Personalized Halloween video greetings

Halloween is October 31, and it's the most playful holiday of the year — which makes it perfect for animated, personalized video cards. eCardToon Halloween greetings will star friendly (mostly) spooky characters who call out the recipient's name and deliver your message with a little theatrical flair.

Picture a pumpkin that comes to life to announce that 'Liam is the bravest trick-or-treater on the block', or a vampire who 'vants' to wish your friend a happy Halloween in his best accent. Messages can be silly, sweet, or a tiny bit scary — perfect for kids, grandkids, classmates and friends who love the season.

Need inspiration? Let the character reveal the costume your grandchild has been planning for weeks, warn a friend that the candy bowl is already suspiciously empty, or challenge your siblings to a pumpkin-carving contest. Teachers can wish a whole class a happy Halloween, and horror-movie fans will appreciate a mock-dramatic 'you have been summoned' message for movie night. Parents can use a card as a reveal for a family tradition, such as the annual haunted-house visit or the first year a little one gets to go trick-or-treating with the big kids. Coworkers can trade a spooky-fun greeting before the office costume contest, and long-distance friends can relive a legendary costume from years past.

Halloween cards also work as invitations to costume parties, as a fun way for grandparents to join in from afar, or as a treat for someone who can't go trick-or-treating this year. They're ready in minutes, so even a last-minute idea on the 31st is on time. Many families watch the card together before heading out in costume, then keep the downloaded video with the year's photos.

We'll keep everything family-friendly, and as always you'll see the full script before checkout. Your card arrives by email with a private link and a downloadable video in phone and widescreen versions.
