Pester78 creates a [LEGO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pingu-set) set that brings a sense of nostalgia celebrating [Monster's Inc](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/animation-moviethemed-tech-accessories) -- the set creates Boo's Door when it is complete. These doors are docked on top of a rig and function as portals into the other world where monsters would go about scaring children.

The screams that were collected would then go into charging a battery cell attached to the aforementioned rig. The LEGO recreation rebuilds the rig with fine details, capturing the pivotal part of the [nostalgic film](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fandomhonoring-building-block-sets). The entire rig is also made to move with fine accuracy -- it replicates the movie frame by frame as the door locks into position and is secured by two mechanical jaws on both sides.
