What happens in the Ghost Prank video

You are posing for a selfie-style video in a cozy living room with Halloween decorations. A cute, cartoonish white bedsheet ghost with two round eyes slowly floats up behind them; you turn around, jump in mock surprise, then burst out laughing and high-five the friendly ghost. Comedic and family-friendly, not scary.

Best photos for Ghost Prank

  • Use a clear, front-facing photo with good light and the whole face visible.
  • Add a second photo if you want a friend in the video too.
  • Adults only (18+). Use your own photos or get permission from everyone in them. No celebrities.
  • Plain clothes work best: the prompt tells the model to leave out logos and text, so unbranded clothes give the cleanest result.

The exact Ghost Prank prompt

Every Ghost Prank video is made with one of these fixed prompts, picked by the photos you upload. Visitors cannot change them; your photos are the only input. With one photo of both people, the two-photo prompt is used with its subject lines rewritten: the person on the left is the first person and the person on the right is the second.
