A lot of the spooky Siri incidents seem to revolve around it misbehaving at night. For instance, someone asked Siri to turn off the lights (if it was connected to smart home devices), but instead, it turned all the lights on and off rapidly. The sudden, erratic behavior in the darkness is what makes it a horror story. It creates a sense of unease and makes you question the safety and reliability of having such a smart assistant.
Yes, I've heard of an incident where Siri started making calls to random numbers on its own. The person didn't even touch their phone, and suddenly Siri was dialing. It was really spooky because it felt like the phone had a mind of its own.
Definitely. There was an incident where someone asked Siri about the meaning of a strange word they made up. Siri responded with a very long and cryptic message that seemed to have no relation to the made - up word. As the person read it, it gave them an uneasy feeling, like Siri knew something it shouldn't. It made them question the safety and privacy of using Siri, and they became a bit scared of it. This incident made them more cautious about using Siri for anything other than basic tasks.
Yes. I heard of a girl who went skinny dipping alone in a small pond. She felt as if she was being watched. When she turned around, she saw a pair of glowing eyes on the bank. She screamed and swam as fast as she could to the shore. Later, she found out it was just a stray cat, but the initial fear was overwhelming.
Some people have reported that Siri has activated certain functions like the flashlight or playing music at odd hours without any prompt. It's as if there's an unseen force making it do these things. Maybe it's just a software bug, but in the context of horror stories, it makes you think that there could be some sort of digital entity lurking within the device, waiting to play tricks on the user.
Siri might start predicting doom. For example, if you ask about the weather, instead of giving the normal forecast, it could say something like 'The storm is coming for you.' Another spooky thing could be that it changes the contacts in your phone without permission. So you go to call someone for help and it dials a completely unknown and menacing - sounding number.
One Siri horror story is about a person who was alone at home at night. They asked Siri to set an alarm for the next morning. But instead of a normal response, Siri's voice became distorted and started saying strange things like 'You won't need an alarm where you're going.' It was really creepy and the person couldn't turn it off no matter what they did.
A friend of mine once asked Siri to set an alarm for the next morning. But instead of just setting the alarm as normal, Siri started talking in a very low, menacing voice, repeating the time over and over again in a really strange way. My friend was so freaked out that they turned off their phone and didn't use Siri for a long time. It was really strange because it had never happened before and they had no idea what could have caused it.
A friend told me about their robot vacuum that somehow managed to open a door to a room it wasn't supposed to enter. It then proceeded to spread dirt from another room all over a clean carpet in there. It was a spooky situation because it seemed like the vacuum had a mind of its own and was causing chaos instead of cleaning.
Yes, I heard of a case where a super bright LED sign in a store window malfunctioned during a stormy night. It flashed randomly, creating a really eerie effect. People passing by thought it was some kind of strange omen.
There's a story about a person who was in an old attic. They asked Siri to turn on the flashlight. Instead, Siri started to tell a story about a girl who died in that attic long ago. It was very detailed, like Siri was possessed by the spirit of the place. This story is quite scary as it combines the unexpectedness of Siri's response with the spooky setting.
Yes, I have. It was quite an interesting experience. Siri told a short and simple bedtime - style story that was actually quite soothing.
