Do my solo ghost shootWhat the ghost photoshoot trend is
The ghost photoshoot trend is the October TikTok and Instagram trend where people drape a plain white bedsheet over their heads, put a pair of sunglasses on top and pose somewhere ordinary: a leafy path, a pumpkin patch, a parking lot, the office. It took off under #GhostPhotoshoot in the fall of 2020, set to Jack Stauber's 2017 song "Oh Klahoma", and it comes back every Halloween with friends, kids, coworkers and pets under the sheets.
Here the ghost photoshoot trend clip is made from your photo alone: the sheet going on, the sunglasses, the autumn spots and the poses are written into the prompt, so you skip the sheet with eye holes and the hour in the leaves. Keep the friends version, or tap the dogs, the tiny pet or the walk through the ruins.
Want a ghost that scares instead of poses? The ghost filter prank puts one behind them in their own kitchen, and the AI Halloween photo trend gives you the 90s-film Halloween portrait from the same photo.

What the generator is doing
Your photo goes into Seedance 2.0 Mini as the person or pet to keep, so the face, hair or fur and clothes carry over to the peek at the end, and the prompt builds the sheet, the sunglasses and the autumn poses around them, with shutter clicks in the audio. Your 12-second clip is paid in credits, priced on the Generate button before anything runs.
The crew in sunglasses
Three sheet ghosts in black shades, posed shoulder to shoulder against a fence full of autumn leaves.
The dog version
Ears through the holes, tongue out, sitting on a hay bale with pumpkins all around.
How to do the ghost photoshoot trend
Upload a photo in your phone's browser and your clip is ready in a few minutes, with no sheet, no scissors and no app to install.
Upload one clear photo
Pick a photo of you, your friends, your dog or your cat with faces toward the camera and good light. A group photo works: everyone in it gets a sheet.
Keep the friends shoot, or tap another
The default puts you in the autumn leaves with the shades on. Tap the dogs, the tiny pet or the ruins walk, or press Random for an office or cemetery shoot.
Add the sound and post
Your clip comes back vertical with the shutter clicks in it. In TikTok or Reels, pick "Oh Klahoma" or any ghost photoshoot sound and post it before Halloween.
Who to put in your ghost photoshoot
The ghost photoshoot is funnier the less likely the ghost. Make it while everyone is still posting theirs.
Your besties
One group photo and the whole friend group gets sheets and matching shades, no one has to bring a bedsheet.
Your dog
The dog that runs off with the sheet finally sits still for it, ears out, in the pumpkin patch.
The office
The team photo becomes a row of ghosts at their desks, answering the phone in sunglasses.
Your cat
A cat that would never tolerate a sheet, wearing one anyway, staring into the lens.
Ghost photoshoot trend FAQ
What the trend is, which song it uses, and how the clip gets made from one photo.
A ghost photoshoot is a set of photos or a short clip of people, or pets, wearing a plain white bedsheet as a ghost costume, usually with sunglasses on top, posed in an everyday place like a leafy path or a pumpkin patch. It became a TikTok trend in fall 2020 and comes back every October.
The ghost photoshoot trend song is "Oh Klahoma" by Jack Stauber, from 2017. Your clip does not include the song: it comes with shutter clicks and a soft tune instead, so pick "Oh Klahoma" or another ghost photoshoot sound in TikTok or Reels when you post.
Yes. Upload one photo of your dog and the clip puts the sheet on for you, with the ears and snout poking out through holes, sitting among the pumpkins. No sheet to chase, no treats to bribe a pose.
The real way: a white flat sheet with eye holes cut out or a pair of sunglasses on top, an autumn spot, and a friend shooting on a phone while you hold still in a few poses. The one-photo way: upload a photo above and the sheet, the sunglasses, the spot and the poses are made into a 12-second vertical clip.
Yes. Upload one photo with all of you in it and every person gets a sheet and sunglasses, then the clip ends with the sheets lifting so your faces show. From a solo photo, two more sheet ghosts join you.
This page turns you into the sheet ghost. To add a creepy ghost standing behind someone in their own photo, use the ghost filter prank instead.
No. A 12-second clip is paid in credits, and the Generate button shows the price before anything runs. Confirm it and the sheet goes on.
