Halloween Instagram Caption Prompt
Prompt
Write a short, specific Halloween Instagram caption -- not a generic "Happy Halloween!" line. Base it on [what you're actually doing -- your costume, a specific moment from the night, a reaction to your own photo], and keep it under 150 characters. Avoid the phrases "spooky szn," "creatures of the night," and "boo-tiful" entirely -- find a fresher way to capture the moment.

Group Photo Version
Write a short Instagram caption for a Halloween group photo with friends, based on [something specific about the group’s costumes or the night]. Keep it under 130 characters, casual and a little funny, like something you’d actually text, not a polished marketing caption.
FAQ
Why does the prompt ban specific phrases?
“Spooky szn,” “creatures of the night,” and “boo-tiful” are the phrases nearly every generic Halloween caption reuses. Banning them forces something actually different.
What if my photo is an AI-generated transformation, not a real costume?
That’s exactly what the example is built around — referencing the AI photo directly tends to make for a more original caption than pretending it’s a real costume.
Does this work for TikTok too?
Yes — the same structure works for a TikTok caption, though you can ask for a slightly longer version since TikTok captions typically run a bit longer than Instagram’s.
