Can I plug these into a Smart outlet and setup a routine where a motion sensor is tripped, the lights dim, death metal starts playing, and then 4 of these fire off? Because if so, daddy is going shopping tonight.

Can homeowners insurance read my Lemmy account?

No.

But I propose a safer option.

Smart light for room light

Red flashlights under misters

Fire mister on Smart trigger

Smart speaker

Trigger == motion

Kill lights. Start metal music Flash Red lights Solid Red lights Start misters

When no expense is to be spared... 3D video projectors with motion capture for user feedback.

You can, but it's not quite so trivial. You likely will need a little button pusher, rather than a smart outlet. The plus side is you can use cheaper air fresheners, and get far more impressive fireballs.

That's only a DC5 perception and disarm check for a fireball trap, there are much better options

I mean at that point just get a DMX table and some miniature stage pyros and get it done for real.

Like this kid.

Put them in a circle around the bed for a memorable finishing move/grand finale.

Just don't use any flammable gels, lubricants, or clothing.

Shouldn't be an issue, all children's clothes are flame retardant.

Edit: I apparently got a mod report on this. The joke is that OP is like a teenager (a child), because this probably wouldn't be cool for most typical adults, and children's clothes are flame retardant by law. I'm not saying children were abused in any way, just that OP is doing a childish thing. I hope that's clear.
