Halloween jump scare courtesy of SmartThings

Put together a little stealth jump scare for trick or treaters using SmartThings. Our neighborhood is crazy for Halloween, multiple families have “haunted houses” set up and lots of people from our town drop their kids off here to trick or treat. So I wanted to do something inexpensive but fun and under the radar. Our house looked totally normal until you ring the doorbell :slight_smile:

We have some pretty funny clips from our security cameras but since kids are involved I won’t post them until I double check the legality.

The description on the YouTube video has the details.
