Happy Halloween cards, spooky-sweet and handwritten.

A friendly pumpkin, a little ghost, a note in real ink. Send one to the grandkids, a college student far from home, or friends who throw the best costume party.

Order by Oct 16 for Halloween (an estimate from our real writing and mailing times).

Suggested messages

  • “Happy Halloween! Hope your costume is the talk of the street and your candy bag is heavy.”

  • “Sending you a few friendly ghosts and a big hug. Save me a peanut butter cup!”

  • “Have the happiest, spookiest Halloween. We miss you and can’t wait to see the costume photos.”

  • “Wishing you more treats than tricks this year. Love you lots!”

  • “Boo! Just a little note to say we’re thinking of you this Halloween.”

Questions

Yes. A real pen, guided by a handwriting machine, writes your Halloween message in the handwriting style you pick, in real ink. Then it is addressed by hand, stamped and mailed for you.

Of course. Write every word yourself, start from one of the suggested messages, or tell us a little about them and we draft it for you to edit.

Each holiday has an order-by date on this page and in the banner at the top of the site, worked out from our real writing and mailing times. Order by then and it should arrive before the day. You can also pick the exact day you want it to arrive.

No. The covers are friendly: a smiling pumpkin, a little ghost, a bat or a witch’s hat, drawn by hand in soft autumn colours. Nothing gory.
