Halloween and zombies go together like pumpkins and jack-o’-lanterns. There is something wonderfully creepy about the undead wandering through graveyards, stumbling around in tattered clothes, and showing up where you least expect them.
These Halloween coloring pages of zombies offer several different takes on the classic monster. Some are spooky, some are silly, and one proves that even zombies can apparently find true love.
Grab your crayons, colored pencils, or markers and give these undead characters a little life of their own.
🧟 Zombie Walking Through a Graveyard
A graveyard is just about the perfect setting for a zombie.
This coloring page features a zombie making its way through a cemetery, creating a classic Halloween scene filled with plenty of spooky atmosphere. You can keep the picture dark and creepy with gray tombstones, brown earth, and eerie shades of green, or turn the entire graveyard into a much more colorful Halloween world.
Try coloring the zombie with pale green or gray skin and giving its clothing a worn, mismatched appearance. Purple shadows, orange pumpkins, or a deep blue nighttime sky can add even more Halloween color to the scene.
For a particularly eerie effect, use different shades of gray around the cemetery while making the zombie stand out in brighter colors.
🧟♂️ A Whole Crowd of Funny Zombies
Not every zombie has to be terrifying.
The funny cartoon zombie characters in this collection lean into the sillier side of Halloween. Their exaggerated expressions, unusual hairstyles, torn clothing, and goofy undead appearances make them especially fun for anyone who prefers playful monsters over truly frightening ones.
This is also a great opportunity to forget about realistic colors.
Give one zombie bright green skin, another blue skin, and another a ridiculous purple complexion. Their clothing can be just as colorful. Orange shirts, striped pants, red shoes, or polka-dotted patches can turn your zombie horde into the strangest Halloween crowd imaginable.
You could even challenge everyone coloring the page to make each zombie completely different.

🪡 A Creepy-Cute Zombie Doll
This zombie doll combines two Halloween favorites: creepy toys and undead monsters.
Stitches and doll-like details make this design particularly fun to color because you can experiment with contrasting colors. Try pale skin with dark stitches, mismatched clothing, colorful patches, and oversized buttons.
Or make your zombie doll look as though it has been sitting forgotten in an attic for decades. Browns, faded reds, dusty blues, and muted greens can create a wonderfully old-fashioned appearance.
Of course, there is no rule saying a zombie doll has to be gloomy. Pink hair, turquoise clothing, purple stitches, and bright yellow buttons could turn it into an adorably strange Halloween character instead.
🎨 Create Your Own Classic Zombie
Another page in the collection focuses more closely on the zombie itself.
That makes it an excellent design for experimenting with all the little details that make a cartoon zombie look undead.
You could try:
- Green, gray, blue, or lavender zombie skin
- Dark circles beneath the eyes
- Red, purple, or black shadows
- Torn and patched clothing
- Muddy shoes and pants
- Wildly colored hair
- Different colors for stitches, scars, and bandages
For a traditional Halloween palette, combine orange, black, purple, green, and gray. For something more unusual, try neon colors and turn your zombie into a radioactive monster.

💀 Zombie Bride and Groom
Who says love has to end just because you are undead?
One of the most unusual pages in this collection features a zombie bride and groom holding hands. It is creepy, funny, and strangely sweet all at once.
There are lots of entertaining details you can add to a zombie wedding.
Give the bride an old ivory, gray, or even purple wedding dress. Add faded flowers to her bouquet and patches of dirt around the hem as though she just climbed out of the cemetery.
The groom could wear a traditional black suit—or something much more colorful. Torn sleeves, mismatched shoes, green skin, and spooky shadows can make the happy couple suitably undead.
You can even imagine an entire zombie wedding theme around them. Perhaps the wedding cake is covered in cobwebs, the flowers are wilted, and the reception takes place beneath a full moon in an old cemetery.
Apparently “’til death do us part” was only the beginning.
🖍️ Fun Ways to Color Your Zombies
Zombie coloring pages leave plenty of room for creativity because there is really no such thing as a wrong zombie color.
Traditional zombies often look great in sickly greens, grays, browns, and faded blues. You can create shadows with purple or dark gray and use brighter colors for ripped clothing and accessories.
But Halloween coloring does not have to be realistic.
Try a candy-colored zombie with pink skin and turquoise hair. Make a radioactive zombie with neon green and yellow. Create an icy zombie using pale blues and silver. You could even make a rainbow zombie covered in completely mismatched colors.
For an extra challenge, color the background first and then choose zombie colors that will stand out against it.
👻 Make It Part of a Halloween Coloring Day
A zombie page can easily become part of a larger Halloween activity.
Print or gather several different monster designs and let everyone choose a favorite. Zombies can join mummies, werewolves, cats, pumpkins, ghosts, and other Halloween characters for an entire afternoon of coloring.
For younger artists, start with simple Halloween coloring pages. Older kids and adults who enjoy smaller details may prefer our detailed Halloween coloring pages.
You can also combine coloring with our Halloween coloring activity sheets for a little more variety.
Finished zombie pictures can be displayed on the refrigerator, added to a Halloween bulletin board, or arranged together to create your own homemade gallery of the undead.
🎃 Cute Zombies or Creepy Zombies?
One of the fun things about zombie artwork is how easily the same monster can go from frightening to funny.
Dark shadows, muted colors, and gloomy backgrounds can make a zombie look like it stepped straight out of a spooky cemetery. Big eyes, bright colors, and silly clothes can turn essentially the same character into something cute enough for a children’s Halloween party.
There is room for both styles in this collection.

🧟 Bring the Undead Back to Life With Color
These Halloween zombie coloring pages offer a fun assortment of undead characters, from a lone zombie wandering through a cemetery to goofy cartoon monsters, a stitched zombie doll, and even a bride and groom celebrating eternal love in the most literal way possible.
Use traditional creepy colors or ignore tradition completely. Zombies are imaginary, so green skin, purple hair, orange clothes, and bright blue shoes are all perfectly acceptable.
Choose your favorite zombie, gather your coloring supplies, and see just how colorful the undead can become.
