What Vampire does
You start out as photographed, then the scene drops into darkness with rows of candles flickering behind you. Your skin pales, dark shadows form around your eyes, a high black collar rises at your neck, and you finish with a wide grin that shows two fangs.
A classic movie vampire
Your subject turns into an elegant movie vampire with a high collar cape and a candlelit castle behind them. Portraits work best.
Still looks like you
The video opens on your exact photo, so the face, hair, outfit and surroundings carry through the whole effect.
Ready for spooky season
A costume-free Halloween look for posts, party invites and profile videos. Spooky and fun, never gory.

How long is the Vampire video, and how long does it take?
