Your photo, with something extra

What stays

You, your clothes and the scene. Small details can vary.

What changes

A ghost or mist blended into the photo. Where it appears and how strong it is are chosen for you.

Photos that work best

Photos with some space around you leave room for a ghost. Indoor and night photos look especially eerie. Use a sharp photo; the effect matches its lighting.

Add a spooky effect in 3 steps

Pick a look

Choose a costume, a photoshoot scene or a spooky effect.

Upload your photo

Use a clear, well-lit photo of one person with the face visible.

Create and save

Choose a quality, create your photo, then open it to save.

Choose a photo that suits your idea

Leave room for a ghost

A visible background or open space behind you gives Ghost Behind You somewhere to appear. A tightly cropped face leaves less room.

Prefer a gentler effect?

Choose Ghostly Aura for pale mist and a glow around you, rather than a separate figure in the background.

Use the scene you already like

Indoor and evening photos suit the eerie mood. Your scene carries over, though fine details may vary.

What are AI Halloween photo effects?

They add a ghost or a pale glow to a photo you already have, keeping you and the scene as they are. Small details can change.

How do I add a ghost to my photo?

Upload your photo, pick Ghost Behind You and create. A faint, see-through figure appears in the background, matched to your photo's light and perspective.

Will the effect cover my face?

It's built to stay clear of faces: the ghost sits in the background and the glow stays around you.

Can I use an old photo?

Yes. A sharp, well-lit photo from a past Halloween can work too. Make sure everyone pictured is 18 or older and has agreed to its use.

Can I choose exactly where the ghost appears?

Not exactly. Placement and strength are chosen for you, with no manual controls. A photo with space behind or around you gives the effect more room.

Is it free?

No. Standard photos cost 2 credits, Pro 5 and Ultra 20. Credit packs start at $9.99 and there's no subscription. See pricing

How long does it take?

Usually 1 to 2 minutes. Your photo shows up under Recent as soon as it's ready, and it's saved in your history.
