Halloween 3D Live Wallpaper by Cyber Apps

Ever wanted a skeleton sneaking around on your smartphone's desktop? Halloween 3D Live Wallpaper enables you to do precisely that. Its live wallpaper is pretty simple at heart but undoubtedly sinister. Activate the wallpaper, and a skeleton almost dancing around the screen.

It's accompanied by a pumpkin and a relatively creepy backdrop of a giant moon, crow, and gravestone. Weirdly, though, it's fun to stare at.

Halloween Live Wallpaper by Cosmic Mobile Wallpapers

Bats are the critical part of this Halloween live wallpaper app, so if you love the creatures, you'll want to use this all year round. The wallpaper depicts bats flying across the screen at the speed you choose. 

At the bottom, you can see glowing pumpkins and the occasional ghost, but the app's real star is the many bats. They fly across the background of a moon that you can change the color of to suit your spooky taste.

Halloween Live Wallpaper by BlackBird Wallpapers

Halloween Live Wallpaper by BlackBird Wallpapers has two different creepy backgrounds. There's a castle that offers ghosts in a haunted house, along with a gothic cemetery with gargoyles, skulls, and tombstones. 

It's possible to change the type of night sky in the background, cause meteor rain effects, and interact with an animated witch who flies about on a broom. Fireflies can also be activated for a slightly more night-themed approach.

Cute Halloween Live Wallpaper by Live Wallpapers 3D

Halloween doesn't just have to be spooky and creepy. It can also be pretty cute, as demonstrated by Cute Halloween Live Wallpaper. The live wallpaper offers a cute animated kitten who loves to sit in a pumpkin all day. 

He keeps an eye on where your finger roams on the screen, and you can burst bubbles in front of him, too. Consider it a kind of stress relief throughout the day. There's also the option of three pumpkin faces and six different backgrounds.
