How to get captions for your own photo

Ready-made captions are a good start, but your photo has its own costume, its own room and its own people in it. InTager is an iPhone and iPad app that looks at the picture itself and writes captions and hashtags for what is in it.

  1. Choose your Halloween photo from the gallery.
  2. Pick the Halloween mood (it is in the app until November 2) — or skip it.
  3. Tap Generate and look through the several captions you get back.
  4. Pick the caption you like and the hashtags you want.
  5. Tap Copy and paste both into your post.

Captions come in any of 17 languages. Ten generations are free, no account is needed, and after that there are one-time packs that never expire — no subscription.

Questions

When is Halloween 2026?

Halloween 2026 is on Saturday, October 31.

How many hashtags should I put on a Halloween post?

A handful that describe the photo works better than a long generic list. Take two or three from the section that matches your picture, add #halloween2026, and drop any tag that is not actually about what is in the photo.

What is a good short Halloween caption?

Short captions work best when they say one thing about the photo: "Hot glue, bad decisions, zero regrets" for a homemade costume, "Tiny ghost, big opinions" for a pet, or "Cobwebs: intentional, for once" for a decorated room.

Can I use these captions on TikTok or other apps?

Yes. The captions and hashtags on this page are free to copy, change and post anywhere, with no credit needed.

Can I get a caption written for my own Halloween photo?

Yes. InTager is an iPhone and iPad app: choose your photo, pick a mood, and it gives you several captions and a set of hashtags for what is in that picture, in 17 languages. The first ten generations are free and no account is needed.
