You can film the Halloween dance trend yourself in three steps, below. Or skip filming: vtrends puts you into one of these videos from one photo of your face, paid with credits from $19, ready in about 15 to 25 minutes.

How to film the Halloween dance trend

Study the format. Open the trend’s sound on TikTok and watch the top few videos to see the timing.
Set up the shot. Prop the phone at chest height in good, even light, with your face clearly visible.
Film and cut to the sound. Record a few takes, keep the best and line it up with the trend’s sound.
Avoid this. Waiting too long. Most trends peak within a week or two.

Don’t want to film it?

Pick any video below, add one photo of your face, and get the same video with you in it, original sound included. Credits from $19, no subscription, and the credits come back if it fails.

Questions

What is the Halloween dance trend?

A short spooky dance in full costume and make-up, timed to a Halloween song such as Thriller or Spooky Scary Skeletons. It is one of the formats people are copying on TikTok right now; the examples above have 1.1m views between them.

Can I do the Halloween dance trend without filming it?

Yes. Pick one of the examples, upload a clear photo of your face, and vtrends renders the same video with you in it. Outfit and location photos are optional. Your video renders after you spend the credits.

How much does it cost?

Setting it up is free. You pay with credits: one credit is one second of finished video, packs start at $9 for 15 credits, and credits never expire. No subscription.

Will it look exactly like me?

It works best with a sharp, front-facing photo in good light. Fast spins, faces turned away and heavy face paint are harder, and the result can look less like you in those moments. If a render clearly doesn’t show you, we rerun or refund it.

Are these the original videos?

Yes. They are public TikTok posts, credited and linked to each creator. Your version is a new video generated with your face; the original creator’s video is not changed.
