If you look carefully, there is a lot of detail in these nails. There are bats, a pumpkin and spider webs. These nails are more abstract, but they’re totally killing the Halloween vibes!

18. Candy Man Nails
These definitely win for the grossest nails out of these Halloween nail ideas. The nails look like actual skin that’s been engraved with words and cuts.
I’m sure if you’ve watched Candy Man, these nails will mean more to you, but horror movies are not for me. At least not if I want to sleep at night!
