Free Downloadable Halloween Fonts



Hello and welcome to Countdown to Halloween!

To gear up for Halloween, you might want to take advantage of some of the free downloadable Halloween fonts that are available for use in invitations, newsletters, fliers, signs and crafts.




Warm Hot Chocolate has a roundup of the 16 different free Halloween fonts below and links to obtain them here.

The above is A Gothic Time











Fontenstein has "A Castle Full of Free Halloween Fonts" and after checking them out, you will see their castle is humongous.  To the left is an example of just a few that pop up if you click on the letter "G" to check out all the fonts that are named starting with that letter.




Fontspace
has a nice selection of downloadable Halloween fonts, such as "Face Your Fears", "Toxia" and "Zombie Holocaust".








 Zombie Font is a website where you type in what you want to say in Zombie on their site and it will turn your letters into letter zombies and you can save it.



The instructions on how to download vary by source so please be sure to read each sites instructions, but in general,  per the dafont, for all you need to download and unzip, but it then depend on the type of system that you have.

  • Windows 7/Vista: Right-click on the font files > "Install"
  • Windows XP: Put the font files into C:\Windows\Fonts
  • Mac OS X: Double-click the font file > "Install font" button.


Come back tomorrow for more ghoulish treats and be sure to check out the other participants of "Countdown to Halloween" and Happy Hauntings!
