Tesla in Halloween mode: the car's lights flash and it emits scary sounds when someone approaches

Tesla has introduced a seasonal 'Halloween Mode' for its vehicles as part of the 2026.38.3 software update. Available starting in October, this temporary feature allows owners to modify their car's digital interface and exterior behavior.

The update enables specific aesthetic and auditory changes, including the ability for the vehicle to flash its lights and emit horror-themed sound effects when individuals approach the car. These features are designed as a limited-time entertainment function for the holiday period.
