In this article
Short answer: open the Halloween AI Video studio, upload one clear selfie, and press Generate. The AI puts you in gothic skeleton makeup or an instant vampire costume, dancing under the moonlight with jack-o-lanterns. You get a 10-second vertical MP4 with spooky swing music. No prompt to write, no costume to buy.
What you upload and what you get
| You provide | You receive |
|---|---|
| 1 clear, front-facing selfie of one person | A 10-second MP4, 9:16 vertical |
| Your choice of resolution: 480p, 720p or 1080p | You perform a skeleton swing dance or instant costume reveal under the moonlight with glowing jack-o-lanterns |
| Nothing else: no prompt, no reference video, no editing | Audio already mixed into the file, no watermark |
What happens in the video
- The start: you appear on a spooky balcony or candlelit porch with glowing carved pumpkins.
- The reveal: gothic skeleton face paint, a tailored velvet suit or vampire cape appears seamlessly.
- The dance: you perform the viral swing dance, bobbing and swaying smoothly to the beat.
- The ending: you pose with a sly grin as candlelight flickers across the scene.
Choosing the right photo
- One person: just you in the frame so the AI focuses on your facial identity.
- Framing: waist-up or full-body works best for the dance movement.
- Face: look straight at the camera without masks or sunglasses.
- Lighting: clear, even light for crisp costume rendering.
How to make it in 3 steps

FAQ
Do I need a costume before taking the photo?
No. A regular everyday selfie works — the AI applies the complete costume, makeup and scene.
Does the video include music?
Yes. The spooky swing beat is already mixed into the exported clip and synced to the dance steps.
Is Halloween AI Video for one person or two?
One. Upload 1 clear, front-facing photo with a single person in frame. Group photos are not supported.
Can I use a photo of my pet?
This template is built around a human performer, so we recommend a photo of a person. Pet photos are not supported for this scene; templates such as Flying Tesla Roadster, Baby Knight and Spooky Scary Skeletons are made for pets.
Does the exported video include the original sound?
Yes. The original scene audio is precisely synchronized in every downloaded MP4, so you do not need to add or align the soundtrack in an editor.
How long is the video and what resolution do I get?
Every video from this template is 10 seconds, 9:16 vertical, as a watermark-free MP4. Choose 480p (25 credits), 720p (50 credits) or 1080p (100 credits). The Single covers up to 720p; the Creator or Studio unlocks 1080p.
What happens to my credits if the video fails?
If a generation fails, times out or is blocked by a safety check, the credits for that job return to your balance automatically (25, 50 or 100 by resolution). The video page shows the job status and whether the credits were returned.
What if I'm not happy with the result?
Credits come back automatically only when a generation fails; a completed video uses its credits. Results depend on photo clarity and lighting, so a sharp, front-facing, well-lit photo works best, and the studio shows a free framing preview before you spend credits. If a finished video has a serious technical problem, such as a broken file or missing audio, email support@trendswap.app with the video reference. Duplicate charges and purchases that never reached your account are handled under our refund policy.
How long are my photos and videos kept, and how do I delete them?
Your uploaded photo and finished videos stay in your account until you delete them; nothing expires automatically. Delete a video in My videos (/videos): this permanently removes the video file and the photo it was made from. You can remove an unused photo in the studio. To erase your whole account, email support@trendswap.app with the subject "Privacy Request". We do not use your photos or videos to train public AI models.
