Halloween Drawing Ideas Aesthetic

1. Spooky Ghost Picnic

So a picnic is what we all do at the peak of spring and summer. It’s sunny, peaceful, and fun. But what if it was an eerie picnic with ghost friends? Then that would be very spooky and perfect to draw.

So if you’re struggling to visualize, here are some more Halloween ghost drawing ideas:

• An oblivious guy picnicking with sinister ghosts or his dead friends
• A cute friendly ghost picnic
• A Day of the Dead family picnic

2. Halloween Costumes (In Your Style)

So Halloween is the perfect time to draw costumes. You can do just the clothes, your favorite character in a costume, or even a funny thirst trap.

So if I were to draw this prompt, I’d put a popular or buff character in something cute. But you can also try drawing a cute character in a Horror costume.

For example, a cute cat in an Edward Scissor Hands costume. Or even a Grim Reaper costume.

3. Hot Vampire (Any Gender)

So you really can’t get more aesthetic than a hot vampire. It’s a Halloween staple. But I think a fun twist is a vampire self-portrait in your style or a gender alternative of the same vampire.

So for instance, draw Edward Cullen but as a girl. Don’t forget to add spooky Halloween elements too.

P.S. Here are some cute & easy Spooky drawing tutorials that’ll help your Spooktober pop off like it should:

4. Cottagecore Haunted House

So take a Haunted House and make it aesthetic. You can repeat this with fairy grunge, Y2K, and any other aesthetic you’d like. But this idea is about cottagecore.

So you can draw a Haunted House with cottagecore bunny actors or visitors, or just focus on the Haunted House architecture.

5. Halloween Characters (In Your Style)

So this means draw a character like Jack Skellington in your style. It’s a basic idea but I know everyone eats up “in your style” drawings of popular characters.

So here are some other character ideas:

• Chucky
• Frankenstein
• Pennywise

6. Spooky Gay Mermaids

So now, is it Halloween without spooky gay mermaids to scare hom*ophobic people? I don’t think so. So let’s draw them.

So this idea can be literal – realistic Grimm Fairy Tale kind of scary mermaids pulling you into a deep abyss.

But you can also draw gay mermaids minding their business and a hom*ophobic Karen screaming in the distance. It’s your choice <3.

7. Candy Corn Field

So it’s Halloween. Some kid is going crazy trick or treating and they gorged themselves on candy corn. Let’s draw it.

It can be a candy corn fever dream, a candy corn mountain, or just a cute kid eating candy corn.

8. Forbidden Cereal (But Make it Horror)

So this can be like Hotel Transylvanian dinner table of weird spooky foods. Or it can be cereal that gained sentience and is about to be helplessly eaten. But it depends on how crazy you’re feeling.

9. Scarecrow Lover

So taking a break from the horror, here’s a pair of scarecrow lovers! You can draw this against a plain background or in a spooky field.

Now it may not be forbidden cereal but these drawing tutorials are equally as Spooky and cute!

10. Halloween Corn Maze Landscape

So you’re a lone sane person in a group of crazy people that want to test fate by going in a Halloween corn maze. It’s dark, dreary, and now you’re being dragged by the ankle, face down through the maze.

End scene. So what does that scene or landscape look like?

11. Spooky Sanrio

So for a cute remix, draw your favorite Sanrio character in Halloween colors. Or draw them in a spooky cute style.

Halloween Drawing Ideas Anime

12. Studio Ghibli Spooky Background

13. Naruto x Sasuke Couple’s Costume (Your Style)

It’s absolutely canon that Naruto and Sasuke are in love. So draw them in a couple’s costume! You can draw them posing together, getting ready, or out trick or treating.

But you can also draw any other anime couple pairing you’d like to.

14. Toji in a Maid Costume

So take on Tik Tok trend, Toji thirst traps and mash it with another, maid costumes. And you get popular content.

But draw whoever you’re dying to put in a maid costume and run to the comments to link me to it because I need to see that.

15. Ghost Totoro (Studio Ghibli)

So this is Totoro in a ghost costume or honestly, just as a ghost. That’s it. That’s the prompt.

16. Gojo in a Sailor Moon Costume

So this prompt is also self-explanatory. Draw Gojo in a silly pose and wear a super “feminine” Halloween costume.

17. Anime Character’s Halloween Room Décor Scene

So you’re playing a Lo-Fi playlist and you see an anime character chilling in their room. But it’s Halloween and there’s ghost, spiderweb, and other Halloween décor up.

Halloween Drawing Ideas Cute

21. A Wonky Pumpkin Carriage

So you’re the bell of the ball. You’re in your Cinderella era riding a pumpkin carriage. But no one focuses on the carriage doing the most to ride away from the Prince. So let’s represent the unseen heroes.

Draw the carriage with attitude that it’s working long hours unpaid or worried it’s not doing a good job.
