One of my absolute favorite parts of ~spooky season~ is finding cute spooky nails to try. Halloween nails are so much fun to do.

I’ve seen some insanely good spooky nail ideas this year that would be amazing to do during spooky season. Here are some of the cutest ideas you should definitely consider copying this year!

1. Blood Drip Nails

This nail design is popular for Halloween every year. It’s a staple when it comes to spooky nail art– you really can’t go wrong with it! Also if you’re like me and are super into red nails, this would be perfect.

2. Spider Web Nails

The color scheme of these nails is so cute and reminds me of the Addams family. This is a really cute and simple design you could do for some spooky Halloween nails!

3. Halloween Nail Designs

You could also do different Halloween themed designs on each finger. The Frankenstein-ish nail design with the stitches is so clever!

4. Red Velvet Web Nails

I am OBSESSED with these and I might have to recreate them for Halloween myself. I think she used cat eye polish to get the velvet effect.

5. Cherry Ghost Face Nails

If you’re a Scream fan, these nails would be so cute to do. I love how they made the ghostface design into little cherries. So creative!

6. Coraline Nails

If you’re like me and are a huge fan of Coraline, these nails would be so good to do for Halloween.

7. Ghost Nail Art

This nail design is more cute than it is spooky, but I still think it counts! I also love the red velvet french tips.

8. Murder Nail Design

These are perfect if you want to do some ACTUAL spooky nails. The drip design she did with the letters is so good.

9. Pink Stitch Nails

I think these might be based off of Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas, but the colors don’t exactly match with Sally so I’m not entirely sure. We could also call them pink Frankenstein nails.

10. Scream Nails

This is another design that would be really good if you’re wanting to do nails based on Scream! The blood drip design with the black background looks amazing.

11. Eye And Snake Nails

This is one of the most unique ideas I’ve seen for spooky nails! The orange and black color combo screams Halloween.

12. Bat Nail Design

These would be so cute if you want to go with something a little more simple! These would also be perfect for anyone who loves pastels because of the lilac color.

13. Black Cat Nails

This is another nail design that would probably lean more cutesy than spooky, but we can pretend black cats are spooky!

14. Clown Nails

This might be my favorite spooky nail design I’ve ever seen. It is so clever and well executed! These are the perfect combination of pretty and spooky.

15. White Ghost Design

If you’re someone who prefers to do neutral colored nails, this ghost design would be the perfect way to celebrate Halloween without going too over the top.

16. Black Smoke Nail Art

These nails are SO cool. I think they might have used blooming gel to achieve this design!

17. Soot Sprite Nails

I don’t know that soot sprites really qualify as spooky, but these would be really cute to do for spooky season if you’re a Studio Ghibli fan.

18. Black And Red Velvet Nails

If you’re wanting to do something more subtle, or if you’re wanting to be like a vampire in a dark romance, these nails would be perfect. I am so obsessed with these. If you’re wanting to recreate these on yourself, you’ll wanna use some burgundy cat eye nail polish like this.

19. Barbed Wire Nails

A barbed wire design like this would be so good and unique for Halloween nails! These really remind me of Silent Hill.

If you’re trying to figure out what colors to do for your Halloween nails, white and purple would be the perfect color combo. These nails look so cute!
