What is the Ghostface AI trend?
Ghostface AI recreates the moody 90s portrait people have been posting. You sit in a dim room lit by a single lamp, with cool tones and soft film grain, like an old snapshot pulled from a shoebox. Then a shadowy hooded figure, robed in black and wearing a plain pale mask, slowly appears behind you and leans over your shoulder.
The appeal is the slow build. The first seconds look like a nostalgic photo shoot, and the figure creeps in while the sound does the work, so viewers spot it a beat before the scene lets on. It’s spooky without any gore, which is why people who never post horror still make one.
The 8-second vertical clip is made for TikTok and also fits Reels, Shorts and Stories. Post it as your Halloween profile video, an October mood post, or a reply to friends who made theirs. A calm, neutral selfie works especially well here: the quieter you look, the more unsettling the visitor feels.

Where Ghostface AI started
The AI Ghostface trend began in late September 2025. The earliest known example is an Instagram post from September 25, 2025: a Google Gemini image of a Y2K-style bedroom with Ghostface from Scream standing in the doorway, shared with its prompt. It spread on TikTok and Instagram Reels within days, usually set to a remix of “Deceptacon” by Le Tigre, and soon turned into parodies of Ghostface doing everyday things.
Since September 2025

Ghostface AI questions
The short answers. Ask a person or visit the help center.
Is it scary or gory?
It’s moody, not gory. A hooded figure in a pale mask appears behind you and leans over your shoulder. There’s no blood and no violence.
Can I add a friend or partner?
Not in this one. Ghostface AI uses one photo of just you. The hooded figure is the only other presence in the scene.
Does my photo need a dark background?
No. Any clear, front-facing photo works. The dim room, the lamp, the film grain and the cool tones are all added.
Is Ghostface AI free?
Not free, but you can try Reelfie first: every new account gets one photo trend free, no card needed. Ghostface AI itself starts at $9.90 for a credit pack, with no watermark once you buy, and a run that fails costs nothing.
How much does Ghostface AI cost?
80 credits in HD (720p), 40 in standard (480p). A pack from $9.90 makes 2 in HD or 4 in standard, and a plan from $16.58/mo, billed yearly, makes 6 in HD a month. The Make button shows the total before it runs, and a run that fails gives the credits back.
What app makes the Ghostface AI video?
Reelfie (reelfie.app) makes it from one photo, with no prompt to write: the trend’s look is built in. It costs 80 credits, shown before it runs, and a run that fails costs nothing.
Is Reelfie the official Ghostface AI app?
No. Ghostface AI is a trend, and no app owns it. Reelfie (reelfie.app) is independent, not affiliated with TikTok, CapCut or the trend’s creators; it makes your own version from your photo.
Can I make Ghostface AI with ChatGPT, Gemini or CapCut?
Partly. ChatGPT and Gemini can write a prompt, and AI video tools, CapCut’s included, can turn a photo into a clip from it, usually after a few tries and with a watermark on free tiers. They don’t know this trend’s scene or timing. Here both are built in, so one photo is all it takes.
How long does it take?
Most videos are ready in 3 to 5 minutes. You can close the page; the video keeps going and waits for you in Assets.
Why does the face not look like me?
Usually the photo: side angle, low light or something covering the face. Try a clear front photo. If one doesn’t come out, you are not charged.
Can I post it on TikTok?
Yes. The video is vertical with the trend sound, and after your first purchase it has no watermark. Pick the trend’s sound when you post and your video also shows on that sound’s page.
Who can see my video?
Only you. It stays private in Assets until you create a share link.
What happens to my photos?
Your photos are deleted 7 days after upload and never used to train AI.
