36 Free Halloween Coloring Pages to Print

36 free printables Any paper size 300 dpi No sign-up

Everything here is friendly-spooky rather than actually scary, which is the difference between a five-year-old coloring happily at the kitchen table and a five-year-old who suddenly needs the hall light left on. Witches in buckled hats, ghosts with round little faces, cats perched on jack-o'-lanterns that are smiling rather than snarling.

Click any drawing to print it. The sheet opens in a new tab and the print dialog does the rest, with every paper size your printer offers. Prefer a batch? Tap + on each drawing you want, then print the whole pile in one go from your pile.

The outlines are thick and fully closed, so crayons stay roughly where they belong and nobody fights a hairline gap in a bat's wing. Pick a drawing, hit the button, and the free printable PDF lands in your downloads folder. No account, no email, no watermark across the artwork.

Every sheet is a 300 dpi PDF and prints on any paper size your printer takes, US Letter and A4 included, so the black stays black instead of turning to gray mush.

What you will find on this page

Most of these drawings are animals who took the costume box seriously. A fox in a witch hat with potion bottles on a tree stump, a mouse wrapped in bandages out trick-or-treating, a pirate cat on a stack of pumpkins, a teddy bear who came as Frankenstein, a dog who has gone as a ghost and is pointing at something. The rest are carved pumpkins: on a fence, on a wagon, in a graveyard, or simply grinning at you.

Nothing on this page is frightening. Every face has a smile somewhere in it, which matters when a four-year-old is the one choosing.

Easy Halloween coloring pages for toddlers

The simplest sheets are the single pumpkins. One shape, one face, a stem and a couple of leaves, drawn with thick closed lines that a fat crayon cannot escape. A three-year-old finishes one in a sitting and still ends up with something that looks finished, which is the whole trick at that age. If that is what you came for, the pumpkin coloring pages are a page of nothing else.

Cute Halloween coloring pages rather than scary ones

This is where most of the page sits. Two bunnies having a picnic beside a carved pumpkin and cups of tea. Two raccoons in striped sweaters working through a pile of sweets. A hedgehog carrying a lantern through the forest at night. An owl in a top hat. If the candy is the part your child cares about, there is a whole set of candy coloring pages, and the monster coloring pages are round and friendly rather than fanged.

Halloween coloring pages for older kids and adults

A few sheets here reward someone who wants to sit down for an hour. A bear in a lab coat mixing potions in a pumpkin cauldron. A vampire cat among gourds with bats crossing the sky. A pumpkin carved with a skull, resting on a striped napkin. The spider webs are drawn strand by strand, so they take real patience to fill, and there are more of them on the spider coloring pages. For scenes with more going on, try the haunted house coloring pages, the skeleton coloring pages or the witch coloring pages, where the witches are mostly animals too. The bat coloring pages sit somewhere in between.

What to do with them once they are colored

Cut out the pumpkins and the bats, punch a hole in each and string them across a window. It costs a length of thread and it beats anything you can buy for the same money.

A colored sheet also works flat: tape a row of them along a hallway, use them as place mats on the table, or write a name across the bottom of each one and turn them into place cards. At a party, a table with printed sheets and a tub of crayons is the quietest corner in the house, and the one children come back to.

Once the last pumpkin is off the door, the fall coloring pages carry the same animals into November without the costumes.

Printing your halloween coloring pages

Are these halloween coloring pages really free?

Yes. Pick a drawing, hit the button, and the PDF is in your downloads folder. No account, no email address, and no watermark sitting across the middle of a pumpkin.

What paper size should I print on?

Whatever you have. Press Print and the browser dialog opens with a More settings panel listing every size your printer supports, US Letter and A4 among them. The sheet is built at 300 dpi for the size you choose, so the border stays even without touching the scale.

Can I print these for a classroom party?

Yes, and October is when most people do. Printing a stack for a class, a daycare group, a library session or a birthday party is fine and you do not need to ask us. Selling the files, or reposting them somewhere else as your own, is not.

What kind of paper works best?

Copy paper handles crayons and colored pencils without complaint. Orange markers are the ones that bleed, so if the plan is markers on pumpkins, print on something around 120 gsm and the next sheet in the stack survives.

Are these too scary for a small child?

No. The ghosts have round faces, the witches are mostly animals in hats, and the jack-o'-lanterns smile. The busiest sheets, the haunted houses and the sugar skulls, are the ones older children and adults tend to pick.

Can I use these as party decorations?

Yes. Colored sheets tape to a window well, and the square format means two of them side by side fill a standard sheet of poster board without trimming.
