Halloween is one of my family’s favorite holidays, a sentiment clearly shared by somebody at Rivian. Every October, owners of its electric trucks and SUVs can activate Halloween Mode, which changes the exterior lights, sounds and graphics on the infotainment display to match the spookiest season. It’s pretty fun.

This year, Halloween Mode on the R1S, R1T and R2 EVs has become a Ghostbusters–themed experience that Rivian says changes each of its EVs “into a ghost-hunting machine.” The over-the-air update adds lights and sounds, easter eggs and hidden clues in the digital infotainment system, a tie-in with the Rivian Assistant voice control system, and an arcade-style Halloween game that can be played while parked.

The update, developed in collaboration with Sony Pictures, is available now and runs through Nov. 2.
