🎃 Jack O’Lantern Halloween Coloring Pages
Grab some crayons, colored pencils, or markers and choose your favorite pumpkin design below.
Each picture has its own personality, so you can stick with traditional orange-and-black Halloween colors or create something completely unexpected.
🎃 Classic Smiling Jack O’Lantern
Start with Halloween’s most famous decoration: a big carved pumpkin with a cheerful jack-o’-lantern face.
The bold pumpkin shape and simple facial features make this a fun choice when you want a classic Halloween coloring page without an overly complicated scene.
Try traditional orange for the pumpkin with a green or brown stem, or invent your own jack-o’-lantern using purple, green, blue, pink, or even rainbow colors.
⬇️ Download & Print: Open the jack-o’-lantern image above at full size, then save or print it for coloring. Add traditional Halloween colors or design a completely original pumpkin.
🏚️ Haunted House and Jack O’Lanterns
This coloring page creates an entire Halloween scene rather than focusing on just one pumpkin.
A haunted house surrounded by carved jack-o’-lanterns gives you plenty of opportunities to experiment with spooky nighttime colors. Try glowing orange pumpkins, dark purple skies, gray stone, shadowy windows, and touches of yellow to make the scene look as though it is lit by moonlight and candlelight.
You can make the house creepy and mysterious—or turn it into a colorful Halloween home ready for trick-or-treaters.
⬇️ Download & Print: Open the haunted-house coloring page above at full size, then save or print it. Color the pumpkins, house, sky, and surrounding Halloween details to create your own spooky October night.

🐈⬛ Cute Cat and Halloween Pumpkin
Not every Halloween picture needs to be scary.
This sweet coloring page pairs a cute cat with a Halloween pumpkin, making it a fun choice for children or anyone who prefers the adorable side of spooky season.
Color the cat black for a classic Halloween look, give it orange tabby stripes, make it snowy white, or turn it into a completely imaginary cat. Then decorate the pumpkin in bright autumn shades or give the entire picture an unusual color palette.
⬇️ Download & Print: Open the cat-and-pumpkin coloring page above at full size, then save or print it. Choose your favorite colors for the cat and create a festive Halloween pumpkin to go with it.

The final picture gives the traditional jack-o’-lantern a cute trick-or-treat makeover.
This kawaii-style pumpkin bag is filled with Halloween sweets and has a friendly smiling face, making it especially fun for anyone who loves cute Halloween artwork.
Color the pumpkin bag bright orange, then use lots of different colors for the candy spilling from the top. Or forget traditional Halloween colors entirely and create a pastel pumpkin bag filled with pink, blue, purple, and yellow treats.
⬇️ Download & Print: Open the kawaii jack-o’-lantern coloring page above at full size, then save or print it. Color the smiling pumpkin bag and fill its collection of Halloween sweets with as many colors as you like.
🖍️ Fun Ways to Color Your Jack O’Lanterns
Orange may be the traditional choice, but there are no rules when it comes to Halloween coloring pages.
Try combinations such as:
- Orange, black, and yellow for classic Halloween colors
- Purple, black, and silver for a mysterious look
- Orange, red, brown, and gold for autumn colors
- Green and purple for monster-inspired pumpkins
- Pink, lavender, and blue for a pastel Halloween
- Neon colors for a wild glowing-pumpkin effect
- Black, gray, and dark blue for a moonlit haunted-house scene
You can also add your own bats, stars, spiders, candy, ghosts, autumn leaves, cobwebs, or spooky backgrounds around the original artwork.
🖨️ How to Print the Coloring Pages
Choose the jack-o’-lantern coloring page you want to use and open the image at its full size.
From there, you can save the picture to your device or print it directly. Check the print preview before printing so the complete illustration fits comfortably on the page.
Regular white printer paper works well with crayons and colored pencils. If you plan to use markers, placing an extra sheet of paper underneath can help protect the surface below.
👻 Ways to Use Your Finished Pumpkin Pictures
Once your jack-o’-lanterns are colored, you do not have to put them away.
Use the finished pages as:
- Refrigerator art
- Halloween bedroom decorations
- Classroom bulletin-board displays
- Halloween party decorations
- Homemade Halloween cards
- Covers for Halloween activity books
- October craft projects
- Decorations for a pumpkin-themed party
You could also print all four pictures and make a small homemade Halloween coloring book.

🎃 Which Jack O’Lantern Will You Color First?
Each of these four pages shows a different side of Halloween.
Choose the classic smiling pumpkin for traditional Halloween fun, create a mysterious night around the haunted house, give the adorable cat its own Halloween color scheme, or fill the kawaii pumpkin treat bag with brightly colored candy.
Better yet—print all four and turn them into your own little pumpkin-themed Halloween coloring collection.
Happy coloring! 🎃🖍️
