A real one-photo test
Unedited 5-second 480p test made from one photo of an AI-generated character (not a real person), with the original instrumental. Results vary with your photo; your free preview carries a small watermark.
How to turn yourself into a zombie
- Choose Just me and upload one clear, front-facing photo — or Two of us with one photo per person.
- Create the free 5-second preview and check the transformation.
- Like it? Make the 10- or 15-second 720p version with credits — same photo, nothing to upload again.
- Post it on TikTok or Reels with your caption and #zombieaitrend.
What you get
- A real on-camera transformation, not a still filter: normal first, then zombie.
- A moonlit graveyard with fog and tombstones, shot like a horror movie in 9:16.
- Your face shape, hair and outfit stay recognisable under the makeup; no gore.
- Free 5-second preview first; credits only if you like it.

Questions people ask
What is the AI zombie trend?+
Short vertical clips where people use AI to turn themselves — or themselves and a friend — into a zombie: a normal shot, then pale skin, cloudy eyes, torn clothes and a slow zombie lurch toward the camera. It picks up every year before Halloween.
Is it a photo filter or a video?+
A video. You upload one photo and get a 9:16 clip where you start normal and transform on camera, in a foggy graveyard at night. A filter only changes a still photo.
Can I turn me and a friend into zombies?+
Yes. Choose “Two of us” and add one photo per person; you transform side by side. “Just me” needs only one photo.
Is it gory?+
No. It’s classic movie zombie makeup — grey-green skin, dark veins, cloudy eyes, torn clothes — with no blood or wounds, so it’s fine for most feeds.
Does it have sound?+
An original eerie instrumental with no vocals. You can keep it or add any trending sound from the TikTok or Instagram music library when you post.
How long is the video and what does it cost?+
A free 5-second preview (480p, watermarked, one per account), then 10 or 15 seconds at 720p with credits: 35 credits for 10 seconds, 50 for 15. Packs start at $9.99 (two full videos), no subscription; failed videos get their credits back.
Can I use someone else’s photo?+
Only with their OK — upload yourself or someone who agreed, and no celebrities.
