132 Best Halloween Instagram Captions for Every Costume Picture You Post

Ghosts and goblins and ghouls, oh my! Whether your Halloween costume is scary, funny, or cute, you need to show it off (and make all the other witches jealous). The best way to do that? On Instagram, of course! It doesn't matter if it's a DIY costume you spent hours crafting or a last-minute Halloween costume you bought online at 50 percent off—you're definitely going to want to snap some photos of your spook-tacular 'fit. We suggest posing next to your perfectly painted (or carved) pumpkin with a caramel apple in hand, surrounded by haunting party decorations or taking a picture with your best ghouls in matching costumes. Once you nail the perfect shot, you'll need an equally sinister (or cute or funny) caption to take your post to the next level.

If you used all your creative juices decorating and designing a costume, don't worry. We've done the work for you and have gathered 132 of the best Halloween Instagram captions. Orange you glad you have all these options?! From short and sweet phrases to classic movie quotes to Halloween jokes, these Halloween captions are fang-tastic. Now, just pick your most bewitching photo, choose a caption from this list, and watch the likes add up!
