Hue Halloween for Philips Hue

Hue Halloween triggers coordinated sound and lighting effects through supported Philips Hue equipment.

Our take

Choose for a deliberate themed lighting setup.

Large effect buttons and an optional motion sensor provide manual or supported automatic triggering.

Keep in mind: Compatible Hue control hardware and at least one bulb are required; abrupt light and sound effects may be unsuitable for some participants.
