This unnerving use of Facebook Messenger automation makes it even easier to scare yourself silly every night this October.

3. ScaryBot – Scary Meme Messenger Bot

So you’ve watched all the movies, you’ve been on all the haunted hayrides and through all the haunted houses. You’ve attended parties and decorated your house to it’s appalling potential. But you’re still craving some spine-tingling scares! 

ScaryBot is a unique Facebook chatbot that provides the user with the best Creepypastas on the internet.

If you don’t know what a Creepypasta is, then you’re in for a treat. 

Creepypastas are stories, myths, or images, usually of a terrifying nature, that are copied and pasted throughout the internet – essentially becoming digital legends.

First, you can tell ScaryBot what you’d like to see.

The Halloween chatbot will then bring up a scrolling menu of options for you to choose from. You can choose to view them or save them to your favorites to view at a later time.

Finally, the chilling chatbot will pull up a window right within Messenger so you don’t have to wait for a separate webpage to load, open a different application, or ever leave the chat at all!

4. Escape from Ghost Treasure Mansion – Skype Game Bot

Our fourth Halloween chatbot example is a Skype bot.

Skype actually has a number of chatbots for users to interact with, but this particular Halloween chatbot hosts a peculiar puzzle game that can be completed through chatbot dialogues. 

In Skype, search for the bot in contacts to start the game.

Begin the Escape from Ghost Treasure Mansion game by approaching their late rich uncle’s spooky mansion. The bot provides options to move the game forward.

As the game continues, the user finds a ouija board, which will come in handy later on during some of the puzzles.

That’s when the game really gets started. You find yourself locked in the rickety old mansion and your only option is to move through the puzzles to reach your uncle’s treasure at the end.

The game provides a puzzle and then asks the user to send a picture of the answer. 

It can be difficult to get the Halloween chatbot to recognize the pictures that the user sends, so luckily, there is also an option to type the answer. 

Once the user solves 3 puzzles correctly, they are allowed to claim the treasure.

But if you want to continue on with the grisly game, you may complete the last two puzzles — but only at your own risk!

5. The Digital Ghost – iOS App Bot

The final Halloween chatbot on our list strays slightly from the spooky fun nature of the previous four. 

Now we take a look into some truly spooky tech, and consider the implications of such intriguing inventions and AI.

After Eugenia Kuyda’s closest friend, Roman Mazurenko, died in a car accident, she decided to commemorate him by building an artificially intelligent chatbot.

Halloween Chatbots: Talk to Roman

Using years of text messages and emails as example content to train the AI, the conversational chatbot learned how Roman spoke, and used this knowledge to imitate him to users who wanted to speak to him post-mortem.

Halloween Chatbots: Personified Digital Ghost

The app, named simply after its deceased counterpart, is free to download in the Apple Store. 

Once opened, the chatbot leads the user to form questions and conversational pieces, to which the digital ghost of Roman responds with his opinions, ideas, and sometimes, pictures from his life.

Halloween Chatbots: Favorite memories

Roman Mazurenko’s digital ghost makes us feel a number of emotions that often come with the Halloween season as its macabre themes mix with shortening days and colder weather.  

But the digital ghost of Roman Mazurenko brings up other things as well; particularly the future of chatbots and artificial intelligence. 

Halloween chatbots are festive and fun, but the digital ghost of Roman Mazurenko shows us that these are powerful examples of artificial intelligence. 

AI chatbots have been used for so much already, and there is still so much uncharted territory. 

Halloween Chatbots: Tricks and Treats, or Hair-Raising Robotics?

Chatbots are extremely versatile pieces of technology. 

There are marketing chatbots, ecommerce chatbots, customer support chatbots, chatbots to have fun and play games, and even chatbots to memorialize. 

Chatbots are being utilized more and more by businesses and marketers, but they are also expanding into the world of the day-to-day person.

Anyone can build a chatbot, and for that reason, the uses that we see for these little artificially intelligent bots are ever-expanding.
