What Ghost Wallpaper Is
Ghost wallpaper is a mural of friendly little ghosts, drawn to be cute rather than scary. Round shapes, big eyes, soft colors. Most designs suit a kid's room all year, not just in October.
Giffywalls prints every ghost design to the exact size of your wall, so the pattern lands where you want it. We have shipped these murals to bunk rooms, playrooms and party walls across the country, and the most common ask is for something a small child will not find spooky.
Cute or Spooky? Pick a Lane
This collection splits neatly in two, and choosing the right half matters more than choosing the color.
The cute half is soft and simple. Little white shapes on cream, sage or pale blue. Small smiles. Nothing to worry a three year old. This is the half that works as everyday decor.
The spooky half is bolder. Dark grounds, hollow eyes, drifting figures and moonlit trees. It suits an older kid, a teen den or a room you dress up each fall. Both halves are here, so read the ground color first. That tells you which one you are looking at.
Where It Works
Kids' Bedrooms
Behind the bed is the easy choice. Keep the ground pale and the ghosts small and scattered. Add plain bedding in one flat color. The wall stays playful without taking over the room.
Playrooms and Dens
A playroom can take a busier design. More ghosts, more to spot, more to point at. For a teen den, the darker end of the range works well with black shelves and string lights.
Party Walls and Seasonal Rooms
Some buyers want this for one season only. That is a fine plan. A peel and stick panel behind a table makes a strong backdrop, then comes down in November.
Styles in This Collection
The range is wider than you might expect. There are tiny scattered ghosts on a plain ground. There are big hand-drawn characters. There are full night scenes with a moon, bats and bare trees. For more drawn characters, see our cartoon wallpaper. For the wider seasonal range, browse Halloween wallpaper.
Colors That Work
Ground color does all the heavy lifting here. Cream and oat read warm and gentle. Sage and pale blue feel calm and modern. Blush leans sweet. Charcoal and ink turn the same ghost from friendly to moody in one step.
For the rest of the room, keep it plain. One flat color on the bedding. Natural wood. A simple rug. A drawn wall plus a busy rug is one pattern too many, and the room ends up feeling noisy.
Scale and Placement
Scale sets the whole mood. Small ghosts scattered across a wall read as a pattern, which is calm. One giant ghost reads as a character, which is fun but much louder. Decide which you want before you pick a design.
Send us the width and height of your wall. We scale the art and place the figures so none get cut in half by a door or a corner. Is the wall broken up by a wardrobe? Choose a scattered design over a single big character.
Will They Grow Out of It?
Probably, and that is fine. This is a phase design, so plan for that from the start. Peel and stick costs no more and comes down in an hour. Choose a pale, simple check of a ground and the wall can stay a year or five. Choose a full night scene and expect it to go sooner.
Finish, Fitting and Delivery
Kids' rooms take knocks, so a wipeable finish helps. Pick peel and stick for a removable wallpaper option that lifts off clean when the phase passes. Renting? Take that one too. Paste the wall suits a room staying put. Panels arrive numbered with hanging notes in the box. Shipping is free on every order.

FAQs
Which materials is best for wallpaper?
Wallpapers are made from standard paper, canvas paper, premium paper, peel and stick materials for durability and style.
How Do I Measure My Wall for a Wall Mural?
Measure the wall's width and height, adding 2–4 inches for trimming. Check for obstacles like windows or doors and note their dimensions. Double-check measurements before ordering!
How Do I Order Custom Size Wallpaper or Wall Mural?

Is ghost wallpaper too scary for a kids room?
Not at all. Most designs in this collection are cartoon-style with friendly faces and soft colors, made to read playful rather than frightening. For younger children, choose light backgrounds and smiling motifs; save the moody haunted scenes for teens and seasonal walls.
Can I use this wallpaper just for Halloween and remove it after?
Yes. The peel and stick finish is self-adhesive and lifts off cleanly without damaging paint, so you can put up a dramatic spooky feature wall for October and return to plain walls in November with no patching or repainting.
Is the wallpaper printed to my exact wall size?
Every mural is custom printed to your measurements. Enter your wall's width and height, and we produce one continuous design scaled to fit, so motifs land where you expect and nothing important gets cut off at a corner.
What colors pair well with a spooky feature wall?
Most designs sit on black, white, and gray, which pairs easily with warm wood, cream textiles, and brass. Add orange for classic Halloween warmth, or dusty purple and midnight blue for a moodier, more grown-up scheme.
Which rooms suit this collection best?
Kids bedrooms, playrooms, teen rooms, and basement game rooms are the most popular spots. Seasonal decorators also use these murals for entryway and party feature walls, since peel and stick makes setup and removal quick.
