Ghost ASCII art is a fixture in Halloween Discord servers, horror and spooky aesthetic communities on Reddit and Tumblr, and seasonal greeting messages in October. The rounded sheet shape with arms spread and a simple face is the friendly ghost design rather than a menacing one. Medium renders the arms and face expression clearly. Small is compact and instantly recognizable as a ghost.
