius]

Remind me to never taunt Disneyland's animatronics.

[punishercastle]

This is the most random cameo I’ve ever seen, but that doesn’t make it less awesome!

[ItsBread-yy]

okay bruno mars was to damn good at that dance

[mikumutual]

Ghosts and ghouls and spooky fools will terrify your dreams
You can't escape the scary fate of a Merryville Halloween
