As we approach Halloween, many people will be turning to their Alexa devices for spooky sounds and Halloween themed activities.
So if you are looking for Alexa Halloween apps then we have collected some of our favourites below to try out.
2022 New Addition: Halloween Hotel
An advent calendar for Halloween. Open the Halloween Hotel skill each day in the build up to October 31st and reveal a variety of spooky themed fun.
This is a branded experience created by the team at Fruit-tella.
Trick the Witch — Halloween Greeter
This skill enables you to turn your Amazon Echo device into an automated greeter for anyone visiting your house!
Just place the device at your front door, and Lamona the witch will entertain any trick or treaters.
It’s a great innovative use of Alexa for Halloween, and you can see a demo of how it works in the video below.
Spooky Halloween Sounds
This is a simple one, but handy for background noise if you are doing Halloween related activities in the home. Or you could place an Amazon Echo speaker outside to welcome guests with a haunted house atmosphere.
Spooky Halloween Sounds plays a continuous loop of scary, spooky, and frightening sounds, until you tell it to stop.
Scary Monster
This is a great one for scaring people with!
Each time you open this skill you will hear a different, TERRIFYING, monster!
To get the maximum effect you could use it as part of a “routine” so that it automatically activates after dark when someone else in the house is least expecting it…
Halloween Music
Get in the Halloween spirit with this great collection of spooky tunes to play in the background. You get to choose from a fun list of tracks, or can just let Alexa choose a random Halloween song for you.
Some of the options available are Pumpkin Dance, Dancing Skeletons, Scary Jingle Bells, and Vampire Party!
Just say “open Halloween Music” for the full list.
Halloween Jokes
You can’t beat a bit of spooky themed humour. Many of the Halloween jokes here are reminiscent of Christmas Cracker style puns with a ghoulish theme.
Some fun ones for the kids, as well as to elicit the odd groan from the adults. Plenty here to keep everyone amused for a while.

Last Minute Halloween Costume
Here is one for those of you who forgot to prepare in advance for your Halloween party or trick-or-treating outing.
Alexa will ask you a few questions and try to recommend a suitable outfit based on your personality and items that you should have available at home.
Ten Minutes of Terror
Prepare for something extra spooky here. A selection of stories taken from old radio shows and indie short story writers.
Not recommended for younger users, but if you are looking for a scary story from your Alexa device then this is worth checking out.
Halloween Ambience
An alternative to Spooky Halloween Sounds, that again uses your Amazon Alexa device to create a creepy Halloween atmosphere.
You will get a solid hour of creaking doors, howling winds, dripping water, eerie scraping, screeching cats, cackling witches, cawing crows, and much more!
