Today’s theme for the Halloween challenge is Ghosts. Being a huge horror movie fan, and a huge fan of being scared in general, I love ghosts. But I’m more of a fan of the spooky, demon type ghosts rather than the Casper the Friendly Ghost type of ghost.
I also was inspired by Emma at Manicurity’s manicure. For the first day of the challenge, “inspired by a horror movie”, she did a manicure that was a white and black wispy manicure that was inspired by The Mothman Prophecies. I loved how it looked so I kind of stole her idea and turned it into a demon-type ghost.
How I did this manicure: I painted my nails white, and then took a more sheer black that I have in my collection. I took out the brush out of the bottle and cleaned off the brush as best as I could. Then I gently put the brush to the nail around the nail. On the ring finger I tried to create a head and body (sort of). Then I took a red polish and dotted the eyes and intertwined some red swipes with the black.
Polishes used:
- Julep “Kate” (white)
- Zoya “Raven” (black”
- OPI “Quarter of a Cent Cherry” (red)
What I liked about this manicure is that you don’t need any special tools or skills. Its like nail art for beginners, which I totally am!
What do you guys think? Do you believe in ghosts? Do you like the scary ghosts or the friendly ghosts better?

I love this! This just makes me think of white noise and what kind of images ghost hunting equipment would pick up! I think our minds’ interpretation of an image is much scarier than a uniform ghost that looks exactly like a person!
aww thanks!! i remember that movie white noise and yeah you’re totally right i think that we envision what we’re scared of the most.
Nice!! 🙂
thank you!!
I can see the ghos! Very nice Holly :). I don’t know my aunty have seen some before she died but i think they are there but you need to experience it first
thank you!
I love this! It’s subtle but artistic and spooky I might try this!
aww thanks! i liked the technique i might try it again with other colors, like black and gold, or red and gold around christmas
