With the latest COVID-19 advisory that banned trick-or-treating and indoor haunted house gatherings, the Halloween fervour has switched itself to the digital platform with the spooky ‘Ghost photoshoot’ trend that resembles a lot like the haunted forests walk-through. The spine-tingling trend, although more chucklesome than scary, has taken the internet by storm lately wherein people are draping white sheets to resemble a Halloween ghost and are sharing photos to “spook” others.

The #GhostPhotoshoot hashtag has taken off on Twitter, that said, one scintillating detail in all of the ghostly pictures is the ghosts donning black shades and Ku Klux Klan resembling uniform that has divided the internet. The popular bedsheet ghost costume photoshoot features solitary or a few ghosts in groups posing for the annual holiday, attempting to pose in blood-curdling looks.

In one of the photos, a single ghost can be seen patting down on a mountainous landscape with a sunflower. In others, two or three are seen meandering on the streets in spots of dim lights. Some were even located sitting in the dark corners of the road “legs up”. Donning their orange hats in white bedsheet attires, a Halloween ghost couple photographed holding hands and one resting on a park bench while the other attempted at frightening postures.
