BOO! 31 Halloween Quotes & 13 FREE Photos to Make Your Own Memes
Looking for spooky Halloween quotes?
Want to thrill and chill your friends and followers this haunting season?
Everything you need is right here!
I’ve curated a collection of short quotes that are just the right length for making quote graphics.
AND I’ve selected 13 spooky backgrounds that are equally suitable! Only professional photography – no cheesy clip art stuff. I’ve used my “designer’s eye” to collect only Halloween photos that offer plenty of space to overlay text. Nothing too busy or contrasty.
Then I cropped them into high resolution, 1200 pixel squares – perfect for Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, and all the rest of your favorite platforms.
All ready for you to add your text!
The quotes are typed out right in this post for you to copy and paste. The photos are in my membership area, available to both paid and free members of my site.
If you’ve purchased or downloaded from me in the past year, you should already have a log in.

What About Halloween Fonts?
There are a lot of kooky, crazy fonts that are fun for Halloween. Beware! Using a decorative font for more than a couple words may make your meme hard to read. And with the amount of content people are scrolling by in their newsfeeds, they just may pass yours up if it’s unreadable.
That said – I found a site where you can download creepy free Halloween fonts! Click here.
You can check out my quote graphic samples for type inspiration. See them all on the infographic at the end of the post – be sure to pin it!
How to Make Your Fonts Stand Out
- I recommend white type as the most readable.
- If your design app offers the option, add a shadow for more “pop.”
- You can use a light colored font where the background is dark enough.
- Use a different and/or smaller font for the author name.
- Don’t forget to add your URL! This should be the most subtle element.
