Trick or treat, by link. They tap a pile of bricks into a glowing jack-o'-lantern, then it turns and the same bricks spell BOO! with their name. Or hide a photo and a short spooky note inside a surprise egg, a scratch card or a sheet of bubble wrap, and send it to a friend, a coworker, or a kid who is too far away to knock on your door on October 31.
Pick a treat below, add a photo (a costume shot works well) and a short note, and send the link in the days before Halloween or on the night itself.

Halloween is the one night the card is allowed to be silly. A photo of the costume, a pun you would never send in July, a 'boo' from the aunt who lives three time zones away: that is enough. The reveal does the rest, because they have to crack, scratch or pop their way to it.
Everything on this page is playful by default and nothing jumps out at them, so it works for kids too. You share the link yourself, by text, WhatsApp or any chat, whenever you like: the week before, or on the night. If you want it to stay closed until Halloween, set an unlock time in the maker and the link shows a countdown until then. The card stays until you delete it; a photo inside is stored for 30 days.
Tap a line to start with it — it lands in the card, ready to edit.
Keep it short and silly: one pun, one wish for a good candy haul, and your name. For kids, add a photo of you in costume. Our Halloween messages guide has 25 lines to start from.
No. The reveals are playful: an egg that cracks, foil they scratch off, bubbles they pop. Nothing jumps out, and nothing plays until they tap. A parent can open it with them from the same link.
Yes. It is a link, so it opens on any phone or tablet with no app or account. Text it to a parent and they can open it together on Halloween.
Not automatically: you share the link yourself. You can seal the card with an unlock time, so even if you send it early it stays locked with a countdown until October 31.
Free to make, send and open, with no signup on either side. The gift and its link stay until the sender deletes it; photos and voice messages are deleted 30 days after creation, and the gift then opens without them.
