As Halloween approaches, now is a great time to decorate your social media with cute Halloween Facebook covers.
I have tried many seasonal updates over the years, and if there is one thing I have learned, it is that it can be hard to stay in style while keeping things useful.
However, I have found a method that consistently works for me.
This is a simple way to get into the holiday spirit and improve your social media pages.
When I changed my cover photo to something that aligns with the approaching holiday, it made a big difference—there were more likes, comments, and excitement.
There – I shared my big secret!
Let’s go ahead and give you some great ideas for Halloween, plus how you can create your very own with Canva!

Look for cute Halloween pictures like pumpkins, friendly ghosts, or black cats by clicking on “Elements” and searching ‘Halloween”. You can filter these by Graphics, Photos, Videos and more – though my personal fave is Photos.
Halloween Character Ideas:
- Smiling pumpkins with big, friendly eyes
- Hug-friendly ghosts instead of scary ones
- Mischievous little bats with tiny fangs
- Friendly black cats with big, curious eyes
- Departed Soul
- Black cat
- Scary ghost
C. Personalize the Text
Add a fun Halloween phrase like “Too Cute to Spook!” or “Roar, roar your Boat” You can customize the font style, color, and size to match your design.
Fun Phrases To Use
Example:
- “Hoot Hoot”
- “Happy Haunting”
- “Too Cute to Spook!”
- “Fangs for the Memories!”
- “Creep It Real!”
