The social media site announced the reactions Thursday along with a mask feature in Facebook live.

"We're launching a set of limited-edition Halloween reactions that turn the Like, Love, Haha, Wow, Sad and Angry reactions into Halloween-themed symbols that come to life when you tap on them," a blog post from Facebook said.

The like and love reactions remain the same, but the haha reaction becomes a cackling witch, the wow reaction becomes a ghost, the sad reaction becomes Frankenstein's monster, and the angry reaction becomes a sinister-looking pumpkin.

Masks on Facebook live are similar to Snapchat filters. Users broadcasting a live Facebook video can tap a magic wand icon and select a mask to digitally cover their face.

The masks are a new feature for Facebook Live, but Halloween-themed ones -- a pumpkin and a witch -- will only be available for the holiday.
