Halloween season is (almost) upon us and that means that it’s getting dark earlier and everyone is dressing up and doing really creepy things to mark the occasion, but I don’t think that anyone is going to top this video of a malfunctioning dental school robot as the most disturbing thing you’ll see this year.

I never even knew that dental school’s utilised robots or that they were so lifelike and there isn’t any information about it either – just the video below that a guy called Daniel decided to post on his Twitter account and give us nightmares for weeks about: Have a look at it below if you feel like you’re up to the task:

This malfunctioning dental school robot is quite possibly one of the scariest things I’ve ever seen. pic.twitter.com/dLh9Wx3yds

Jesus. That really is creepy isn’t it, it’s like if someone was possessed by a demon a la ‘The Exorcist’ but it’s actually a lifelike human robot that’s being possessed and the fact that it’s a robot means that its face can contort into all manner of bizarre combinations. Kinda looks like what I would imagine a robot having an ecstasy meltdown would look like but even more horrific.

Hopefully they managed to get this under control and this doesn’t happen ever again. Dread to think what it would look like if this happened to more than one of those robots or they actually did get possessed by demons. Maybe they should just get rid of dental robots period. Think that’s probably the safest option here.
