It’s spooky season! You’re watching classic Halloween movies, eating ghost-shaped candy, and going to costume parties — so why not celebrate with your weed too?
When consumed responsibly, cannabis is the perfect addition to your Halloween festivities. Even better yet, a horror-themed strain will keep the Halloween energy flowing. To get into the Halloween spirit, keep reading to learn our top 10 favorite ghoulish cannabis strains.
Ghost Train Haze
Ghost Train Haze is a strong sativa cross with a floral, citrusy taste. It’s commonly used to treat appetite loss, pain, and depression thanks to its high THC content. Some users enjoy this strain’s laser-like focus, while others treasure it for the contemplative mood it ushers in. It may be called Ghost Train Haze, but it won’t leave you feeling hazy at all!
Death by Cake OG
Death by Cake OG is a legendary cross between OG Kush Breath and Dolato. Its flavor evolves from fruity to grassy, as do its effects — small doses induce euphoria, while larger doses induce sedation. It’s great for easing depression and stimulating appetite. You’ll want any sweets you can get your hands on, which is convenient for the Halloween season (and further explains this strain’s name).
Witches Weed
Witches Weed gives a nice, energetic, and productive high that can make users feel more creative. These euphoric effects melt into a gentle, relaxing body high. It can also help people with social anxiety relax and feel less self-conscious. This strain will cast a spell on you, and you’ll be glad it did!
Hellfire OG
Hellfire OG is the child of the famous OG Kush and SFV OG Kush. Expect to feel relaxed and happy when you smoke this not-so-hellish strain. Thanks to its balanced hybrid effects, Hellfire OG makes for a great daytime or nighttime strain.
Frankenstein
Frankenstein is a pungent couch-locking, heavy-hitting 80% indica. Expect the munchies! Frankenstein, otherwise known as Dr. Frankenstein, is packed full of myrcene for a relaxing high. While Frankenstein might be scary, you don’t have to worry about paranoia with this strain.

Poison Glue
Poison Glue is the child of the legendary strains Durban Poison and Gorilla Glue #4. While it’s definitely not poison, the strain’s high THC content may not be suitable for beginners. But don’t worry — it won’t glue you to the couch either. Poison Glue’s sativa-dominant genetics will have you energized and ready to face whatever comes your way.
Ghost Candy
Sweet and earthy, Ghost Candy is a hybrid strain named after the white trichomes coating its surface. Ghost Candy will leave you feeling happy, uplifted, and ready to chat! If you’re looking for a strain to increase appetite and ease insomnia, this is the one. This niche strain is the perfect ghoulish strain to pull out at your Halloween party.
Zombie OG
Zombie OG is a cross between Blackberry and the well-known OG Kush. This strain will turn you into a sleepy, snack-craving zombie! Save it for when you get home at night and are ready to watch a Halloween movie with a bowl of popcorn or sweets. Zombie OG is also well-loved for its medicinal properties and can help treat pain and muscle spasms.
Jack the Ripper
While 17% THC may not sound like much compared to today’s crowded high-THC market, don’t let the number fool you. Jack the Ripper is an energizing sativa hybrid, but it still helps users relax with a lack of a heavy head high. Enjoy delicious notes of citrus and pine when you consume Jack the Ripper!
Hell Cat
Hell Cat is an uplifting sativa strain perfect for creative Halloween activities like costume-making or spookifying your home. You’ll get a buzz like no other, and Hell Cat isn’t for the faint of heart. If you’re looking for a true head high, Hell Cat is where it’s at.
Final Thoughts
It can be easy to overdo it on holidays like Halloween. Consume responsibly, starting with low doses and slowly working your way up. Give edibles ample time to kick in before taking more.
However, when consumed responsibly, a spooky strain is a fun, thoughtful touch to add to your Halloween celebration. Keep your eyes peeled for strains that didn’t make it onto the list — there may be some new ones this year.
We hope you get to enjoy a ghoulish strain this Halloween season!
