Dot to Dot. With 85 minutes of a demo show. For everyone who's simply Dotty and Dot, Alexa. So, wait a while after you've started it and then scare the living daylights out of somebody with some creepy sound effect or other, which is repeated every 20 seconds or so, you'll see.
Alexa, open paranormal prank. Choose the type of prank. Door, window, baby, iPhone, or grand piano. Door.
When do you want me to start? Say a time between 10 seconds and 10 hours. 10 seconds. Okay, I will start the prank in 10 seconds.
Okay, so it said 10 seconds to 10 hours, so, you know, you could set this for quite some time later when other people in the house went to where... Ooh. Went to where that you'd done it, and just this sound would come out of nowhere. Now, it said in the skill description that it will repeat it every, I think it said 20 seconds or so.
So, yeah. So, this has already freaked somebody out when, out of the blue, in the middle of the night or something, someone knocks at the door, and then they think, what's that? Oh my goodness, this is really scary. Now, one other thing it said in the skill description was that you can say, A-Lady, screen off.
So, if you're doing this on Echo with a Screen Echo Show, then it will blanket, which makes it even more spooky or unexpected when, out of the blue, something alarming happens. Ooh. It's different each time, isn't it? Let's try another one.
There was Baby, wasn't there? Let's try that. Um, Alexa, ask Paranormal Prank for Baby. When do you want me to start?
Say a time between 10 seconds and 10 hours. 10 seconds. Okay, I will start the prank in 10 seconds. Let's see if it's a creepy baby or just an unexpected baby.
I wonder. It'll be pretty... Ah! Oh, no.
It's a happy baby. Not a creepy baby. But still, out of nowhere, that would be quite disconcerting. What's that?
Particularly if I had a baby in the house. Let's try another one. I mean, let's wait for another one. Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. I don't think it's supposed to be creepy per se. Okay. I think it's just...
Uh... Well, that's a long time. Before... Oh!
Oh, okay. Wow, that was a... Okay, let's try, um, iPhone. So, ask Paranormal Prank for iPhone.
When do you want me to start? Say a time between 10 seconds and 10 hours. 10 seconds. Okay, I will start the prank in 10 seconds.
So, there's nothing creepy about this one, is there? It's just that people will think their phone's going off, and they'll go looking for it, maybe? Not thinking that the echo is the culprit. Oh!
Oh, that was a notification. So, yeah, you're pranking people about... Oh, where's my phone? What was that notification?
What's going on? Let's see what the next one is. All the samples have been different so far, haven't they? I guess they'll repeat after a while.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. We'll call you a day after this one. You'll be glad to hear. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Okay, we'll leave it there.
If we get another one while I'm wrapping up, then fab. This is Robin signing off. Do check out The Echo Show. It's so much fun.
It really is good. That's just searching for The Echo Show in your podcaster of choice, or ask the A-lady to play The Echo Show on Amazon Podcasts, or you can say on Apple Podcasts, I guess, as well. It's everywhere. This is Robin signing off.
Just trying to see. And we'll speak again tomorrow. Nice. Feedback, comments, demos.
