Halloween is coming. Make every night until October 31 count. Halloween Countdown turns the wait into the best part of the season. A living countdown, a door to open every night, and everything you need to plan the party. THE COUNTDOWN Watch the days, hours, minutes and seconds fall away on a screen that breathes with candlelight. Pick your scene, from a moonlit graveyard to a witch's kitchen, and let the bats and fog drift while a low soundscape sets the mood. 31 NIGHTS Open one door a night through October. Behind each is something small and good: a spooky fact, a dare, a recipe, a wallpaper to keep. Build a streak and fill your collection shelf. PLAN THE HAUNT Costumes, shopping list, guest list, budget and a party checklist, all in one place. Tick things off as the big night gets closer. IDEAS Costume ideas, party food, decorations, games and safety tips, saved to your favourites in a single tap. THE AI WORKSHOP See yourself in a costume before you buy it. Turn any idea into a printable pumpkin stencil. Spin up a short ghost story to read out loud. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN A widget with tonight's door and the live count, a Live Activity for the final stretch, and a matching Apple Watch app. MADE TO FEEL GOOD Thirty two languages, full support for the largest accessibility text sizes, and a calm mode that settles the animation if you have asked your phone for less motion. PREMIUM Premium unlocks all 31 nights, every scene, unlimited planner entries and the AI workshop.
