How this list was compiled: Own work: 60 picture puzzles written for this site on 13 October 2026, 15 in each of four rounds: costumes and creatures, treats, the night itself, and spooky sayings. Nothing was copied from another quiz or list. Every answer is a Halloween word or phrase; none is a film, a show, a song, a brand or a person, and none repeats an answer or a row of the site's emoji quiz, its emoji charades list, its shower emoji games or its Christmas, Thanksgiving and winter emoji quizzes. The explanations say only how the pictures spell the answer and state no dates or history. The 15 sayings of Round 4 each have an entry in the English Wiktionary, read on 13 October 2026 (text under CC BY-SA 4.0), two of them under the dictionary's own form: blow the cobwebs away, and make no bones about. The same dictionary has entries for trick or treat, trunk or treat, jack-o'-lantern, candy corn, candy apple, rock candy, saltwater taffy, jawbreaker, glow stick, toadstool, cobweb and jump scare. Every emoji is a fully-qualified emoji of Emoji 12.0, checked against the Unicode Consortium's list (https://unicode.org/Public/emoji/12.0/emoji-test.txt), read on 13 October 2026. Levels are our own estimate. Licence: own work
How it works
This Halloween emoji quiz has 60 picture puzzles in four rounds: costumes and creatures, treats, the night itself and spooky sayings. Every answer is a Halloween word or phrase, never a film, and each row comes with four choices.
Read the full guide
Run it at a Halloween party
Put the page on a big screen and have teams shout A, B, C or D, one point a row. Keep team scores on paper, because the page counts for one player.
Print it for a class party
The question sheet starts with 20 rows and lettered choices, and takes more rows if you want a longer game. Tick the answer key to print it too. Hand one sheet to each pair and mark them together before the candy comes out.
Stuck on a hard row? Say the pictures aloud. A toad and a chair is a toad and a stool.
Questions and answers
Does the Halloween emoji quiz have answers?
Yes. Pick a choice and the right answer shows at once, with a line on how the pictures spell it. All 60 rows are also listed with their answers lower on this page, and the printed sheet comes with a key.
Is the Halloween emoji quiz suitable for kids?
Yes. The answers are costumes, candy, pumpkins and party games, with nothing gory. Any child who can read the choices can play Rounds 1 to 3. Round 4 is old sayings, such as witching hour, and is harder.
Which Halloween emoji rows are the hardest?
The sound-alikes. A scared face and a bird is scarecrow, a corn cob and a web is cobweb, and an elephant before a treat is trunk or treat. Every round has five easy rows, six medium and four hard.
