## What is iHalloween?

Put it on the porch. It sees them coming, and it screams.

iHalloween turns an iPhone or an iPad into a haunted porch. An ambience plays through your speaker, a glowing pumpkin watches from the screen, and when somebody walks up it sets off the scare. It is also what it has been since 2008: a board of Halloween sounds you tap.

THE WATCHER
The front camera notices a person walking up. The pumpkin opens its eyes and follows them across the screen, and when they are close enough it screams. One visitor, one scare, and you set how close. The picture is looked at on the device and thrown away. Nothing is recorded and nothing is sent anywhere.

A TIMER, A TAP, AND THE BOWL
A dark porch is hard for any camera, so there are other triggers. A timer scares at random moments. A tap makes the whole screen the button, for when you are hiding behind the door. With the Bowl, the device lies among the sweets and a reach into the bowl sets it off, even in complete darkness.

SCENES
A scene chains a few sounds into one scare: a knock, the creaking door, "come here", the scream. The pumpkin waits through the build-up and screams on the last step. The Door is included. Three more come with Pro, and you can build your own from any sounds and your own lines.

THE SHELF
Forty sounds to tap: screams, an evil laugh, a witch's cackle, a wolf, an owl, thunder, a creaking door, chains, a music box, an organ, "Happy Halloween", "Trick or treat", and four ambiences that loop without a seam. Shake for a surprise, as in 2008.

THE GHOST SAYS THEIR NAMES
Type a line, pick the Ghost, the Demon or the Witch, and hear it said: "Hello Emma. I have been waiting." Try it for free. With Pro, keep your lines on the Shelf and let them greet whoever walks up. Your lines and your scenes follow you to your other devices through iCloud.

ON THE NIGHT
Choose a Bluetooth or AirPlay speaker and an ambience, and arm it. You get ten seconds to walk away. It plays with the silent switch on and keeps the screen awake. Hold the screen to stop, and it tells you how many visitors it scared.

FREE, AND PRO
Free: the core sounds, two ambiences, the Watcher with its scream, the timer, the tap, and The Door. iHalloween Pro is one purchase, not a subscription, and works with Family Sharing: every sound and ambience, all the scenes and your own, your choice of scares with something quiet when a visitor is first spotted, the Bowl, and the ghost's voice.

PRIVACY
No data is collected. No account, no ads, no tracking. The camera is used only while the Watcher is on, only on the device. Your lines and scenes sync through your own iCloud, which we cannot see.

### 5/5 — 以前大変お世話になった

*2022-09-13*

ハロウィンの雰囲気を出すBGMとして色んなものを使ってきましたが、ディズニーみたいなエンタメ感あって、これが一番よかった！
思い出してたどり着いたけど、もうサポートしてなくてガッカリ。
復活求む！

### 3/5 — ？

*2014-10-12*

やり方がわからん

### 2/5 — Hate the reminder

*2013-11-11*

Love this app but hate the reminder of how many days till Halloween. It's becoming annoying. I know what day is Halloween. I don't need a reminder telling me all year around how many days till it is.

### 5/5 — The best Halloween app out there!

*2013-11-01*

This app is better than all the other Halloween apps out there. It is the only app that gives you several scary music background themes that play all the time as well as has a great selection of sudden scary noises to push during the "right" moments while the background music is still playing. I love this app and have been using it for the last three to four years. Awesome.

### 5/5 — Great sound board

*2013-10-27*

I use this for a sound board to our haunted trick or treat house.  I plug into my portable speakers, crank the volume and spoke the kids coming to the house. 

I like that there are so many on one screen and I don't have to flip between screens.

### 5/5 — Super

*2013-10-10*

Coole mischbare Sounds das einzigre das es zu verbessern gäbe währe, dass es mehr Sounds geben könnte😄

### 3/5 — Free

*2012-11-01*

So what do you expect. My son loved it and we pressed our fave noises for the trick or treaters.
